Well, we made up for the damp squib at Durham by leathering Nantwich 6-1 at their own gaff on Saturday. Superb performance - well, what you could see through the fog, anyhow.

Barnolswick Town FC 1 - 1 Irlam FC [Silent Night Stadium
Irlam took a point at Barnoldswick town to hang on to 4th place. Decent game from arguably the best two actual footballing sides in the league.

Next up for Irlam is the 1st Division Trophy Quarter Final at home to Cheadle Town on Saturday followed by the League Cup 3rd Round tie against Premier Division side Bootle FC, also at home.

Nantwich 1 FC Utd 6 on Saturday. No idea where that came from. Kyle Wilson hat trick.



Salford City 1 Ossett 2 last night. Decent game however I'm not quite sure how Salford managed to lose.

FC at home on Saturday vs Worksop. First Saturday home game since December 12th.

From what limited views the highlights showed, FC played well. Good to see they've started to climb the table again too.



Don't shoot me if it's called off.

I'll be trying for the 4th/5th time to take the FC virginity from a few lads.

FC beat Worksop 2-0. Slowly climbing up the league now.



Salford won 1-0 at Garforth.

Tonight's FC United v Kendal Town game (UniBond Premier League) is OFF due to a frozen pitch.

Salford 1 Wakefield 1

I'd take that at The Willows this season

FC won away at Frickley, 2-0, on Saturday. Now up to 9th.

FC 3 North Ferriby 3. 6 goals, 2 red cards and 2 penalties so not a bad game. Goals: www.vimeo.com/9787719 Highlights: bit.ly/d8KYIo

Salford City 1 Bamber Bridge 2

Well this has been ignored recently, hasn't it?



FC have had a bit of a mixed back of results, 3 losses on the bounce including Durham City's first points of the season

had everyone a bit down, but we've improved greatly and recorded a 2-0 win at home to Mick Hucknall Town on Saturday. Should've been more. We're currently sitting in 10th place.

Salford City lost 4-3 at Bamber Bridge on Saturday and are down in 19th in the NPL Division 1 North.

Irlam are currently 7th in the North West Counties Division 1, they lost 3-1 at home to Holker Old Boys on Saturday.

FC lost 5-1 to millionaire owned Bradford Park Avenue last night, but no one gives a f**K because this morning the club have announced the proposed location of FC's new ground - Ten Acres Lane, Newton Heath.

Salford City make it 7 wins in a row taking them up to 11th spot in Unibond First Division North after a 1 - 0 away win at AFC Fylde

Whilst Salford are on the up, FC Utd have only won 1 out of the last 11. Got beat 4-1 at Boston yesterday.

Irlam FC started yesterday in 3rd place of the NWCFL Division 1 but, after losing 2-0 away to 2nd placed Stone Dominoes, finished the day in 6th. Next up are league leaders Barnoldswick Town at home on Tuesday night.

For anyone at a loose end next Saturday, 24thApril, 3.00 pm kick off Salford City at Moor Lane......

FREE ENTRY, for ALL, against Woodley Sports, final game of the season.

Good beer, Holts, good food, and if recent games have been anything to go by some quality football.

It doesn't matter how it happened, but result from last night was Leigh 2 Salford 1, first time I've seen a Leigh side beat won from Salford since the Challenge Cup in 2001

Couple of things from Moor Lane.
Salford City FC have confirmed that their management duo next season will be Darren Quick and Mark Molyneaux.( old news I know to some)
Also, Moor Lane ground was used to shoot a video for Shuttleworth`s World Cup Song Englands Heartbeat.
Available to view at The Times Online and various other places.

Just to keep the thread going, just 2 days short of a year,

tomorrow Saturday 24th July Salford City entertain Welsh league side Llandudno Town at Moor Lane kick off is 3.00 pm in their first friendly of the season

Most of last seasons squad have stayed on from what I`ve read. , should be interesting to see any new additions having a run out.

Salford City kick off their third campaign in the newly named Evo-Stick 1st Division North this coming Saturday, 21st August, when local rivals Trafford are the visitors to Moor Lane for a 3:00 pm start. After a stunning conclusion to the end of last season which saw the Ammies win 8 from 9 games to finish in a highly creditable 11th place there is a feeling of optimism that with a virtually unchanged squad coupled with the addition of a number of new players that a play-off place could well be achievable this time round.

Irlam FC currently sit at the top of the NWCFL Division 1 after two wins and a draw from their opening three games. Unfortunately, they were knocked out of the FA Cup at home by a decent Chadderton side.

Next game is away to undefated Wigan Robin Park at 3PM on Saturday. With their ground being right next to the DW Stadium and Chelsea visiting Wigan at 5:15PM all ticket holders for this game get discounted entry to watch Irlam-Wigan Robin Park.

Despite a below par performance Salford City will be more than happy with a share of the spoils at home to Trafford this afternoon. Trailing 2-0 with just a minute of normal time remaining and not having one decent shot on target all afternoon the Ammies sent their fans into raptures with substitute Ben Beresford heading in on 89 minutes and Steve Foster netting the equaliser just a minute later.


Salford's next league fixture is away at Prescot Cables on Tuesday night ko 7:45 pm.

Had my first taste of non-league action for the season last week by taking in Cheadle Town's giantkilling of Squires Gate in the FA Cup extra preliminary round. Missed the Salford-Trafford match yesterday but looking forward to Salford v Chorley in the FA Cup next Saturday. I think Chorley scored 6 yesterday so looks like a very tough ask.
