    Beat Newport in the EFL Trophy semi-final so will be appearing at Wembley against Portsmouth in their first season as a league side. Wonder how many tickets they'll sell?

    Probably quite a few to Manchester United fans I'd guess?

    The crowd at Wembley when they got promoted to the league was in the region of 8000.

    Great effort. Would be interested to know how much their owners have pumped into
    the Club thus far.? Employing Graham Alexander as Manager, signing a number of
    players with League experience and developing the Stadium to bring it up to EFL standards,
    must have cost quite an amount of money.

    Several of us in our village have formed a "Beer Club" with the idea of brewing our own beers and ciders.
    One of the couples are the parents of Jack Baldwin who played for Salford. Last year he played against us for Sunderland, then was dropped after their 4-5 home defeat to Coventry and later sent out on loan, ending up at Salford.
    I'm sure his parents will be chuffed for him tonight.

    Looks like Cam will get himself another medal and Portsmouth get back to back cup wins.
    I was listening to Gary Neville on FFP and his take is owners should be able to invest what they like ( as long as they have the funds) because otherwise the same clubs would always be top, because they are starting from a higher point.

    he would say that, I hope they lose every game whilst those lot run the club.

    Hate the fact they’re allowed to do what they’re doing, and sky promote it like they do.

    For the ground they got £400k grant. 2018 books show a cash injection of £2.4million in the shape of an interest free loan.

    Thing with Salford is people only talk about class of 92 but the largest shareholder with 40%(rest have 10% each) is Peter Lim who also owns Valencia.

    Well done Salford but I can't see anything but a Pompey win.
