Oh - forgot to mention the connection between Swinton Lions RLFC and Swinton Folk Club - The White Lion is where the 'Lions' originaly met! There are photos all over the walls of the Folk Club of famous past players. The name 'Lions' originated at the pub and all the Folk Clubs publicity incorporates a White Lion, Rampant - The same symbol used by the Rugby club:-)
