🌠 That one's for you, Ethan Macclesfield's magical - and warranted - #FACup win over Crystal Palace dominates the @NonLeaguePaper front page Ethan McLeod's memory was just as prominent at Moss Rose yesterday and had to be at the heart of our spread on Macc's greatest triumph

HT: Walsall 0-1 Salford City Visitors looked irresistible early on, #Saddlers then settled and it was a really punchy, proper game for 20 minutes Teams then cancelled each other out before Salford built nicely, Luke Molyneux knocking in for Macauley Langstaff to fire in on 45

Interesting - and valid - take from someone who has been there and done it I think the manager is a smidge curt, but nothing drastic I've had a lot worse in football and a lot worse in speedway 😂
Gareth Davies@gareth_davies82Oct 26
Seen a lot of negativity regarding this - mainly from those that have never been in either the interviewer or the manager’s position. But for me, it’s brilliant from both sides. Manager answers honestly and the interviewer remains composed and gets back on track quickly.

⚽️ Boos on 65 minutes, clapped off at the end Carlisle United's second-half dominance was enough for a 2-1 comeback victory at Solihull Moors Not pretty but a deserved win for #CUFC who are unbeaten in October See this wk's @NonLeaguePaper for all the action, reaction & stats

HT: Solihull Moors 1-0 Carlisle United Ben Wodskou's instinctive hit of a clearance to the left of the box hands Moors the lead three minutes into first-half stoppage time Squelchy pitch stifling build-ups, particularly Carlisle's, but pretty even. Visitors had best 2 openings

The word ruthless gets used a lot when teams score a few but this truly was Four superb goals, Church's only four clear chances. Hosts still very much the better side, although 4-0 probably harsh on Spalding George Forsyth stood out. Knitted together a very neat performance.

Could not be said that @TownShifnal were bad, kept going even after game was dead but it didn't quite click @WittonAlbion found their groove and were incisive 2nd half. Striker Freddy Garbett, wide man Tom Hoyle and centre-half Geoffrey Ebhote showed flashes of class throughout
Andy Mitchell@sirandymitchellOct 14
FT: @TownShifnal 0-4 @WittonAlbion Witton turn on the style to dominate the second half Freddy Garbett body checked in box and strokes in penalty on 51 and then rifled low inside far post on 58 from a Joe Edwards cut back Garbett lifted sub Deji Sotona in to lob in on 90 (1/2)
