0:00:04 > 0:00:06Go on, Salford, go on, Salford!

0:00:06 > 0:00:10Two years ago, five of Manchester United's most successful

0:00:10 > 0:00:13- players bought Salford City... - The hot chocolate's nice.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16..one of Britain's smallest football clubs.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18Some fans didn't want to change.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20It's not going to be the same ever again.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23Their team of part-timers were out-played on the pitch.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24Oh!

0:00:24 > 0:00:28- Hey!- And their leading goal-scorer was too busy off it.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30Why the BLEEP did we buy a football club?

0:00:30 > 0:00:33- Why?- So, it was out with the old guard...

0:00:35 > 0:00:37..and in with two of the league's toughest men.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40That, mate, is an embarrassment of a performance.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43- By the end of the first season... - Please can I have a new oven?

0:00:43 > 0:00:48- ..they'd made over the ground. - Hey!- Come on, Seddon!

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Their star striker found the net.

0:00:50 > 0:00:51CHEERING

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Easy, weren't it?

0:00:53 > 0:00:55There is a God.

0:00:56 > 0:01:01And an amazing winning streak won them promotion against all odds.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12Now the class of '92 face their second year in charge.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Dry yourself off, else them girls there won't kiss you.

0:01:14 > 0:01:18Salford's amazing FA Cup run grips the nation.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- COMMENTATOR:- Oh, what a goal!

0:01:21 > 0:01:24We're going to Wembley. Wembley!

0:01:24 > 0:01:27But off the pitch, there's trouble...

0:01:27 > 0:01:31Salford City Football were given a yellow card over the potential deadly E. coli.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34- I love it.- ..and a big day to prepare for.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37- I'm working so hard because I've got to pay for a wedding. - Don't talk crap.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Fans and owners dream of winning the league again.

0:01:40 > 0:01:41What do I want from this season?

0:01:41 > 0:01:43- Promotion.- Hey!

0:01:43 > 0:01:46But their star striker has lost his form.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49That's seven games I've not scored.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53If players aren't performing, they're not scoring, you've got to fear for your place.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54And the managers are losing it...

0:01:54 > 0:01:58- Do things right! - That sums this changing room up.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00..as the team crumble under pressure.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Yeah, we're not bothered, yeah, you don't care.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06This is where you need to be strong managers. Because it's the first real bad spell you've had.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09In their second year in charge...

0:02:09 > 0:02:11He's been paid a lot of money to do BLEEP all all season.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15..are the class of '92 still out of their league?

0:02:15 > 0:02:19- Oh, it's a penalty.- Knowing that nine months comes down to one moment,

0:02:19 > 0:02:21one decision, one shot.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24WOMAN SCREAMS

0:02:34 > 0:02:36It's Saturday, match day.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38We've got no spoons.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41Salford's joint manager, 31-year-old Bernard Morley,

0:02:41 > 0:02:43is at home with fiancee Jemma.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- INTERVIEWER:- Do you ever go and watch?- So, I really only go when I've...

0:02:47 > 0:02:48got someone to watch her.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51She's a part-time supporter at best.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Who's the one you come home to and moan about,

0:02:53 > 0:02:57and who's the one who experiences everything that you experience with?

0:02:57 > 0:02:59- You.- Right, then.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01- I don't know where the spoons are. - Look.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03What are you doing today while he's at football?

0:03:03 > 0:03:06I'm going to try my wedding dress on.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08We get married on the 14th of May.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12Er, at the Last Drop Village at Bolton.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14So she's a very, very lucky lady.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17Looking forward to the day. Think it will be a good day, you know,

0:03:17 > 0:03:20it's just a good day to celebrate with your friends and family, innit?

0:03:20 > 0:03:23And all the hard work we've done this season, if we was to win it,

0:03:23 > 0:03:26it would make the wedding better. Be good.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Don't tell me what Mummy looks like because I'm not allowed to see.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32- All right?- OK.

0:03:32 > 0:03:33Give me a kiss.

0:03:35 > 0:03:36See you later.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Good kicking.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47That's like daddy, that.

0:03:47 > 0:03:53Last year, 35-year-old Gareth Seddon was Salford's star striker.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57- Yes.- But this season, a torn ligament has stopped him from playing.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01That's a foul, referee, red card.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03This is where I've spent all my life, on here,

0:04:03 > 0:04:04just kicking a football around.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07The BLEEP neighbours used to go mental.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10I used to hit it in the garden all the time.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Mum had to pay for about five smashed windows.

0:04:15 > 0:04:20I got my results here off the physio. Grade two MCL tear.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24- Menisci lateral, collateral ligament damage.- Are you hoping you'll be

0:04:24 > 0:04:27able to get back, Gareth, playing this season?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29I've been out, what, eight weeks now?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32And I've probably got another six, seven weeks that I'm going to be out.

0:04:32 > 0:04:37And no matter how well I played last season, it don't count for anything,

0:04:37 > 0:04:40really. You know, football's cruel, innit?

0:04:40 > 0:04:45Let's just be positive, and let's hope your knee gets sorted quicker than

0:04:45 > 0:04:47- anticipated, eh?- Hmm.

0:04:52 > 0:04:56Bernard and co-manager, 33-year-old Anthony "Jonno" Johnson

0:04:56 > 0:04:59always drive to matches together.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01I need to know who's in the shortlist.

0:05:01 > 0:05:05- What, for my best man?- Yeah. - Sean's favourite.- James.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08- No.- You're not doing your brother, no? Sean, Sharpie.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10- No.- Sean, me.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- You and Sean.- There'll be another one.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16There's not another one. There's only you and Sean that actually really,

0:05:16 > 0:05:17really know me.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Why've you been mates for so long?

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Why have I been mates with him for so long?- Because of tunes like this.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26He ticks all of the boxes.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29- He's a friend.- Have a listen to this, you bad boy.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Woohoo! Because of shit like this.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34MUSIC STARTS: Dignity by Deacon Blue

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Are you ready?!

0:05:37 > 0:05:41# There's a man I meet, walks up our street

0:05:41 > 0:05:45# He's a worker for the council, has been 20 years... #

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Tell me this isn't a BLEEP tune. Here we go, now it kicks in.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Let's go, are we ready? Hold on tight.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57# And I'm telling this story

0:05:57 > 0:05:59# In a faraway scene

0:05:59 > 0:06:03# Sipping down raki and reading Maynard Keynes

0:06:03 > 0:06:07# And I'm thinking about home and all that means... #

0:06:08 > 0:06:10# Oh, Salford, we love you! #

0:06:10 > 0:06:14October 10th, Salford's ground, Moor Lane, is buzzing.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19The team have won both their games so far in their FA Cup campaign.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23Now they face Bradford Park Avenue.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28Victory would take them a step closer to winning one of English football's

0:06:28 > 0:06:31biggest prizes, the FA Cup.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34If we win today, that'll be the furthest we've ever gone,

0:06:34 > 0:06:35so it will be history for the club.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39There's only one game then until the first round proper,

0:06:39 > 0:06:40so it's a massive game.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43So hopefully there will be a few here today.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Karen Baird runs one of the biggest independent accountants

0:06:46 > 0:06:48in the North West.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51She's also Salford's chairman.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Six of the committee have gone on holiday today to Benidorm,

0:06:53 > 0:06:56so I've dragged my friend in to do the turnstiles.

0:06:56 > 0:07:00I like football, especially the Salford City players

0:07:00 > 0:07:02because they're all cute.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14Two years ago, Salford were lucky to get 70 people to watch them play.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Thank you.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Cheers, love.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22But this year's FA Cup fever means Babs Gaskill has never been busier.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26She's been serving fans their burgers and pies for the last 26 years.

0:07:27 > 0:07:31I like coming in here because of the banter and the cheek,

0:07:31 > 0:07:33yeah, that they give me.

0:07:33 > 0:07:37Can I borrow your hat? Hey, hey!

0:07:37 > 0:07:40It suits me better than you, don't it?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44It's big for the club

0:07:44 > 0:07:46and it's exciting for me, because I've not been this far

0:07:46 > 0:07:48in a cup before as a manager, or as a player.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51And, I suppose, if you get to do that once in your career

0:07:51 > 0:07:53you'll, sort of, retire a happy man.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Listen in, it all comes down to today.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57It's a one-off game, boys.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00We win today, we take it to Tuesday's game, don't we?

