Irlam FC took on AFC Liverpool at Valarie Park on Saturday. Irlam dominated the first 30 minutes but only had one goal to show for it. Liverpool took control in the 2nd half but good defence and MOM display from Irlam keeper kept Liverpool out. Irlam scored a second on the counter but Liverpool pulled one back 1 minute later to set up a nervous last 20 minutes. Irlam held on though and took the three points. There was a bit of banter with the AFC Liverpool crowd, who were quite vocal but very small in number due to "big" Liverpool playing.

Salford City play at the same ground this Saturday against Prescot Cables and the pitch is an absolute state.

Irlam's next game is away to Norton United in the 2nd round of the Division 1 Trophy.

FC lost 3-2 at home to Harrogate in the FA trophy on Saturday.

Away game at Kendal off tonight. Kendal at home in the league on Saturday.

Bet the Kettering lot loved that result, expect alot of them at our place in a weeks time. Potential Manchester United for the winners.

Saturday taught me to check the internet in the morning before setting off to Bury in just a t-shirt like an idiot.



I certainly won't be making that mistake again.

Playing for the first time in a fortnight Salford City fell to a disappointing 2-0 league home defeat at the hands of visiting Prescot Cables. Two lapses in defence in the first half did the damage with the Ammies unable to make any headway after the break as the rain came down and conditions got progressively worse.

Must have been bad to lose to that rabble



We drew 1-1 with FC Halifax Holier than Thou but still in the same tinpot league as the rest of us Town, the scrawpy Yorkshire gits equalising early on Sunday morning, 20 seconds before the final whistle.

Definitely a bad day at the office today. We gifted them two soft goals and were out muscled in all departments.

We are at the Shay next Saturday which is a game and ground that I'm looking forward to seeing. Would love to be the first team to dent their unbeaten home record!

Keep James Dean quiet and you've got a chance. If you haven't been before, the pubs near the station do a good pint (Pump Room and Three Pigeons) but, if you can, stand further out wide so that you don't bear the brunt of the moaning sods.

Just seen the highlights of this game on youtube.

FC drew 2-2 at Whitby. Awaiting match report from GT.

Salford City found it tough going at promotion favourites Halifax Town when they went down 6-1 at the Shay this afternoon. We certainly didn't deserve to be 3-0 down at half-time although the final scoreline reflected Halifax's second half
dominance.
The Ammies are back in league action this Tuesday ko 7:45pm when Mossley are the visitors.
