It's the Class of '92 against the host of Gillette Soccer Saturday tonight in the second round of the FA Cup as Salford City host Hartlepool United.
The Beeb will be keen to reiterate that the "part-owned by a Singaporean billionaire and the new manager of Valencia" club are the underdogs, but that's complete bollocks.
The Ammies got to this stage by knocking out the eternally shit Notts County while Pool defeated Midget Johnson's Cheltenham Town.
Will Jeff Stelling be in a happy mood tonight? Who knows. Coverage starts at 7:30pm on BBC Two with kick-off at 7:55pm UK time.
Salford: J Lynch, C Lynch, O’Halloran, Stopforth, Howson, Dawson, Hardcastle, Burton, Webber, Allen, Poole.
>Subs: Hulme, Dootson, Giverin, Moses, Mwasile.
Pool: Carson, Duckworth, Bates, Jackson, Carroll, Featherstone, Magnay, Gray, Oates, Mandron, Fenwick.
>Subs: Bartlett, Jones, Nearney, Harrison, Walker, Smith, Bingham.
Hartlepool cried about media bias towards Blyth Spartans last time, now they're facing BBC FC.
If Poolies lose, expect a tantrum.
>>63987024
I remember that match.
Hartlepool didn't even turn up in the second half.
Is it wrong that I want Hartlepool to win even though I'm from Boro?
Who /magic/ here?

I'd root for satan himself if it would get Salford City's dick out of the BBCs mouth

As a fan of an NPL side that DIDN'T buy their way there I can confirm everyone hates this bullshit. They pay big wages on some pretty good ex-pros and throw money at all their problems.
oh wow, they got promoted again, magical!
well there goes that
was fun guys
>>63987466
BBC has stakes in the club, so they'll keep pushing this BS
Ass of 92

I hope no one in Salford uses his painting business again
>>63987481
>BBC has stakes in the club
Que?
>>63987415
I genuinely can't understand how people think a club owned by half a dozen multi-millionaires are a quintessential non-league club

>muh beloved ex-players
>muh loads of honours
>muh banding together to buy a team
Is Hartlepool winning an upset at this stage?
They obviously have a lot less money than Salford.
>>63987528
Oh, I thought you meant they actually had a stake in them
>>63987415
It's a fucking joke, there are so many non-league clubs that could have genuinely done with the ~£35k extra you get for getting a game in the first two rounds televised.
Instead they give both dollops to Salford because it's near the new MediaCity and muh class of 92
WHY ARE YOU NOT AT THE GAME IT IS NOT SOLD OUT
>>63987528
>muh pumping money into a family club
>muh changing the kit to fit the Man Utd narrative
>muh alienating the fans and volunteers
Once they're inevitably a stable conference side the original Salford City folk will have long since been squeezed out of the club
>>63987551
Hartlepool need the cash though desu.

In both our (Blyth) recent cup runs the money helped secured our future and allowed us to build two new stands.
Giving money to a rich club like Salford does nothing, Poolies probably need it more than they do

Why do Hartlepool have a blue and white away kit.
>>63987606
What are ammies?
>>63987624
A nod to when they used to be called Salford Amateurs.
>>63987624
Like an amster innit, chubby little mouse thing
>>63987636
Because their normal blue and white stripes clash with Salford's red home kit according to the colourblind ref.
>>63987652
Are they Siberian Ammies?
I'm supposed to go to london tomorrow to see some friends on a night out but im a social shut in and its giving me anxiety.

"I liked them BEFORE they became mainstream."
Holy shit I didn't realise that Lawrence of Hartlepool died. RIP in piece desu.

It's like suddenly becoming friends with your neighbour as soon as you find out they've won the lottery.

We play them regularly and trust me, it never gets old

My boss is a Rammy fan, but he's a cock.
Is it usual for Mancunians to go to about 6 different club's games? He likes Man United, Bury, Rammy, FC United and Bolton.
Think this storm might knock me power out lads.
>>63988067
Since getting my new job I always work Saturdays, feels bad man coz I generally used to always go to at least 10 away games a season, tempted to pack it in.

>they've got big bodies in there
>>63988111
It's the Manchester United and FC United that gets me.
They do seem like a great, principled club, but I bet about half the FCUM fans are checking if Rooney's scored on the sly.
>>63988159
FCUM are no better than MK.
>>63988159
FC United are fucking weird
AGAINST MODERN FOOTBALL.. oh TV money, okay then!
>>63988142
It's ok to check on small local clubs from time to time, in a "oh, it's nice they won" without really caring much for them
>tfw that small non-league club is now gettting promoted into the championship
Weird feeling, not that I'd ever call myself a fan of them though
>>63988159
haha they'll be checking for awhile
LOVE, LOVE WILL TEAR US APART, AGAIN!
>>63988181
>MK
Triggered
>>63988159
to be fair FC United formed because people felt disconnected from Man U
You never really stop supporting your first club so I can understand it.
I'm expecting an FC Villa of Aston soon and I'd probably follow them if they happened.
>>63988159
Hows this any different than checking out your ex on social media
>>63988182
I thought they refused a TV slot recently because of the time of the match
>>63988186
Yeah I'll go to games at AFC Emley when Huddersfield aren't playing but I don't really care if they win, just something to do on a Saturday.
>>63988216
They tried, well they wrote a letter complaining about it
>>63988159
>>63988198
>switching your team
>>63988216
they entered the FA Cup knowing the TV rights then got shown on telly, took the money and had a feeble 'protest' at the match
A true protest club would have refused to compete
where the fuck is Gaz lads

FC /sp/ for the FA peoples cup? It was mostly the nearly dead and the blind by the look of the ad so we (well you) chubby fucks might be in with a shout.
>>63988296
If they didn't follow football before then they're still better than anyone who switched clubs.
And I really can't get upset about someone taking their kids to watch the local team.
Butt and Paul are just a couple of balls of charisma

GRIMSBY MENTIONED
I have a mate from MK who supports dons.
I see no problem with it.
>>63988233
They're still fans of the original club, FC United are basically just a protest club made up of Man United fans who want to believe the old ways are better.
>>63988368
ok? and?

They never took them to see Milton Keynes City though did they?
With local support they could easily have been a league club by now but instead they were too busy watching Man Utd on TV.
MK Dons are everything wrong with football.

The people still watching United on TV are what's wrong with football, MK fans are going to games.
And Milton Keynes City were never going to get a massive new ground funded by whatever supermarkets are next to it.
I don't know why people are still upset about it, Wimbledon have done well out of the deal and Milton Keynes got a proper football team. Everyone wins.

One of my favourite away days was at FC United when Giggs' brother played for them. It was literally a week after the scandal broke and all fifty or so of us were chanting, "Ryan Giggs shagged yer wife" for a solid 50 minutes.
