young supporters in the carole nash and family stand need to get out of them and in to the golf rd end cheering the lads on. all i here from the main stand is booing when the ref and his assistants walk back in not thinking that maybe it's the players and management that have lost us the game. negativity will get us no where cheering the lads home like me and many others did last night will keep us up well done the boys lets have this.Farsley don't have the players or experiance of a relegation dog fight and thats where we'll stay up.What a load of bxllxcks they moan in the stand they moan on the terrances but to say they don't get behind the team as much is crap have you not heard some of the kids teams that have been to moss lane this season, Its usually there first visit but you can hear them cheering on the team.
Darren i wasn't blaming the kids there support towards the lads I think u'll find most of the people that i'm with blame the team as wel as the ref. all the main stand seem to do is cheer a goal and blame the refs performance it's like OT that main stand.as for the Golf rd we sing all game.
cheers ian trust me the feeling mutual

You see Phil all alty fans can unite behind one cause!! :D :-* :Pall i here from the main stand is booing when the ref and his assistants walk back in not thinking that maybe it's the players and management that have lost us the game.
We are not booing the referee and his assistants.
We are actually booing Phil Taylor as he escorts the officials off the pitch......
As with all Football teams, no matter what stand you go on there is always a mix of loud and quite fans. You will never get all fans to sing. The ones who do want to sing will know where to go. We took 51 to Stevenage on a Monday night and out sung some 1700 home fans. Out of the 51 there, only 30 ish hard core who sung, that's not a problem.
The golf road end has a few non singers, it's their perogative. I am proud that when we go away we mostly get a good response from the home fans either in person on the way home or on their forums.
On another Fan interaction thingy, who would like to chip in a buy a large Flag to give Alty some presence? I'd throw in a tenner? Anyone else............

Utterly brilliant
For the greater part of the time since I took on my alternative responsibilities the job of collecting the match officials has been done by Mrs Allison Lewis whom I feel sure is really flattered that people think that she is me.

I'm sorry (and a bit concerned) I have to agree with part of this:
all i here from the main stand is booing when the ref and his assistants walk back in not thinking that maybe it's the players and management that have lost us the game.
The other thing I don't really understand and maybe someone can explain it to me is;
When the fourth Official puts up the board indicating how long THE REFEREE has told him to put up everyone starts giving him a hard time and asking where he's got, for example 5 minutes, from. He hasn't just invented it, all he's doing is advising those in attendance approximately how long will be played to make up for time lost for a variety of reasons
this could be in reference to myself, i was under the impression that the fouth official calculated the time added on and then displayed the board for the benefit of everyone in the ground including the referee, hence why it is also announced.... just what i was under the impression of, and yes i was gobsmacked when the 5 was on the board as im sure 90% in attendance were, i couldn't see where he OR the referee if true had got that time from and yes i directed a couple of 'where the f**k have you got that time from' comments....

Thank You, (former) ATS.
I wonder how many people actually think I am you?
Does this mean that there will be a change in the response of people when the officials are escorted off by myself, probably not!
Stockportalty,
I apologise profusely for this identity confusion.
Following Phil Taylor's revelation, I attended an appointment at the opticians this morning and have now invested in a pair of state-of-the-art spectacles.
Alas, this purchase has backfired somewhat, as, equipped with my new 20/20 vision, when I got home I was alarmed to discover that the person who I had believed to be my wife was actually Dennis Birch.
As for booing Phil Taylor (which remains one of the great treasures of attending Moss Lane), I will ensure that for all forthcoming home fixtures, I am positioned outside the main entrance at noon in order to jeer at him as he arrives at the ground.
and as for the flag i honestly think that large flags in our league just don't look good (unless it's york in which case it's impressive) i have a flag and im seriously worried that if we go down it will look out of place in the BSN and it's only a 12 footer, however a few of us are saving for two more flags of similar size (to be bought when we stay up :D)
If someone can tell me where to buy some thermal socks and underwear I will happily stand in the Golf Road end.Until then I will keep my feet and other bits warm in the Carol Nash stand.

Hmmm, this conjures up some very bizarre imagery. Unless you use your member as a drill stick and your seating as the combustible (swivelling violently on the spot) thus creating a small blaze in your pants at which point you adopt a yogic foot warming position, I fail to see how sitting in the main stand keeps you and your bits warm.

Surely the amount of hot air emanating from the Home bench and from Mr Heathcote's "friends" in the stand is sufficient to warm a medium sized aircraft hangar?
Personally, I find that I get colder sitting down compared to standing when I can at least move around a little. I hate sitting down at football.
6 substitutions @ 30 seconds each, a couple of lengthy bookings and treatment to Tom Cahill.Easily five mins. It wasn't that he added too much but that most refs don't add enough.

I find that sitting on George Heslop's lap does ward off the chill somewhat....

A comment I seem to recall having made when attempting to explain the 6 minutes stoppage time at the Weymouth match. I recall that it was not very well received at the time by certain of my AFC supporting colleagues

Again...it's all about consistency.The referee also played six minutes over in our FA Trophy match against Aylesbury about 5 years ago, when there were numerous stoppages (including one for the injury that ended Danny Murphy's Alty career) as well as the usual substitutions.The referee should have allocated about 14 minutes injury time.......6 was literally unbelievable & one of the worst pieces of officiating I have ever seen.....unforgiveable!