0:08:00 > 0:08:04Go and do what you get paid for and we'll give them a game, all right?

0:08:04 > 0:08:08These are exciting times for Salford's part-time players,

0:08:08 > 0:08:10like factory worker Steve Howson.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13- We've just got to go out there and take the game to them.- Come on!

0:08:13 > 0:08:16- Come on.- Enjoy yourselves. All right, son?

0:08:16 > 0:08:18It's rubbish when you're not playing.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22Massive game like today, and then you're not involved.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25It's crap.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28CHANTING

0:08:29 > 0:08:31- CROWD:- Salford!

0:08:31 > 0:08:34For us to get a good cup run, it'll be like a nod at that,

0:08:34 > 0:08:35and I'd be quite proud, actually.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'd be proud of the club, I'd be proud of everyone here.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41To get a televised game in the third round would be all right, wouldn't it?!

0:08:41 > 0:08:45Today, Salford are playing in their home colours, red.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52GASPING

0:08:54 > 0:08:57We weren't that bothered last year, really, about the FA Cup,

0:08:57 > 0:08:59because we wanted to gain promotion.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02But then I think when we realised this was important to the players...

0:09:02 > 0:09:05We take it for granted, you know, we've played in the FA Cup,

0:09:05 > 0:09:06we've been to FA Cup finals,

0:09:06 > 0:09:08but these lads actually want to get to...

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Their FA Cup final is the first round proper.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Gaz...!

0:09:13 > 0:09:16We're going to go four in the middle, yeah?

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Tell Scott to sit on his toes.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Bradford Park are a strong team from the league above.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24- CHEERING - Get in!

0:09:25 > 0:09:27Salford take an early lead...

0:09:31 > 0:09:33..but it's a struggle.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37And they give away a penalty.

0:09:37 > 0:09:42We're actually getting battered at the moment.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44CHEERING

0:09:46 > 0:09:48The game ends in a draw.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50The two sides now face a replay.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Can anyone tell me what formation we were playing second half?

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Come on, don't just sit there, sulking, tell me.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03- 4-3-1-2, weren't it? - It should have been, yeah.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06We did not play our formation today and we'll ask the questions.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Listen, I know you'll look away. Do you know why you look away?

0:10:08 > 0:10:12Because you're a coward. You let me and him down today with your performance.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Do you know what it were, mate? You didn't try.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16- And when you need a bollocking, you'll- BLEEP- get one.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18- You've not- BLEEP- bothered, you've not turned up,

0:10:18 > 0:10:21so as much as Jordan will take the shit, there's a few more, I'll tell you now.

0:10:21 > 0:10:25- So- BLEEP- go home and take a look at yourselves, and be- BLEEP- honest with it, yeah?

0:10:25 > 0:10:28- Get you showered. - SOLITARY CLAP

0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Don't- BLEEP- clap because it were shit.

0:10:39 > 0:10:43Jemma's brought her mum to see the wedding dress for the first time.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47It's going to be my dream day as well as Jemma's, so, yeah,

0:10:47 > 0:10:49I'm really looking forward to it.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51I'm so chuffed because he is a good man, Bern.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53- Are you ready?- Not quite.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56For Bernard, football is definitely number one.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00Jonno's probably the number two,

0:11:00 > 0:11:02his mum's probably number three,

0:11:02 > 0:11:05and then me and the kids all come after.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08# Do-do-do-do

0:11:08 > 0:11:10# Do-do-do-do. #

0:11:10 > 0:11:14It's a lovely fit, isn't it?

0:11:14 > 0:11:18- Stop it.- I'm not allowed to tell my daddy.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20- Pardon?- I'm not allowed to tell my daddy.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22You tell your dad that she looks like a princess.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25I'm not allowed because Daddy said.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27God help me on the day.

0:11:27 > 0:11:31- Sorry?- Beautiful.- It's beautiful.

0:11:31 > 0:11:36You're beautiful, but you're beautiful without this dress on.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38Thanks.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47HE SPEAKS SPANISH

0:11:54 > 0:11:59- Los fines de semana y del quince al 19th esta lleno.- Si.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01Phil Neville moved his family to Spain

0:12:01 > 0:12:05back in July when he became assistant manager at Valencia,

0:12:05 > 0:12:07one of the country's biggest clubs.

0:12:07 > 0:12:12I was on a driving range and Julie was working in a shop in Manchester

0:12:12 > 0:12:18and there was a call from Nuno, the manager of Valencia at the time,

0:12:18 > 0:12:21and he said, "Do you want to come and be my assistant?"

0:12:21 > 0:12:23And I said, "Yes."

0:12:25 > 0:12:29And I forgot to ask Julie, you know, that...

0:12:29 > 0:12:34"By the way, we're moving out to Spain, and we're moving to Valencia."

0:12:34 > 0:12:36There wasn't much discussion, really.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39Philip took the job, he packed his one suitcase and off he went,

0:12:39 > 0:12:41then I had literally two and a half weeks

0:12:41 > 0:12:44to come out here, find a house, find schools.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48- Schools, yeah.- I did curse him a few times, but, you know,

0:12:48 > 0:12:50I knew he always had a dream to play abroad,

0:12:50 > 0:12:53and for one reason or another that didn't turn out.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56So when this opportunity came along, I knew he wanted it,

0:12:56 > 0:12:59the minute he made the call to me because there's so many times that

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Philip's had offers that he's never even mentioned.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05So the fact he called me, and obviously he'd already accepted, I now know,

0:13:05 > 0:13:09I knew that he really wanted it and I would never stand in his way.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14The Nevilles might be 1,000 miles away from Salford,

0:13:14 > 0:13:16but events at Moor Lane still dominate the weekend.

0:13:16 > 0:13:20Every Saturday when we come and watch the game now,

0:13:20 > 0:13:22we always watch a Spanish game, and Harvey has, like,

0:13:22 > 0:13:25a notification on the phone every time something happens at Salford.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28Every time it beeps I'm always nervous.

0:13:28 > 0:13:32It's going to be difficult for us to maintain the level of commitment

0:13:32 > 0:13:34that we had last season, it's going to be difficult.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37You know, I am going to be in Spain a lot of the time.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39And, you know, we're not going to be at games.

0:13:39 > 0:13:40Some life, innit?

0:13:40 > 0:13:43Just lying down all day on your phone, you know what I mean?

0:13:43 > 0:13:46I was cleaning my dad's car when I was your age every Saturday.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50It's something that Jonno and Bernard have to probably

0:13:50 > 0:13:53learn as managers, that they have to retain the motivation

0:13:53 > 0:13:58without us always looking over them, and that's going to be the biggest test this year.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00- 2-0?- 2-0, last minute.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02- Oh, so you've won. - We've won.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Happy house for me.

0:14:14 > 0:14:18A footballer's career is usually over by the time they're 35,

0:14:18 > 0:14:22and Gareth's already planning for the future.

0:14:22 > 0:14:26He's bought a cheese shop with his girlfriend Melissa.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33I do think he's in for a massive shock, yeah,

0:14:33 > 0:14:34because he's never...

0:14:34 > 0:14:37He's never really worked, he's always made his living from

0:14:37 > 0:14:40football or modelling

0:14:40 > 0:14:44and it's just going to be a big difference for him.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47There's going to be issues that he's going to have to sort out.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Just, you know, stuff like that doesn't happen.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53He'd always had his life sorted out for him

0:14:53 > 0:14:57when he was playing football and modelling.

0:14:57 > 0:15:01So, yeah, I do think it is going to be a massive shock to his system.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06People will come in and say,

0:15:06 > 0:15:08"Oh, can you recommend a really good, strong cheese?"

0:15:08 > 0:15:10I frigging hate strong cheese.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12It's like sick on a cracker.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Seddon's got a cheese shop?

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Why the hell has he got a cheese shop?

0:15:16 > 0:15:19At one stage I was going to give up football and settle down

0:15:19 > 0:15:21with a bit of crumbly Lancashire.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25A cheese shop? Has Seddon opened a cheese shop?

0:15:25 > 0:15:31So we've got this one, Cornish Yarg, it's wrapped in nettle leaves.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Well, he's getting ready for life after football, isn't he?

0:15:33 > 0:15:35So why not?

