Memorable match. Challenge cup Friday February 28th 2003, craven park
Hull KR 2. Salford city reds 12. Tries, Hunte, littler. Goals clinch 2 Attendance 2553.
A proper old school cup tie on a bitterly cold Friday night. You couldn't tell the teams apart as the players were covered in mud on a bog of a pitch. Salford's defence was outstanding and we took are chances when they came through tries from Alan Hunte and Stuart Littler. This was a big win and played a massive part in the seasons success and getting promotion back to super league. We progressed to the quarter finals were we would face St. Helens at home!

Hull KR have had a season interrupted by a string of bad inuries to key players.
Will they be able to deal with the absence of their talisman Terry Campaise during this high pressure time of the season.
Of all the super league clubs involved in this middle 8 completion we feel they are the most in danger of relegation.
If Salford can keep their keep players fit and in form we should beat the Robins of Hull.
