I suppose I have to stick with my original thought...... anyone but Salford.

Two uninspiring finalists. Hopefully we won't have to worry about playing either of them next season.

Hit the target, decent strike nearly in the corner, keeper made a fantastic save and tipped it onto the post. Not really "missed".

This post from Twitter about sums it up:-

Salford City - the heartwarming story of four promotions in five seasons with little more than a striker on £4,000 a week and the unlimited backing of a Singaporean billionaire and six bored multi-millionaires.

Spot on Rob. What external money can do eh? Fair do's on Giggs, he is a Salford boy but the Singaporean billionaire - bollo***s to him and his team.

That said, where is the Newpôrt millionaire when we need him? We will need shedfulls of money just to keep up.

Don't want to rabbit on too much but the money effect is one thing that pi***s me off with the modern game. The team that I think I have most respect for (don't like them though) is Celtic 1967. Won the European cup with all players born within 25 miles of Glasgow City centre. A proper local team.

Hopefully Mike our little old team assembled on the cheap with little outside help can do the business this evening.

Would certainly agree with the last paragraph. And all left footers too.

There was only one result at Wembley yesterday

Football 0-1 Money

The limited amount of publicity that goes around at our level is now likely to be dominated (and possibly increased) by the love-in with the class of ‘92 (Salford themselves are pretty much incidental). Could the extra interest generated be good for football at our level?

Salford are already pretty unpopular but at least they’ve earned their place in the EFL rather than stealing away with another community’s club.

They weren't all left footers but they were a proper team, the in joke was that you could only tell who were RCs on a Friday when they ate fish.

It was another Glasgow club that only signed players from certain religious backgrounds.

Little known fact. Celtic have never had an all Catholic policy. No Celtic team has ever taken the field with an all Catholic XI. Further Jock Stein was ostracized by some of his 'friends' as he was a Protestant and they didn't like him managing Celtic.

Religion like politics has no place in football. I want County to win this evening and even if Mansfield's team was made up of far left Catholics, I'd still want County to win.
