Enoch Mastoras pops up at the right end — 7.30
7.30, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.
Squad26 Oct 2026
Words exchanged at Salford City
Enoch Mastoras and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
Match24 Oct 2026
Salford City come up short against Bristol Rovers
Bristol Rovers left with the points after a 1‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.
Match24 Oct 2026
After 4 games, Salford City finally taste it again
The first defeat in 4 matches. The manager will say it had to come; the dressing room will say it did not have to come against Bristol Rovers; the supporters will say both, in that order, all week.

Kyrell Malcolm stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Kyrell Malcolm and Salford City agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
The dugout26 Oct 2026
A promise honoured at Salford City
Something was said to Enoch Mastoras and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

A mistake Stuart Moore will not forget
Goalkeepers do not get to make mistakes; they get to make goals. He made one, he knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

The view from the dugout
“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 1‑3 defeat, delivered by Matthew Price to a room that had heard them before.
The dugout26 Oct 2026
Stuart Moore is still being punished for one mistake
Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.
In brief
- Player ratings Kelly N'Mai will replay that one
- The dugout Kallum Cesay gets it from the manager
- Player ratings Daniel Chesters was unplayable
