Michael Rose signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Michael Rose commits to Salford City for another 3 years.

Mark Howard in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Salford City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

No hiding place for Michael Rose

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Michael Rose, and the manager let it.

Mark Howard was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Talks stall between Salford City and Kadeem Harris

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Nobody at Salford City has picked up the phone to Jorge Grant

36 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.

Words at Salford City training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matt Butcher is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Michael Rose asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.