0:15:35 > 0:15:38I am thinking about stuff to do after football

0:15:38 > 0:15:42because I am getting to that age now when, you know,

0:15:42 > 0:15:44it takes me about a week to recover from a game.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Obviously, everyone involved with Salford -

0:15:47 > 0:15:49they've all got jobs already.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52You know, and their football money is kind of like their bonus

0:15:52 > 0:15:56at the end of the week, whereas I've always relied on my football money as my wage.

0:15:56 > 0:16:00And because I left school and went straight into football as an apprentice,

0:16:00 > 0:16:04and I haven't got a trade, I haven't been in a work environment

0:16:04 > 0:16:05all my life...

0:16:05 > 0:16:09You know, it's basically just been football, you know,

0:16:09 > 0:16:11and a bit of modelling.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13But it's another challenge.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Nice presentation.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17I need to get the lads in. Do you know what?

0:16:17 > 0:16:19I was going to invite Jonno and Bernard in,

0:16:19 > 0:16:22but it's a little bit too sophisticated for them.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25Put them on the fucking back foot and back yourselves, yeah?

0:16:25 > 0:16:27The game is there for the taking.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30Have a bit of fucking pride in what you do, take care.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33A week after they drew with Bradford Park Avenue,

0:16:33 > 0:16:35the clubs meet for an FA Cup rematch.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Come on, Salford!

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Get on this side of him now.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44Salford are playing in blue.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- They're there for the taking. - It's such a tight game.

0:16:47 > 0:16:51It's either going to be one mistake or one bit of brilliance.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54Cross it. Brilliant! Go on, son!

0:16:54 > 0:16:57All bets are off when it's the FA Cup because

0:16:57 > 0:16:59so many things can be a leveller.

0:16:59 > 0:17:00It's that little bit of luck,

0:17:00 > 0:17:03it's that little bit of taking your chances.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05What a ball!

0:17:05 > 0:17:08This time Salford step up a level...

0:17:11 > 0:17:14- ..and score the game's only goal. - Brilliant!

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Salford are through to the next round,

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- the furthest the team has ever gone.- Get in!

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Cheers. Can you give us a programme as well, please?

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Gary Neville will be here, so will...

0:17:28 > 0:17:29Scholesy will turn up, I think.

0:17:29 > 0:17:34A week later, the FA Cup pitches Salford against Southport FC.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39- How did he miss that?- Fucking hell!

0:17:39 > 0:17:41GASPING

0:17:41 > 0:17:45I think we can win it but they're two leagues above us, they should win.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48We can win it because if you've watched the first 15 minutes,

0:17:48 > 0:17:50it don't look to be that much of a difference.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52It's a nerve-racking game...

0:17:52 > 0:17:53- Oh, my!- Fucking hell!

0:17:53 > 0:17:55..right up until the 69th minute...

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Go on.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Good ball! Ooh!

0:18:03 > 0:18:07..when Salford striker James Poole takes a chance from halfway.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11Get in!

0:18:13 > 0:18:16Great, innit, eh? Brilliant. Well deserved it.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19That is the greatest goal you'll ever see in your life.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21I just hit it, luckily it went in.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24Try that again another 100 times, 99 times it goes over the bar, but,

0:18:24 > 0:18:27thankfully, it went in today.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Fucking unbelievable, that, innit?

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- Are they just going to get bladdered now?- No, well...

0:18:33 > 0:18:35# Ain't no mountain high enough

0:18:35 > 0:18:39# Ain't no river wide enough... #

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Salford have made it through to the FA Cup's first round proper.

0:18:43 > 0:18:48Now they face English football's biggest clubs and the games will be

0:18:48 > 0:18:50broadcast live to the nation.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53As a personal note, it's a dream come true.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56I've wanted to play first round all my life, really.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59And now hopefully I'll get picked, or avoid injury,

0:18:59 > 0:19:02and get a game with whoever we draw in the first round,

0:19:02 > 0:19:05so we get on Match Of The Day.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Salford bought 29-year-old defender Steve Howson

0:19:15 > 0:19:17from rival club Ramsbottom.

0:19:17 > 0:19:21His grandparents have supported him since he was signed by

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Manchester United as a nine-year-old.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26You've been following us in the FA Cup journey.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29Yeah, and tomorrow night we've got to move the furniture round

0:19:29 > 0:19:32because all the neighbours are coming in to watch.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35That's when I signed for United, that, weren't it?

0:19:35 > 0:19:40Yeah, I was at United until about 13, something like that, wasn't it?

0:19:40 > 0:19:4413-year-old, 14-year-old, so there about four, five years.

0:19:44 > 0:19:45Harold's 84 and I'm 81.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48We never thought we'd ever see him on telly

0:19:48 > 0:19:51and now to see all this, and, like,

0:19:51 > 0:19:55everybody hasn't got a grandson that's doing this.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58It's wonderful. Yeah.

0:19:58 > 0:20:02It's quite emotional, actually, to hear your nan say some nice words about you, because usually...

0:20:02 > 0:20:05- You know...- I don't give you bad words!

0:20:05 > 0:20:08You've got to get out and show them what you can do.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18Ryan Giggs, class of '92 legend and part-owner of Salford,

0:20:18 > 0:20:20is also a local boy.

0:20:20 > 0:20:24Salford has been my home for over 32, 33 years.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27Salford means a lot to me because it's where I grew up,

0:20:27 > 0:20:29it's where I played football.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32I've never really thought about leaving. Why would you move?

0:20:32 > 0:20:36Ryan's family moved to Salford from Cardiff when he was six.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39You walk down the wrong road, you get beat up

0:20:39 > 0:20:41if they didn't recognise you.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44- INTERVIEWER:- Did that ever happen?

0:20:44 > 0:20:46No, I was quick.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51The goals would be there, the goals would be there.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55If I had a couple of mates then we'd just play 1-v-1 or 2-v-2

0:20:55 > 0:20:57and this would be the pitch.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02- Yeah. Hi, you all right? - All right?- Yeah, good, yeah.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06Ryan joined Manchester United on his 14th birthday.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Under-14 Salford boys, this is where we'd play our home games.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11So just loads of memories here.

0:21:11 > 0:21:17This is where Sir Alex first seen me play, along with Brian Kidd.

0:21:17 > 0:21:21It would be nice, the links that we've got with Salford,

0:21:21 > 0:21:25to give the people of Salford something to be proud of.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27See that building there?

0:21:27 > 0:21:29That used to be the only...

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Well, that was state-of-the-art cinema, it's closed now.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Down here, just where...

0:21:34 > 0:21:38Just behind this building here, that's where I used to get off the match bus,

0:21:38 > 0:21:42run to the stadium, watch the game,

0:21:42 > 0:21:44and just be home as quick as you can, really.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Get home for six o'clock and the A-Team, and burgers and chips.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55Salford are just days away from their TV debut,

0:21:55 > 0:21:58and the biggest match of their lives.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01In the meantime, the team and managers concentrate

0:22:01 > 0:22:02on their day jobs.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06Steve Howson works shifts at a local plastics factory.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09This goes on the back of carpets, the mats.

0:22:09 > 0:22:14It's fire retardant, so it stops your carpets going up in flames.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16Just come out of the way one sec, mate.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19I'll come right up and you can see it, it's miles better.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Bernard has worked as a ceiling fitter for his dad

0:22:21 > 0:22:23for the last 15 years.

0:22:23 > 0:22:25I've left that a little bit short there, pal,

0:22:25 > 0:22:28just in case we need to plumb that fucking corner.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33When he left the army in 2002, Jonno took a job as a lorry driver.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38Being in charge of a football club with my best mate

0:22:38 > 0:22:41is chasing the dream.

0:22:43 > 0:22:48When you work Monday to Friday doing what we do on average money,

0:22:48 > 0:22:51bang average money, and the thought of being on...

0:22:51 > 0:22:55Performing on TV for the boys, all the players, everyone at the club,

0:22:55 > 0:22:58the management, you become heroes for a couple of week.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00My workforce is between 60 and 100 workmen.

0:23:00 > 0:23:04Come Monday if we've won, I'll be special.

