2-2 Reeves 11, Walshaw 68

Att 733

Still angered by that piece.


Open Letter,

Do you often allow articles to be edited and changed after publication that have featured the reporting of a criminal offence? The offence in question is that of violence and threats from alleged Altrincham FC fans "on the morning" of the game Saturday just gone towards that of Frank Sinclair, manager of Colwyn Bay FC. Perhaps Mr Tim Channon, who wrote and no doubt then edited his report, could forward the information he has of these threats to the police or are we of the opinion that as the article has been edited, these alleged threats actually didn't take place nor is there any information or evidence.

The reporting and distribution of such an article leading to lighting up a football club and it's supporters in a bad light is at best disgusting.

Intersting going back through the years. Wonder what the "charge lodged" was in May 1999

Firstly I don't condone any type of violence of any sort but hope the lad, think he was called 'Gary' is ok. This is the second time in 20 months I've witnessed violence at Moss Lane, the other being Wrexham on NYD, disregarding FC Utd. I have followed Alty since 1995 and to my recollection don't remember feeling so uncomfortable as I did today.

Not only do we seem to be not performing on the pitch, the club seem to be getting it wrong off the pitch. Now before anyone jumps down my throat, I'm not criticising the chairman or stewards etc but if everyone I spoke to could see what was coming why can't the club?

After the Wrexham game I would have thought lessons could have been learnt. A large away following was obviously expected and Chester's own stewards attended the game. Now I would have thought as a suggestion they could have been placed on the home turnstiles primarily as a deterrent if not to recognise some fans. Secondly after the lads concerned had previously been warned about consuming alcohol in the ground why were they left alone? There are by laws to obide by and the ground is private property so suggest they go in their end or police called and removed?

I seriously worry there will be a more serious, if that word could be used, incident to the one I witnessed today. At 31 I have never seen a grown man stamp on another human beings head with such force.

Horrible

As well as still being quite emotional I think I'll still feel the need to write to Grahame Rowley about such practises.

I hope lessons can be learnt

Just a short story that I hope will raise a smile...

A few people went to the Fleetwood game at the weekend, and one I work with, who saw and then relayed this story. I had mentioned Brodie to him last week and that it appeared he now had his cards marked by referees. He was banned for the FA cup game.

During the game Brodie appeared in the concreted concourse area in front of the main stand, mouth full of burger and bun, a spectator got up tapped him shoulder, to which Brodie looked like he was going to sign a shirt, when said Fleetwood supporter said "oi move your in the way of my f**king son and he can't see the game !"

The look on his chops, by all accounts, sounded quite funny....

Ok, so at the other end of the stick from hardest player, suggestions to who would run a mile at the slightest possible kerfuffle.

Lee Elam :-D

I think you've a message if its sent properly.

Also, the link to order merchandise appears broke via the club website. Can sizes be added/displayed too.

Cheers
