WE last saw the five legendary owners of Salford City FC - Giggs, Scholes, Butt, Neville and Neville – in jubilation having lifted the trophy as champions of the Evo-Stick First Division North league on the final day of the football season.
...things have certainly changed at this club
Though some questions were left hanging; with two of their owners now based in Spain and the players becoming local celebrities, would performances on the pitch be affected?
Now the BBC One documentary, Class of 92: Out of their League, following the fortunes of non-league football club Salford City FC and their five famous owners, is set to return to our screens for a second series.
The new two-part series will air on BBC One later this year and will again be made by Electric Ray for the BBC, and bosses promise that new season will show how much the club has changed.
"The original series took us to the heart of a community where much was at stake as the new owners took over," said Patrick Holland, Head of BBC Documentaries. "Not only was it hugely entertaining, it also explored the often difficult relationship between tradition and progress that resonated with the wider audience. We are very excited to return to Salford for another season of highs and lows.”
Meredith Chambers, Managing Director of Electric Ray added: “I’m delighted to once again bring the story of Salford City to the BBC.
"Our cameras have been rolling since the start of the current season and there’s certainly more drama, on and off the pitch to come. Since the first season the characters of Moor Lane have been thrust into the limelight and things have certainly changed at this club. The access we have once again been given is exceptional and the next chapter is set to be just as thrilling as the first. ”
Class of 92: Of Their League will be shown on BBC One will be shown later this year.