0:23:06 > 0:23:11It's the day before Salford face Notts County in the FA Cup.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Down at Moor Lane, the BBC's Match Of The Day team has arrived.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17We've widened the gates for them and they still can't get them in.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21The TV crew will be working with the 14 members of Salford's volunteer

0:23:21 > 0:23:23committee who run the club.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27They're all coming in now for the TV now, so you'll see how busy it gets now.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29There's a lot of press here today.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31It's getting very, very busy.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Bit of an eyesore at the moment with all of this,

0:23:33 > 0:23:36but it'll look better tonight.

0:23:36 > 0:23:40Too much to say. There you are, send her home like that.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44The committee are preparing for a sell-out crowd at the 60-year-old ground.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47As you can see, it's not the biggest of bars in the world.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49It holds around 150, 200 at a push,

0:23:49 > 0:23:53but we've had to put a temporary bar in the other end for Friday night.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55So hopefully we can cater for everyone.

0:23:55 > 0:24:01Even the pitch has been given a state-of-the-art rain cover.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Lovely, nice and firm, so we can tell everyone

0:24:03 > 0:24:05the game's definitely on.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09I am quite a competitive person.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13I think being a bad loser makes you win more, doesn't it?

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Ask Bernard and Jonno.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22- Do you think you'll cry if you win? - Yeah, probably.- Will you?

0:24:22 > 0:24:24- Cry?!- I think I might cry again, as well.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28Bern'll cry, Bern's more of a crier than me.

0:24:28 > 0:24:32- I'll have a breakdown.- If we win, the first thing I'll be doing is discussing bonuses.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34Yeah, and leave me some money.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38- I've got a broken boiler at home, just had a cold shower.- Jonno! - I promise.

0:24:38 > 0:24:42- I need some new carpet. - We need, we need some...

0:24:42 > 0:24:47- It's not about the money, it's about winning.- Yes, Jemma!

0:24:48 > 0:24:50What a night we have in store,

0:24:50 > 0:24:54it's Salford City of the Northern Premier League, Premier Division,

0:24:54 > 0:24:58the seventh tier of the English game, taking on Notts County of League Two.

0:24:59 > 0:25:021,400 people have piled into the ground

0:25:02 > 0:25:04for Salford's moment of glory.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11And three of the club's owners have turned up to see if their team can make history.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14We've got the biggest game playing Notts County at home.

0:25:14 > 0:25:20We're very, very busy, we've not stopped since we got here

0:25:20 > 0:25:24and I'm just trying my best to keep stocked up, keep everybody happy.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Because it's such a big game, I've got my daughter here working,

0:25:27 > 0:25:31my niece working, this is my son who's come to see the game,

0:25:31 > 0:25:35new bain-marie.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38See, I'm not doing bad, am I?

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Karen, how hard has it been for you to deal with

0:25:41 > 0:25:43the five superstars who've been involved with this club?

0:25:43 > 0:25:46They've been quite good, actually, they're easy to deal with.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Gary's the most demanding person you've ever met

0:25:48 > 0:25:50but, apart from that, it's been good.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52Yeah, they're all nice, normal, down-to-earth lads.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55I believe, this is true, you were a little underwhelmed

0:25:55 > 0:25:57when you first met Gary and Ryan.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59Just explain why for those who don't know.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01I'm a Liverpool fan.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05- Do you like them at all? - Oh, no, they're great, yeah.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Three million people are watching on television tonight,

0:26:08 > 0:26:11as the nation takes Salford City FC to its heart.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Salford, Salford, Salford!

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Everyone wants to see if this part-time team

0:26:16 > 0:26:19can become FA Cup heroes.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21This is where it all starts.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Salford, bring it on.

0:26:24 > 0:26:29It's a massive game for the club, you know, we're major, major underdogs.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33I think they are, like, three or four leagues above us. They're expected to win.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36I wish I were playing.

0:26:36 > 0:26:40It's moments like this, you know, it's why I joined the club.

0:26:40 > 0:26:45- COMMENTATOR:- The first time they have competed in the FA Cup first round.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48It is Salford in the red and white and immediately the ball

0:26:48 > 0:26:50is aimed towards Danny Webber.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53The home game against Notts County was just huge.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56At the back of your mind you're thinking, "Right, OK,

0:26:56 > 0:26:59"you're against a league team, and it's live on TV,

0:26:59 > 0:27:01"you could get a doing 4 or 5-0."

0:27:01 > 0:27:03You know, that's always at the back of your mind.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06- COMMENTATOR:- This is James Poole, the hero of the previous round.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10You're also so excited and confident that, you know, you can do it.

0:27:10 > 0:27:15I can't believe it. Three years ago, 47 we had on the ground,

0:27:15 > 0:27:19I took £35, I think, through me turnstile.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Look at it now, 1,400.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26We've never been down before, we live round the corner,

0:27:26 > 0:27:29and we thought we'd come stick our heads over the fence.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31Best seats in the house.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35- COMMENTATOR:- Notts County to get us under way in the second half.

0:27:35 > 0:27:37No changes from either manager, incidentally.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39It's a massive game for us.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41It's a massive game for the local community, as well.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43As you see, a massive turnout.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46- COMMENTATOR:- Here's straightaway James Poole,

0:27:46 > 0:27:48curling towards the back post!

0:27:52 > 0:27:57- COMMENTATOR:- Less than 20 seconds into the second half

0:27:57 > 0:28:00and it could be a golden goal.

0:28:00 > 0:28:041-0 to Salford, should have been three. Easy.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07They're all over them, aren't they? They've got all the possession.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09- COMMENTATOR:- He's looking more apprehensive.

0:28:09 > 0:28:15This is Richie Allen. Looking for some support, the substitute.

0:28:15 > 0:28:19Oh, and he's beaten all three of them.

0:28:19 > 0:28:21Allen again! Oh, what a goal!

0:28:23 > 0:28:30Richie Allen, the substitute has doubled Salford City's advantage.

0:28:30 > 0:28:34What an impact from the 29-year-old.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36Final few seconds now.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38A magical moment of history.

0:28:38 > 0:28:43Wherever this Salford City story takes them,

0:28:43 > 0:28:46this is a chapter they will never ever forget.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49You've got to remember this moment from the rest of our lives.

0:28:49 > 0:28:52Every time we come down here and there's 250, 300 people,

0:28:52 > 0:28:54we've got to remember this moment.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57- It's amazing. - Fucking hell, I'm ecstatic.

0:28:57 > 0:28:59I'm not swearing, I'm not allowed to swear...

0:28:59 > 0:29:03Absolutely fucking buzzing, mate. I'm delighted, honest.

0:29:03 > 0:29:06I'll tell you what, I can't even believe it, quality,

0:29:06 > 0:29:08great performance from all of the boys there.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10That's next round, bring them on.

0:29:10 > 0:29:13We're going to Wembley. Wembley!

0:29:13 > 0:29:16# We're the famous Salford City and we're going to Wembley!

0:29:16 > 0:29:18# Wembley!

0:29:18 > 0:29:19# Wembley! #

0:29:19 > 0:29:23I know it's an old cliche, but that's the magic of the FA Cup.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26Really frustrating for me. I'm gutted, really.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42I really... I really miss football.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44I really miss the...

0:29:44 > 0:29:48The, like, adrenaline. I thrive for that thrill.

0:29:48 > 0:29:51You know, scoring a goal, that's all...

0:29:51 > 0:29:54That's all I play football for at the minute.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58My dream would just to be a footballer.

0:29:58 > 0:30:02That's all I ever wanted to do, just make it as a professional, just...

0:30:03 > 0:30:06I wanted to play on telly,

0:30:06 > 0:30:10I wanted to have my name on my back when I was playing.

0:30:11 > 0:30:15When I was, like, 25, I played in the First Division.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18I was doing really well, then I ended up getting a blood disease.

0:30:18 > 0:30:22I didn't play for two and a half years, I had to retire.

0:30:22 > 0:30:29Physically got down to about 7st, couldn't eat.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32At one point even the doctors didn't think I was going to live,

0:30:32 > 0:30:34that's how serious it were,

0:30:34 > 0:30:36that's how scary it was.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40I never told my mum or my dad.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44I told them that I'd had a knee operation,

0:30:44 > 0:30:47so I had to stay down over Christmas.

0:30:47 > 0:30:52And I remember just sat on Christmas Day, all the lights were off,

0:30:52 > 0:30:55just sat on my own, just literally broke into tears,

0:30:55 > 0:30:58just wondering what was going to happen to me.

