You can catch up with Salford City's latest news this Thursday in a new series on BBC. Remember, the two managers Bernard and Anthony are little bit fruity with their language, so make sure the kids are in bed. What you see is what you get.
Salford has had a flying start to their Vanarama National League North campaign, with an unbeaten start, having played 4 with 10 points and a goal difference of 6, they are 4th.
AFC Fylde, their hosts in the league tonight are a step ahead with 10 points and a goal difference of 9, lying 3rd. Fylde's manager Dave Challinor, very much a lad from the north west, having played at Tranmere, Bury and Stockport in his pomp, is looking for another victory over the "super stars".
Halifax Town and Harrogate Town sit above them both in 1st and 2nd place.
AFC Fylde have a fantastic new stadium. The Coasters, chaired by David Haythornthwaite, are at home in a £18 million new build. He vows to take the Lancashire club into the Football League by 2022. With crowd of 1500 plus they are beginning to make some money. Blackpool will be helping out by playing at Mill Farm in Brett Ormerod's testimonial.
The club crest is explained on this link. there is a bit of Latin but you know what this blog is all about-education, education, education: "Let the field be joyful".

The new complex includes the 6,000 seater stadium, 3G pitches for football and hockey, a fitness suite, several stores (including Aldi!!), restaurant and hotel, a sports' science facility, all employing over 500 people. Sited at Jct3 off the M55 it has excellent route links.
As a community club, AFC Fylde is forming a hub for local footballers of all ages; it's a great facility for the north west. Located in Wesham the club formed in 1988 when Kirkham Town merged with Wesham. Having had lots of success in the local Lancashire leagues, the North West Counties and winning the FA Vase in 2008, the club is definitely not to be "Fyled" away.
