I'll take anything as long as we're not playing Good Friday at 3pm, especially now I've bought a season ticket - 1 more match I've already paid for that I wouldn't be able to attend

 Why's that? Sounds a bit fishy to me.

 The already undermined Good Friday Agreement is being ripped up as we speak. Great shame, but not going Alty v Yeovil would be a weird kind of protest.

 Do you have a cross to bear?

I really hope Curzon do well (win it/ play-offs), a lovely club. And the best non-league 'out of town' newbuild ground. (Stadium).

Anyway... players come and go and that's part and parcel. Plaudits, if due, then pastures new, as they say. But I'd love to see Max Harrop become the player he knows he should be, even if it's elsewhere. Absolutely top bloke, his celebrations at Boston showed his devotion to the cause.

Unfortunately, ultimately, it wasn't to be for Max and Alty. And, obviously, the right decision to end the relationship. I'm sure he wouldn't disagree that he was given a fair chance to stake his claim and never quite grasped it.

Think he'd do well as the pivot in a more 'blood n' thunder ' team. (Some sort of  'Games Workshop' thing).

Thanks Max, sincere best wishes...

Massive apologies, John. My bad, and considering my intention to praise the the interviewer, a pretty stupid one.

Mea culpa, you erudite f**ker.

Brilliant, Brian. Footballer interviews are usually completely banal. This was something else. Sincere thanks.

Matty, welcome aboard, you erudite f**ker!

Logically, sightlinewise, sitting down should be in front of standing up. But never is.
Just a different perspective...

We've been operating at less than 20% capacity for a heck of a while. Even before the increased rating it has been rare for our average gate to be more than that (I. E. Over 1200 odd). The new rating means that now rises to over 1500? So no away fans perhaps and we'd be fine.

Good point. Admit I hadn't thought of it that way So, if 20% means anyone who wants to go the match can do so then great, let's go...

re away fans.  We are in the Greater Manchester special measures zone so no bugger from elsewhere can come anyway. Only County would be able to bring fans.

(I'm aware of the contradiction between the above two statements. One is daft).

New defenders? Toby Mullarkey will be a  bona-fide Alty legend in ten years time. Solid defending, of course, plus casually meandering the ball from defence to attack (via, perhaps, a mad foray down the right wing). I don't know how young he is, but he's not old. When he adds booting it in the net to his repertoire (which, y'can tell, he'd love to) he'll be The Man, For all seasons, hopefully...

I like to think he was named after the coolest of Alty  defenders : Graham Tobin. [I know there's been many cooler Alty defenders, eg Davison/ Owens/ Crossley etc. but I can't think of any that would inspire a parents to name their child Toby].

I know a bloke called Stan Alan Mullarkey. He's a bit of a dick.

 Thanks, and hats off to Alty TV.

 The last couple of scenes (dressing room/ outside Moss Lane) are beautiful. Great to see the players are fans.
 
 I don't  know if that's Connor Hampson cavorting about having got off the team bus, or a Connor Hampson lookalike. I love the idea that a fan would put on a hairband and that black bra contraption as a tribute to a left-back. Equally, I love the idea of players singing and dancing with fans.

  Viva Alty, and Alty TV.