0:30:58 > 0:31:02It was just because I knew my dream were coming to an end.

0:31:12 > 0:31:19Babs Gaskill lives with her husband five miles from the ground.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21"Salford City Football was given a yellow card

0:31:21 > 0:31:23"over the state of the club's kitchen

0:31:23 > 0:31:25"after the warning from the inspector

0:31:25 > 0:31:28"over the potential deadly E. coli."

0:31:28 > 0:31:32A surprise visit to Moor Lane by Salford Council's food inspectors

0:31:32 > 0:31:34has made headlines.

0:31:34 > 0:31:36"The club was given a one-star...

0:31:36 > 0:31:41"A possibility of... One out of five by the inspector,

0:31:41 > 0:31:44"second lowest rating and told immediate work was needed

0:31:44 > 0:31:48"in safeguarding customers from dangerous E. coli."

0:31:48 > 0:31:50- INTERVIEWER: - What do you think of that?

0:31:50 > 0:31:51I think that's a load of crap.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58This is where the hard work starts.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06So, I've got to read through this.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08Allergies, and things like that,

0:32:08 > 0:32:11obviously things with nuts and everything like that in...

0:32:11 > 0:32:14When this paperwork gets done,

0:32:14 > 0:32:17and they're going to come back, we'll see what star we get.

0:32:17 > 0:32:21And if it's not a five, I will not be happy.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24It's nothing to do with the food and the hygiene and all that,

0:32:24 > 0:32:26it's to do with paperwork.

0:32:26 > 0:32:30There was no rats, there was no mice. I put them in the cupboard(!)

0:32:35 > 0:32:38Committee member and builder Jim Birtwistle

0:32:38 > 0:32:41has been a Salford fan for 20 years.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44After rebuilding the clubhouse at Moor Lane last season,

0:32:44 > 0:32:48he's now renovating his new home out in the countryside.

0:32:48 > 0:32:50There's no bathroom, there weren't when we bought it.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54So I'm going to put a bathroom up here, a little box room there,

0:32:54 > 0:32:57and this will be a big kitchen down here.

0:32:57 > 0:32:58And away we go.

0:32:58 > 0:33:02Jim's seen the club he loves change beyond recognition

0:33:02 > 0:33:04since the new owners took over.

0:33:04 > 0:33:06The crowds are getting big now.

0:33:06 > 0:33:09Well, I've been on those gates on a Tuesday night,

0:33:09 > 0:33:12and we've had 47 people in.

0:33:12 > 0:33:16And then all of a sudden you're getting 1,300 on a Tuesday night.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18I knew all them 47 by their first name -

0:33:18 > 0:33:22I can't remember 1,300, though, now. No chance!

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Do you want some on a small plate?

0:33:24 > 0:33:26How's it changed, Dad?

0:33:26 > 0:33:30It's changed fan-wise.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Yeah, there's a lot more that go now.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35It's changed because we've got in four times what we used to get.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38How long is it now that you've been doing it for?

0:33:38 > 0:33:40I built the turnstiles in my...

0:33:40 > 0:33:43When I was 40, you know?

0:33:43 > 0:33:45That's 15 years ago.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49I built the turnstiles them right on my 40th.

0:33:49 > 0:33:53- Ryan Giggs were on. - Now you're best mates.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55I never see him.

0:34:03 > 0:34:04- RADIO:- BBC 5 Live.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08Gary Neville has been appointed head coach of Valencia until the end of

0:34:08 > 0:34:11this season. The former Manchester United and England defender's first

0:34:11 > 0:34:14game in charge will be their Champions League tie

0:34:14 > 0:34:16against Lyon next Wednesday.

0:34:16 > 0:34:20Uno, dos, tres...

0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Do you want to go? - Yeah.- Why should I go?

0:34:24 > 0:34:30Because you can go in the swimming pool every day.

0:34:30 > 0:34:33I was minding my own business, doing what I've been doing for the last few years,

0:34:33 > 0:34:36then I got a phone call saying can I go over

0:34:36 > 0:34:39and do the job for them until the end of the season?

0:34:39 > 0:34:44- Will you miss school?- Yeah. - Will you miss any people?

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- Ellie, Scarlet, Olivia. - Savanna.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48I like to plan everything.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52I think, from my point of view, this is the first time

0:34:52 > 0:34:54where I've done something where it hasn't been planned,

0:34:54 > 0:34:56but actually it feels right.

0:34:56 > 0:34:58Can you come and translate for me?

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Yeah, Mr Gary Neville has been appointed manager of Valencia...

0:35:05 > 0:35:07..as from today, so I believe.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09It won't make any difference.

0:35:09 > 0:35:11I didn't know nothing about it, to be quite honest,

0:35:11 > 0:35:13and it's come as a surprise to me, yeah.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16We just don't see him here at the ground, that's all.

0:35:16 > 0:35:18It'll still be all right.

0:35:18 > 0:35:19We'll still run it.

0:35:19 > 0:35:23I always said that at different points in the next

0:35:23 > 0:35:26ten, 15 years, other people would have to step up to the plate

0:35:26 > 0:35:28at different points.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30'But that is why also we have the committee.'

0:35:30 > 0:35:33It's why we have Karen, it's why we have Dave, the president,

0:35:33 > 0:35:36it's why we have Bill and Jim, all the people that work there.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39And Karen, at the head of it, is the big driving force.

0:35:40 > 0:35:44The wettest December on record has given the committee

0:35:44 > 0:35:46other things to worry about at Moor Lane.

0:35:46 > 0:35:51Since the Notts County game here, it's never recovered.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Our own water feature. We need some ducks.

0:36:02 > 0:36:06Three days after they appeared on Match Of The Day,

0:36:06 > 0:36:08Salford's squad are back in training.

0:36:08 > 0:36:11- 15st.- 15st, that's not bad.- 15st.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15Tell us about Saturday night, Jordy lad, anyway.

0:36:15 > 0:36:19He's tried to buy the underwear Jordan was wearing

0:36:19 > 0:36:22in the game on Friday on the telly.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25Everyone else has been getting birds messaging them,

0:36:25 > 0:36:30I've had a 30-year-old bloke message me asking if he can have my...

0:36:30 > 0:36:36He called them briefs, that I was wearing for the game on Friday.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39He said, "Preferably with a picture of you in them."

0:36:39 > 0:36:43- Strange character.- I know this woman who makes a living out of wearing

0:36:43 > 0:36:46knickers and bras and selling them on eBay.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48We know somebody...

0:36:48 > 0:36:51I shouldn't really let my mum's secrets out,

0:36:51 > 0:36:53but she's not bothered.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56Yeah, she'll make more money now.

0:37:04 > 0:37:09# Money talks but it don't sing and dance

0:37:09 > 0:37:13# And it don't walk

0:37:13 > 0:37:17# As long as I can have you here with me

0:37:17 > 0:37:22# I'd much rather be forever in blue jeans

0:37:25 > 0:37:28# Money talks

0:37:28 > 0:37:33# But it don't sing and dance and it don't walk

0:37:33 > 0:37:38# As long as I can have you here with me

0:37:38 > 0:37:40# I'd much rather be...

0:37:40 > 0:37:43# Forever in blue jeans. #

0:37:43 > 0:37:47Against all the odds, Salford are through to the FA Cup's second round.

0:37:47 > 0:37:52Now they face Hartlepool United, a team three leagues above them.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54This is your last chance, there's no replay after this.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57You've got fucking 90 minutes, maybe 120, and penalties.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00Don't fucking let yourselves down, don't leave fuck all in here.

0:38:00 > 0:38:04This is your reward, boys. You 11 have been picked for tonight, yeah?

0:38:04 > 0:38:07It's not a fucking final, it doesn't have to end now, that's down to yous.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Go out and enjoy it and embrace what it is.

0:38:13 > 0:38:17For the first time in three months, Seddon is fit to play,

0:38:17 > 0:38:19but he's still on the bench.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21It's going to be a tight game, isn't it?

0:38:21 > 0:38:24Just keep it at 0-0, ten minutes to go

0:38:24 > 0:38:26bring the big man on,

0:38:26 > 0:38:29flash one in with my teeth, or something.

