Graham Golden As Salford Soar In September

There was one word being used more and more as last month rumbled on. Ominous.

Otherwise known as menacing, threatening or even dangerous. It summed up the situation quite well.

Salford City didn't make the start they would have liked after a somewhat rambunctious summer which they recruited strongly.

One of their close season captures was a new manager. Graham Alexander knew the scrutiny would be intense and a slow start had them playing catch up.

But September saw them lay down a marker. Following an early draw, wins over AFC Fylde, Maidstone United, Bromley, Boreham Wood, Hartlepool United and Maidenhead United made it six wins from six.

Alexander is starting to really show why the club made such a big decision back in May.
