HOST CLUB IDENTITY

The Ammies

For Salford City supporters, the Ammies tradition brings together a club founded in 1940, home matchdays at Peninsula Stadium, and the familiar sight of West Stand and East Stand. Milestones such as EFL Trophy winners (2020) and National League play-off winners (2019) give the present-day club a strong and recognisable sense of history.