0:38:29 > 0:38:30Salford! Salford!

0:38:30 > 0:38:33Tonight's game will be televised,

0:38:33 > 0:38:37and it's one they have to win to keep their FA Cup hopes alive.

0:38:37 > 0:38:39It is a balmy Tuesday evening,

0:38:39 > 0:38:41and a small pocket of people from Salford

0:38:41 > 0:38:45have made the arduous journey to Hartlepool.

0:38:45 > 0:38:48And I think we've edged it so far, we just need to get a goal.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51- COMMENTATOR:- Salford City trying to ratchet things up

0:38:51 > 0:38:55in the second half of this second round replay.

0:38:55 > 0:38:56GASPING

0:38:56 > 0:39:01- COMMENTATOR:- Oh, tried to curl one, it's kept out by Carson.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03Hartlepool trying to click into gear.

0:39:03 > 0:39:07They've been outplayed, out-thought in this replay.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10CHANTING

0:39:11 > 0:39:15Salford dominate against Hartlepool's professional side,

0:39:15 > 0:39:17but they just can't score.

0:39:17 > 0:39:18Fucking me a man.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21Be a fucking monster out there for us.

0:39:21 > 0:39:25In the 82nd minute, Jonno and Bernard bring Seddon on.

0:39:27 > 0:39:29- COMMENTATOR:- Gareth Seddon, he tried one.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32It was maybe a bit optimistic.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35If we lost now, we'd absolutely murder them.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37- COMMENTATOR: - Seddon, carries it forwards.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40If they were to nick one now it would be absolutely gutting.

0:39:40 > 0:39:44It's a better ball, Scott Fenwick...

0:39:46 > 0:39:48Looks in position, there's the header!

0:39:48 > 0:39:49There's the goal from Scott Fenwick!

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Breakthrough for Hartlepool!

0:39:57 > 0:40:02In the final minutes of the game, Hartlepool score twice.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05Salford's FA Cup dream is over.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08- COMMENTATOR:- But Anthony Johnson and Bernard Morley,

0:40:08 > 0:40:10the co-managers, have every reason

0:40:10 > 0:40:16to be delighted with the attitude shown by all the players,

0:40:16 > 0:40:18all the men wearing red and white,

0:40:18 > 0:40:22they've given so much, but they will go no further.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26Devastated. Devastated for the team, for the boys,

0:40:26 > 0:40:29the boys were brave, trying to get the win,

0:40:29 > 0:40:31and unfortunately we got done on the break.

0:40:31 > 0:40:34Go away and take stock of what you've achieved.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37You've been clapped off by fucking 4,000 fans, not just our own.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41You're a fucking... Everyone here is a credit to each other.

0:40:41 > 0:40:42Enjoy it. All right?

0:40:42 > 0:40:44We get our heads up and we go again, don't we?

0:40:44 > 0:40:46- Well done, boys.- Well done, boys. - APPLAUSE

0:40:46 > 0:40:50Devastated, to be honest with you.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52I think they're lucky, very lucky.

0:40:55 > 0:41:00Just got to pick ourselves up for Saturday,

0:41:00 > 0:41:05training Thursday, concentrate on the league.

0:41:15 > 0:41:16Thank you.

0:41:16 > 0:41:20After the highs of the FA Cup, it's back to the daily grind.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23The position is group finance director.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25I oversee all the different offices, really,

0:41:25 > 0:41:27the finances for all the offices.

0:41:33 > 0:41:34None of us work for the love of it.

0:41:34 > 0:41:35Well, I certainly don't.

0:41:35 > 0:41:41I work to pay the bills and put food on the table for my family.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43The ideal scenario is that we do this full-time,

0:41:43 > 0:41:45but unfortunately that's not come yet,

0:41:45 > 0:41:50so we've got to keep...head down and punching until we get there.

0:41:50 > 0:41:54Bernard's now juggling work, football and his wedding,

0:41:54 > 0:41:56which is just four months away.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59LAUGHTER

0:41:59 > 0:42:01You're not meant to laugh, Jemma.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04Aw, you're cute.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Jemma, she sees me getting up at ten to five every morning,

0:42:06 > 0:42:09saying the same thing, "I'm sick of this" -

0:42:09 > 0:42:11you know, going to football...

0:42:11 > 0:42:13Going to work with football on your mind,

0:42:13 > 0:42:15instead of going to work with work on your mind.

0:42:15 > 0:42:16That's not who I am.

0:42:16 > 0:42:20I've started making mistakes at work, which I never used to do.

0:42:20 > 0:42:22I used to be focused on just what I did at work.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24Well, this is why it is getting tougher, love.

0:42:24 > 0:42:26You'll probably have to cut your days down at work.

0:42:26 > 0:42:29You can't carry on working the way you're working and doing football -

0:42:29 > 0:42:31like you said, you're making mistakes.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34- That's the sacrifice. - You're working too hard.

0:42:34 > 0:42:37I'm working too hard cos I've got to pay for a wedding.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Don't talk crap.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45It's January.

0:42:45 > 0:42:46Gareth's back in the team,

0:42:46 > 0:42:49and tonight he is getting ready for a league match

0:42:49 > 0:42:51against Nantwich Town FC.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54The friggin' lock's gone on the door.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56My boots are downstairs.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58It can only happen to me, this.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00How do you get locked out of your own house?

0:43:00 > 0:43:04It wouldn't have mattered if it had flipping happened yesterday -

0:43:04 > 0:43:07it happens ten minutes before setting off for football.

0:43:07 > 0:43:10I won't even know what to do, Gaz.

0:43:10 > 0:43:12That's it, you play with the cat.

0:43:12 > 0:43:13I don't get it!

0:43:13 > 0:43:15Fuck's sake.

0:43:15 > 0:43:18I'll have to borrow some boots, I think.

0:43:18 > 0:43:20Not tell the gaffer.

0:43:25 > 0:43:28Despite the excitement of their FA Cup run,

0:43:28 > 0:43:32Salford's real focus now has to be on winning the league.

0:43:34 > 0:43:38Only the first-place team wins automatic promotion.

0:43:38 > 0:43:39Oh...!

0:43:39 > 0:43:41Good effort. Good effort.

0:43:45 > 0:43:48But by January, they're third from top.

0:43:51 > 0:43:54The managers need Gareth Seddon to find his form

0:43:54 > 0:43:55to keep promotion hopes alive.

0:43:57 > 0:43:59CROWD GROANS

0:43:59 > 0:44:01But their star can't find the net.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03I haven't scored since before I was injured.

0:44:03 > 0:44:04Five month.

0:44:06 > 0:44:08That's five games I haven't scored.

0:44:08 > 0:44:11Feeling a bit of pressure. It's getting to me.

0:44:11 > 0:44:14I think about it every day - "I'm going to score Saturday."

0:44:17 > 0:44:19Chairman Karen's arranged a call

0:44:19 > 0:44:22with the managers and Gary Neville in Spain

0:44:22 > 0:44:25to discuss plans to strengthen the squad.

0:44:25 > 0:44:26Right, we're just talking about players

0:44:26 > 0:44:30and whether we need anything for the rest of the season, really.

0:44:56 > 0:44:58It's getting them, it's not that easy,

0:44:58 > 0:45:00because we put bids in on one, didn't we, lads?

0:45:00 > 0:45:02They just wanted silly money, they wanted double the money

0:45:02 > 0:45:04cos it's us, that's the problem.

0:45:04 > 0:45:07He's right, we don't mind spending it if they're worth it,

0:45:07 > 0:45:09but not doubling it up if they're not, so...

0:45:09 > 0:45:12We just can't sign a player for love nor money.

0:45:12 > 0:45:14We have a responsibility to our club to improve,

0:45:14 > 0:45:17but we also have a responsibility to ourselves not to have,

0:45:17 > 0:45:20if you like, the mickey taken out of us

0:45:20 > 0:45:23to the point where we are just basically being used as a cash cow

0:45:23 > 0:45:24for other clubs, or players,

0:45:24 > 0:45:27and because we can't strengthen at this moment in time,

0:45:27 > 0:45:29because no-one will do business with us,

0:45:29 > 0:45:32and nobody will give us a player, then we've got we've got.

0:45:32 > 0:45:35If we get any injuries, sendings off, we're struggling.

