Salford City vote for 'landmark' u-turn - which may upset Gary Neville
"After a huge cosultation process took place, Salford's fans have been allowed to vote on a decision that is set to alter their brand as a whole. Staggeringly, after a vote this week, a firm majority of 77.1 per cent of fans have opted to agree to the landmark alteration, with the changes set to come into effect from the 2026/26 season."
"Confirmed by the club, Salford will be switching their club colours from red to orange after supporters opted for the change in a recent ballot process. Significant work is expected to be undertaken at the Peninsula Stadium to update cladding and seats, amongst other infrastructure upgrades that are already due to take place ahead of the start of next season."
"A striking new identity, co-owner Neville has in the past stated that there is only one red team in and around Manchester, with the Ammies again looking to branch out and find new ways to bring attention and investment to the club so will he be offended that his club are moving away from the shade that he wore as a one-club player at Old Trafford?"
Salford City, owned by Gary Neville and David Beckham, currently play in League Two and sit ninth in the table. A fan ballot recorded a 77.1% majority in favour of changing the club colours from red to orange, with the change scheduled to take effect from the 2026/26 season. The club confirmed that significant work will be carried out at the Peninsula Stadium, including updating cladding and seats, alongside other infrastructure upgrades due before next season. The rebranding to orange aims to create a striking new identity and attract attention and investment, reflecting a historic association with orange over a 40-year period.
