Salford City have signed Aberdeen’s main striker for an undisclosed fee and are paying him £4,000 a week! Stupid money for non league football!

No wonder they're red hot favourites to win the league.

Be interesting to see what happens if they don't go up.

This was always going to happen with the people who now own the club.
Very good players in there day undisputed, however, are they good for the non league football scene? I don't think so..
The club will be on TV most weeks so that will help with the wage bill.
Am I jealous? Not one bit. I just worry for other clubs who try to compete with them.

I will be glad when they have pissed off from the non league setup.

The amount of money they're throwing around, they obviously intend this to be their last non league season.

I'd love it if they finished second, then lost the play off final on penalties.

From what I understand they're convinced by Jack's fitness record - you could well be right.
