I didn`t know about that feedback from Ebbsfleet, but it`s good to hear.

To be fair though, I think this is a slightly different situation. Because of the TV series Salford have got a far higher profile than Ebbsfleet at the moment; it`s also the nearest thing we have to a local derby this season. That might give one or two of our boneheaded brethren a reason to get it into what passes for their minds to cause a bit of trouble - especially in the absence of any segregation in most of the ground and after an intake of alcohol. You may be right, Dancing, and their may be no trouble at all. I hope you are. It just concerns me slightly.

Whatever does or doesn`t happen, I still can`t quite get my head around the logic of this `part all-ticket` set-up in these circumstances. It doesn`t seem to me to make any sort of sense.

I would say that FC Halifax would be our Derby.

Salford is a pain to get to because the ground is more nearer Prestwich than Salford. It's about 3 miles from Manchester Piccadilly and only way to get there is by driving or get the train and then walk to Chorlton Street and get the bus going out towards Bury and get off at Bury New Road.

When Salford played Stockport and Darlo there fans went in the home end because they didn't get enough tickets. Stockport fan I know told me that Salford gave them 500 tickets when they played them.
