Why weren't they in the family stand?

More to the point do we have any official line on why exactly we arranged a friendly with a youth team in January?

[Hale Alty]

More to the point why weren't they forcibly ejected by the stewards?

Because we're too fkn nice.

[ToffeeBlue]

There are always people walking behind the directors' box.  It's the way through from the Family Stand to the toilets & food outlets in the CSH when they won't let you through the gate into the 'away' end. For big games........      !!

First time I have watched Alty since November.

A Dank wet night, we decided to sit in the main stand just behind the directors box (bad mistake). For the entire game there were kids (mainly girls) and adults (both female and male) who seemed to want to piss about all night walking up and down and to and fro from there seats. ... 
If you want to take your offspring to watch football, then tell them to watch the game and not piss about all night running around. The main stand is not a crèche for ferel kids to inhabit for 90 mins...  Also lots of posing people with there Utd coats on wandering about, and women more interested in playing with there mobiles (Stay at home in the warm if that's your main hobby ffs)...

Conclusion ....  Never sit in the main stand ever again.

As for the football, good to see some Alty trialists have a run out. One of the main problems (in my eyes) is that the so called established players on show (Mault Lawrie etc) do not seem to be as committed as they once were a year or so ago...  Good to see the Utd youngsters it will be interesting to see how many make the grade to kick on ... The No 7 and 10 were good in midfield whilst the no 5 at the back was good along with a big strapping lad at No 8.
 
Nice to see Colin Little again at Alty, Also good to hear Buzz and Robbie giving there instructions, particulary in the first half.

As ever the fish and chips were good from across the road.

   distance traveler as one of the stewards that were on last night. I asked the young lady who was incharged of the girls to ask them to sit down in the stand for health and safety reasons unfortunately she said they are only eight years old what harm are they doing . So I reported it to the safety officer. You can always email the club to tell them of what happened last night.

I'd also like to hear why the same group were allowed to run riot on the pitch at half time. Friendly or not, you wouldn't see that in a Sunday League game.

Fabio the stewards were told the girls had permission to go on the pitch at half by the management given the state of the weather and pitch we also were surprised by this decision

The group of girls in question had been guests in the sponsors lounge which there parents had paid for as part of Altrincham junior girls
to try and encourage them to come to more games.
Only once as a group (i may be wrong) did they go to try and get autographs and also why they were allowed on the pitch at half time.
I was also in he sponsors lounge last night as part of the group, I had a go at United fans just walking in and trying to pinch team sheets
off peoples tables that also still had there belongings on.

Anyway,enough about knife wielding children rampaging through the main stand 
Can anyone that went give an opinion on any of the trialists?

as far as I am aware united asked alty for the friendly

[Darren]

The reason for the friendly was explained to me but i can't remember the exact wording but it did make sense 

[distancetraveller]

At the end of the day, it was a football match we were at. No problem with people moving about prior to/at half time/at the final whistle.
Other than that whether or not your an ankle biter or a grown up, just sit down and watch the bloody game

I was under the impression they had a game rearranged and subsequently a gap in their fixture list.

The thoughts of Matthew (sic) Doughty follow.

The interviewer is truly "brilliant":

Whoopee, all the way in the CSC.......be still my beating heart.

Potentially where we are going??? Potentially?? I suppose he has to say that. As regards the only difference between Flyde and us being a top striker, I wasn't there so can not really comment, but I find that rather hard to believe.

[distancetraveller]

The trialist Diego Sedoc looked lively when he came on and scored a decent goal. Quite pacey.

[Cheadle Hulme Alty]

Where the hell do you find trialists at this stage of the season?!!

[Sale Holmfield]

It looks like he (Sedoc) is 22, and was playing for Koninklijke Haarlemsche FC in the Dutch Topklasse Sunday (level 3) last season, but he only made a couple of appearances, and was usually on the bench. I can't track him down anywhere this season. There are also a couple of clips of him on YouTube showing his pace.