0:45:47 > 0:45:51I'll be 56 this year.

0:45:51 > 0:45:5356 in May.

0:45:53 > 0:45:56I mean, how this started was my husband taking the kids up

0:45:56 > 0:46:01when they was little - "Come up and watch a game."

0:46:01 > 0:46:06And then when the people finished who used to do it, you know,

0:46:06 > 0:46:07"Can you just help out?"

0:46:07 > 0:46:09And that's what it's been since.

0:46:09 > 0:46:12My day job is I am a machinist.

0:46:12 > 0:46:14I do 39 hours.

0:46:14 > 0:46:17Some nights I don't get home until quarter to six.

0:46:19 > 0:46:22Then I come home and make the tea.

0:46:22 > 0:46:25Go to my mother-in-law three times a week,

0:46:25 > 0:46:29make sure she's all right, and she's got everything, you know,

0:46:29 > 0:46:31she's getting looked after.

0:46:31 > 0:46:33I look after the football...

0:46:33 > 0:46:35All in a day's work.

0:46:35 > 0:46:37If she wasn't busy already,

0:46:37 > 0:46:41her one-star review has landed Babs with extra homework.

0:46:41 > 0:46:43"All the kitchens are cleaned?"

0:46:43 > 0:46:45Yes. "All the structures."

0:46:45 > 0:46:48"Everything's clean and tidied away." Yes.

0:46:48 > 0:46:49Never had to do this before.

0:46:49 > 0:46:54What they want to see is that I'm doing a record of every game.

0:46:54 > 0:46:57Temperatures, things like that.

0:46:57 > 0:46:58Now, this is a voluntary job.

0:46:59 > 0:47:03I don't get paid, never been paid,

0:47:03 > 0:47:06but this is what you have to do now.

0:47:13 > 0:47:1410pm, Wednesday.

0:47:14 > 0:47:17Karen's on the phone to Jonno.

0:47:19 > 0:47:21- Hello?- Hi, chick, you OK?

0:47:21 > 0:47:23Yeah, you?

0:47:23 > 0:47:25Yeah. How hard is it to sign a player?

0:47:25 > 0:47:28You tell me. Is it done?

0:47:28 > 0:47:30- Yeah, done.- Is it?

0:47:30 > 0:47:31Yeah, they've agreed now,

0:47:31 > 0:47:33they've come back to the original one.

0:47:33 > 0:47:35I said no and they've come back and said yes now.

0:47:35 > 0:47:37Brilliant. That's great news, that, boss.

0:47:37 > 0:47:39- Thank you very much.- All right.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41- Speak to you in the morning. - See you.- Bye.

0:47:41 > 0:47:43Karen's signed Josh Hine,

0:47:43 > 0:47:45the top goal-scorer from the league above.

0:47:45 > 0:47:49She's hoping he'll sharpen Salford's attack.

0:47:55 > 0:47:58- Hiya.- Hiya, Karen, you all right? - Yeah, you?

0:47:58 > 0:48:00- Has it all gone through?- Yeah.

0:48:00 > 0:48:02Yeah, we eventually did the deal last night.

0:48:02 > 0:48:05They came back and asked for more money during their meeting.

0:48:05 > 0:48:08But we went back and said no, and about an hour later,

0:48:08 > 0:48:10they came back and accepted it,

0:48:10 > 0:48:13so we got him signed up at about one o'clock in the morning

0:48:13 > 0:48:14by the time we'd finished.

0:48:14 > 0:48:16- Was it late?- Yeah, it's fine, and it's gone to the FA.

0:48:16 > 0:48:18How old is Josh Hine?

0:48:18 > 0:48:20He's 24.

0:48:20 > 0:48:21Brilliant, okey-doke.

0:48:21 > 0:48:23- Cheers, Karen. - All right. Thanks, Paul.

0:48:23 > 0:48:25See you later. Bye.

0:48:30 > 0:48:32- Oh, thanks, love. - There you are, Mum.

0:48:32 > 0:48:34What brings you over here, anyway?

0:48:34 > 0:48:36I don't get chance to see you much, do I? So...

0:48:36 > 0:48:39- I know. Busy, busy.- Yeah.

0:48:39 > 0:48:42Fred was saying they've got a new striker signed.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45I know, yeah - young blood coming through, innit?

0:48:45 > 0:48:47And you're kind of pushing out the old guys, that's the...

0:48:47 > 0:48:50- Is that how you feel? - That's how I feel, yeah.

0:48:50 > 0:48:52It's kind of... That's football, innit?

0:48:52 > 0:48:55I did it - I did it 15 years ago to somebody else,

0:48:55 > 0:48:57so I've got expect someone to be doing that to me.

0:48:57 > 0:49:01But I'll score today and everything will be forgotten, it'll be fine.

0:49:01 > 0:49:03You've not had any modelling for a bit?

0:49:03 > 0:49:05Yeah, I've been doing all right, actually.

0:49:05 > 0:49:09- I did Attitude magazine.- Oh.

0:49:09 > 0:49:10A gay magazine.

0:49:10 > 0:49:13I suppose it doesn't really matter - work's work, isn't it?

0:49:13 > 0:49:16Yeah, well, the guys were really good, as well.

0:49:16 > 0:49:18They did some really good pictures.

0:49:18 > 0:49:20Are they gay that run it?

0:49:20 > 0:49:21I don't think so.

0:49:21 > 0:49:23I don't think so. I didn't ask.

0:49:23 > 0:49:25You can usually tell, can't you?

0:49:25 > 0:49:28Well, yeah, when we were kissing.

0:49:28 > 0:49:29When we were having a snog.

0:49:29 > 0:49:32What's your mother told you about kissing strange men?

0:49:38 > 0:49:40Late January.

0:49:40 > 0:49:44Today Salford play mid-table Buxton.

0:49:44 > 0:49:47Signed Josh Hine from Chorley.

0:49:47 > 0:49:49He's chomping at the bit to get started and get involved.

0:49:49 > 0:49:52In terms of the other forwards, if players are not performing,

0:49:52 > 0:49:55they're not scoring, which Sedds isn't at this time,

0:49:55 > 0:49:58they've got to fear for your place, that's the nature of the beast.

0:49:58 > 0:50:00You're paid to score goals, and if they're not doing it,

0:50:00 > 0:50:03then the players could be under question.

0:50:13 > 0:50:15A few changes to the team, boys.

0:50:17 > 0:50:19Jay in goal. Evvo right-back.

0:50:19 > 0:50:22Halley left-back. Lynchy and Halsy.

0:50:22 > 0:50:25Gaz, you're in the middle.

0:50:25 > 0:50:28JJ, Pooley, Jordan and Josh.

0:50:28 > 0:50:35That leaves Webbs, Sedds, Clarkey, Dorse and...Joey on the bench.

0:50:35 > 0:50:38OK? Get stripped.

0:50:38 > 0:50:39Josh, put nine on.

0:50:39 > 0:50:43Obviously we've left Gaz Seddon out today.

0:50:43 > 0:50:45Not for his performances, cos, you know,

0:50:45 > 0:50:47he's done all right the last four games,

0:50:47 > 0:50:49getting himself back to fitness, but obviously it's important

0:50:49 > 0:50:52that out of our five centre forwards, stroke six,

0:50:52 > 0:50:54we're scoring - unfortunately for Gareth,

0:50:54 > 0:50:56he's not scored for the last four games.

0:50:56 > 0:50:59It's only right he comes out today and gives somebody else a chance

0:50:59 > 0:51:00to obviously score goals.

0:51:00 > 0:51:03Josh Hine will be taking Seddon's place.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05Can't believe it - had my hair cut especially and I'm dropped.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10Happy new haircut, eh? Fuming.

0:51:11 > 0:51:12Get the ball.

0:51:12 > 0:51:14Scott! Gaz!

0:51:14 > 0:51:17Salford are in red.

0:51:19 > 0:51:22- Well done, Josh. - CROWD: Salford! Salford! Salford!

0:51:22 > 0:51:24Go on, Josh.

0:51:26 > 0:51:30Just before half-time, Josh Hine, in the number nine shirt,

0:51:30 > 0:51:32proves his worth.

0:51:32 > 0:51:33CHEERING

0:51:33 > 0:51:37Get in there, son. What a player.

0:51:39 > 0:51:42The goal helps Salford to three vital points.

