Theres only one United

The FA Cup 3rd Qualifying Round draw has handed Salford City a potential
home tie against Blyth Spartans on October 10th if they are able to get past Hyde United one way or another.

Tomorrow night the Ammies travel to table topping Colwyn Bay for a difficult league fixture ko 7:45pm. I've got my passport ready!

Irlam took on Chadderton at Andrew Street on Saturday. The game ended in an entertaining 0-0 draw. Irlam dominated for the majority of the match but somehow didn't convert the copious amount of chances they had. Irlam had one player sent off and Chadderton had two dismissed for violent conduct.

Irlam's next game is against top of the league Stone Dominoes at Silver Street on Saturday.

To my shame I haven't been to a single Ammies game yet this season Despite the result, we had a good night there the other week. Chairman's missus even made us some butties while we stayed in their clubhouse til well after the game

County cup action tonight for us, grudge match at Atherton LR

FC vs Stalyvegas is on the Sunday so will hopefully get to both games that weekend.

Just back from Colwyn Bay and absolutely gutted with the result. Two goals in the last three minutes gave the home side a 3-2 win they hardly deserved after impressive debutant Domaine Rouse had twice put the Ammies in the lead. I think I need a drink

Hyde have had their winding up order rescinded so will probably be allowed to play in the FA Cup - believe they're playing Salford next Monday? As it decides whether or not we have a game on Grand Final Saturday, I think I'll be going along to that one.

Salford return to league action and in search of much needed win at Moor Lane this Saturday against Garforth Town kick off 3:00pm while the FA Cup 2nd qualifying round finally takes place at Hyde United on Tuesday 6th October 7:45pm.

Do Salford City sell their shirts anywhere other than Moor Lane on a matchday?

I noticed that, since the Swinton RLFC club shop on Station Road closed, Wilkinson's in Swinton have started to sell Swinton shirts.

I'm sure the Ammies could set up a similar arrangement with Wilkinson's or another store like that ..... although, then again, perhaps Salford RLFC should be looking at something along those lines too?!

Unfortunately our shirt sales are nowhere near good enough to be selling anywhere other than from our own clubhouse. Funnily enough three of us have ordered our new away strip today of green and white stripes which I think really looks smart.

Still can't believe that our game against Garforth Town finished 0-0 today. We had enough clear cut chances to have won at least 6-0. Definitely a case of two points dropped rather than one gained.

Next game at Hyde United in the FA Cup on Tuesday 6th October ko 7:45pm. Should be a very interesting night!

FC United came from 3-1 down yesterday to beat Stocksbridge Park Steels 4-3. Bloody marvellous it was, too. Carlos Roca, never doubted the lad.

Irlam earnt a somewhat fortunate draw against top of the league Stone Dominoes at Silver Street. Game finished 3-3 with Irlam going 2-0 up against the run of the play before conceding 3. Daz Green got the equaliser for Irlam in the 90th minute. Stone stay top whilst Irlam fall to 4th.

Next game is in two weeks (due to Irlam having a bye in the Vodkat League Challenge Cup) against Leek CSOB at home.
