Why would you be glad? I don’t really care where I go following City tbh. However, I don’t think it is right that a bunch of millionaires and billionaire should pluck a team like Salford out of nowhere, fund them drive prices up even further, picking off all the best players. It’s a plaything for them, something to keep them amused after their football careers. I just hope we have a competitive team, because I see teams like Salford as being part of the problem. Fans don’t matter anymore, they are there to enhance the experience. The EFL, PL and the FA, are growing richer at the same time as the playing field is being tipped even further, no such thing as an even playing field in football. They just turn a blind eye to it all.
Trying to support your team because you feel a good connection with your team, it’s heritage, and the players is laughed at by the ppl in power. There isn’t an answer as such, it will probably self destruct at some point as fans lose interest,stop subscribing to football tv, then the sponsors will dry up, etc etc.,

Give your head a shake. Who do you think Bradford City are? I have no problem with going to Salford. Salford to Bradford is like Bradford to Burnley. Burnley fan "Going to Bradford" Second fan responds "Wont be many". This type of attitude, dismissive attitude is ridiculous. Over the past 75 years we are a low division, low achieving, small football club. Why do we believe that Salford are beneath us? If one outcome of us dropping down is that we get rid of the 'Supporting Bradford City because you are a glory hunting bastard' crowd who seem to think that most teams are beneath us, I, for one, will be glad.

Just reinforces how utterly depressing it is we've suffered a completely avoidable relegation.
Salford was a project years in the making. I'd take their level of management and vision over their wealth. Committed owners with a clear vision. That's what we need imo.Stop hovering to collapse...

I don't get the hate at all. In fact, the largest cry I hear from us at the moment, is for Rupp to get his wallet out! If R&R had turned out like they actually promised, we'd be in the Championship on the back of a hefty investment leading to a new playing squad. That's all Salford did. And at least the owners of Salford are self made, local born millionaires. I suspect most people are just jealous.

They have since changed the kit colours to match Man United’s home kit, which I just find quite plastic from a team that is going to be a football league club. It’s almost as if Salford City are a younger brother of Man United, rather than a club continuing to have its original identity.
Salford City might have had success in gaining promotion to the football league, but I don’t believe it’s the same club which was supported by the original fans who followed the club prior to this takeover.
Anyway, if I can manage to get a ticket for Salford City away, I will go. However, it seems very likely that demand will outweigh supply.ConnecticutBantam, vladimir, Chad and 3 others like this. -
Not sure which is the more absurd suggestion that fans will lose interest or that Labour will gain power and regulate football payments

I wouldn't have had an issue with Salford City being promoted to where they have if they had kept the same traditions the club had before the ex-Man United players took over.
I don't have an issue with other teams like Fleetwood, Crawley or Stevenage for climbing up the leagues with a lot of money because they didn't change what the club was.ConnecticutBantam, Keefly Bantam, RonnieBrown and 1 other person like this.
