Dr Faustus Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Congrats to all those Salford fans of achieving their lifelong dream of seeing their side get to Wembley pricks i’m surrounded by them, Utd badges on one side of the car, Salford on the other. It’s like they are too lazy to support Utd, and just want some glory. They don’t know who they support. Still, a piss up down Wembley isn’t something to be shirked Quote
Ghana White Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Prestwich is getting a few Salford shirts about now, my mates long term Salford fan so pleased for him, some of the stories he's told me about the new Salford fans who you see giving it the bigun on Twitter are bizarre. Quote
Dr Faustus Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Aye, they’ll be some who remember shitty Moor Lane, and fat lads in garish orange, and fair play to those whose dreams are being realised... they’ll still be there if it goes to shit; I also understand that for some, this has already happened Quote
Salford Trotter Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) I know a few who are going down to watch them and 95% are Man Utd fans with City staying well away in the main because of the class of 92 connection. Still feels a bit of a protest club at the moment in the same way FC United was (they were relegated this season i think). One thing they do have is lots of cash so it won't go soft n smelly anytime soon as this is vanity project for those high profile figures. There is chatter about them buying the AJB stadium if they get into the EFL as Moor Lane is only fit upto League 1. Anyway i'll be watching Salford Reds v Hull KR next saturday at 2pm Edited May 6, 2019 by Salford Trotter Quote

I walked down to a pre season game last year and noticed a lot of united gear around. My mate was furious when they changed the kit. Said they'd lost their identity. Think he was right to be honest, like someone else just said you alienate half your potential customers. Quote

I'm very fair and even handed on this one. I hate both sets of cunts. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 No interest in either, though I'm curious as to the motives of the former utd players. Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 A dark day for football. And even more so when we play them in a competitive game next season. Quote

Ghana White Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 I'm worried there's a chance of them being higher then us in a years time. Piss poor attendance from them. Stockton town took more then double to Wembley when they got there for the vase. Quote
L/H White Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 hahahahaha https://twitter.com/SalfordCityFC/status/1135585493670924290 Quote
fester58 Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 for those who want a footy fix, mon 1sy july Atherton colls play there 1st pre season against Salford city. 2 newly promoted sides should be a decent run out for both teams kick off is 7-45pm. £5 adults £3 concessions. Quote
athywhite1958 Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 A great turnout of well over 1000 last night with half [at least] from Salford, the visitors won 1-0 in what was a good test for the Colls lads. Quote
Steejay Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 What a great attendance - good reward for all you guys' hard work. Might be tempted next Tuesday against Chorley. Quote

Have Athy got FCUM this season? FCUM bloke in our Warrington office going on about how much they are looking forward to local derbies when ribbed about them going down. Quote

It's a great set-up with really friendly guys volunteering. Good to contribute with entrance, programmes, pies, raffle tickets & beer. Managed to put a name to Athy White who turned out to have big love-in with my mate. 😘 They played for Laburnum together about 40+ years ago so good memories for them both. Also managed to get the future father in law pissed & we had to stop on the motorway back to Preston so that he didn't wet his pants! Nice little mid week outing... Quote