0:51:42 > 0:51:44They're now second in the league.

0:51:49 > 0:51:51It's winding me up.

0:51:51 > 0:51:54I can't argue with the managers, it's their choice, their opinion,

0:51:54 > 0:51:56that's what they get paid for, so...

0:51:56 > 0:51:58But...it's just shit.

0:52:06 > 0:52:08Saturday, early February.

0:52:08 > 0:52:11It's ten weeks till Jemma and Bernard's big day.

0:52:13 > 0:52:14See you, Halley, be a good girl.

0:52:14 > 0:52:17And this morning, Bernard has got an appointment

0:52:17 > 0:52:18at the wedding outfitters.

0:52:18 > 0:52:21Quite a lot at stake today.

0:52:21 > 0:52:23Got to pick the right suit and got to get the right result.

0:52:23 > 0:52:27This afternoon, Salford face archrivals Darlington.

0:52:27 > 0:52:28That's my favourite.

0:52:28 > 0:52:31What am I, waist-wise? I've only got to be a 34, me.

0:52:31 > 0:52:33- I'll just have to do this. - HE GASPS

0:52:33 > 0:52:36I didn't think marriage, but settling down, yeah.

0:52:36 > 0:52:40- Do you remember your first date? - Date? I've never been on a date.

0:52:41 > 0:52:44Jemma's my first, that's the first girlfriend I've ever had.

0:52:44 > 0:52:46To be honest with you, it run smoothly.

0:52:46 > 0:52:49I just want her to have the same name as me.

0:52:49 > 0:52:53If she's a Morley, she'll be hated, as well.

0:52:53 > 0:52:54He's scrubbed up quite well.

0:52:54 > 0:52:59The only time Jonno usually wears suits is to go to court.

0:53:00 > 0:53:02You know, as much as she says she doesn't like football,

0:53:02 > 0:53:04she's absolutely loved it.

0:53:04 > 0:53:07I mean, on her wedding day, she's wearing a Salford City shirt,

0:53:07 > 0:53:09which I didn't know she would.

0:53:09 > 0:53:11She just...she makes an effort.

0:53:11 > 0:53:15It sort of, like, sums up what we are all about.

0:53:20 > 0:53:24Across town, Jemma's taken Louise, her chief bridesmaid,

0:53:24 > 0:53:27along to her final fitting.

0:53:27 > 0:53:31I've had it altered, so we'll see if it still fits me.

0:53:31 > 0:53:35But they're distracted by events at Moor Lane.

0:53:35 > 0:53:37Salford City are playing Darlington.

0:53:37 > 0:53:39As far as I know.

0:53:39 > 0:53:40It's a very tense game.

0:53:40 > 0:53:44- Oh! 1-0, Salford.- Yes!

0:53:45 > 0:53:49We need the points to potentially win the league,

0:53:49 > 0:53:51so it's very important.

0:53:51 > 0:53:53- 2-0!- Already? - Yeah.- When did they kick off?

0:53:53 > 0:53:55Three o'clock. Half an hour.

0:53:55 > 0:53:58Oh, he'll be buzzing. Bless him.

0:54:11 > 0:54:15I love it. I'm not bored of trying it on.

0:54:15 > 0:54:18You've done amazing, losing all your weight and everything. You look fab.

0:54:18 > 0:54:20Bernard's a lucky man, isn't he?

0:54:20 > 0:54:23Football's more important to him.

0:54:23 > 0:54:25Definitely more important.

0:54:25 > 0:54:27I would like to think I was number one,

0:54:27 > 0:54:28but I know I'm not.

0:54:32 > 0:54:34SHOUTING

0:54:40 > 0:54:43At Moor Lane, the mood is bitter.

0:54:47 > 0:54:50Police and stewards are having to keep rival fans apart.

0:54:52 > 0:54:54By half-time, Salford are 2-0 up.

0:54:55 > 0:54:57They've come here today with a game plan,

0:54:57 > 0:54:59they've changed what's got them to where they have,

0:54:59 > 0:55:01and you hit them head-on.

0:55:01 > 0:55:03Could have been four or five, if I'm honest, yeah?

0:55:03 > 0:55:04If I'm honest, it could have been.

0:55:04 > 0:55:06Pat yourselves on the back for that.

0:55:06 > 0:55:09Boys, for 40 minutes, it's the perfect half, isn't it?

0:55:09 > 0:55:11JEERING

0:55:13 > 0:55:16Over at the bar, Babs is coming out fighting, too,

0:55:16 > 0:55:19after another surprise visit from the food inspectors.

0:55:19 > 0:55:22They said one star to me in the papers.

0:55:22 > 0:55:27Tell the papers to look at that, all right?

0:55:27 > 0:55:31Tell them to shove that there, in the paper.

0:55:31 > 0:55:32- Five stars! Five stars! - Thank you.

0:55:32 > 0:55:35In just three months, Babs has gone from one star to five.

0:55:36 > 0:55:38At the start of the second half,

0:55:38 > 0:55:41Darlington, in white, go on the attack.

0:55:42 > 0:55:45CHEERING AND YELLING

0:55:45 > 0:55:50He's scoring a fucking goal! What are you fucking doing?

0:55:54 > 0:55:57Salford score a third, but within minutes,

0:55:57 > 0:56:00Darlington strike again for a second.

0:56:02 > 0:56:05WILD CHEERING

0:56:08 > 0:56:10Then another to equalise.

0:56:12 > 0:56:13They've just scored, right?

0:56:13 > 0:56:18So it's 3-3, Salford are going to get one more now before we finish,

0:56:18 > 0:56:19that's what I reckon.

0:56:25 > 0:56:29In the dying minutes of the game, a free kick brings the final twist.

0:56:31 > 0:56:33It's 4-3 to Darlington.

0:56:33 > 0:56:35FINAL WHISTLE BLOWS

0:56:37 > 0:56:41Darlington's victory takes them to second place in the table

0:56:41 > 0:56:44as Salford crash down to fourth.

0:56:47 > 0:56:49Winning the league now looks impossible.

0:56:53 > 0:56:57How can you go from being fucking so dominant in 45 minutes

0:56:57 > 0:56:58to fucking car crash?

0:57:00 > 0:57:04It is shit. Collectively, we was a shambles the second half.

0:57:04 > 0:57:06It's not fucking acceptable, boys.

0:57:06 > 0:57:08And I fucking hate getting like this,

0:57:08 > 0:57:10but I'm all heart.

0:57:10 > 0:57:12I fucking back every one of your corners.

0:57:12 > 0:57:15After the game, Jonno sent me a message.

0:57:17 > 0:57:19I think he even said,

0:57:19 > 0:57:23"If I was a board member, I would be thinking about sacking us today."

0:57:31 > 0:57:33Trouble, trouble...

0:57:33 > 0:57:35Salford City hit an all-time low.

0:57:35 > 0:57:37This is when you need to be strong managers,

0:57:37 > 0:57:39cos it's the first real bad spell you've had.

0:57:39 > 0:57:42As the team suffer another shock defeat...

0:57:42 > 0:57:44I can't remember the last time we played that badly.

0:57:44 > 0:57:46I'm fucking embarrassed.

0:57:46 > 0:57:48Take your fucking gear off, mate, you're coming off.

0:57:48 > 0:57:51..their chances of promotion look desperate.

0:57:51 > 0:57:53At this moment, will we go up?

0:57:53 > 0:57:55You'd have to say it's 70/30 against.

0:57:55 > 0:57:57One, two.

0:57:57 > 0:57:58If Jonno starts to be better than me,

0:57:58 > 0:58:00I'll throw the towel in.

0:58:00 > 0:58:02As life off the pitch piles on the pressure...

0:58:02 > 0:58:04- Can we talk about the wedding, please?- Sorry.

0:58:04 > 0:58:07..the managers reach breaking point.

0:58:07 > 0:58:09I put up with a lot of shit, not that.

0:58:09 > 0:58:11That is fucking under-5s shit.

0:58:11 > 0:58:13Can the class of '92 turn it around?

0:58:13 > 0:58:16In moments like this, you feel helpless.

0:58:16 > 0:58:18Or is the fairy tale over?

0:58:18 > 0:58:21If it goes tits up, we're going to be a laughing stock, aren't we?
