Altrincham FC First Team / Horrible Pitch ?
« on: March 11, 2009, 01:55:32 PM »
This from Torquay United as reported on the Alty web site.

United supporter Steve Breed travels to every United match and he gave his thoughts straight after the final whistle: 'It was a horrible pitch and it wasn't a great game but then Wayne goes and smashes one in at the death and that is all that we will remember'". His opinion about the pitch is not matched by Pitchcare magazine, the leading publication in the sports pitch field, which has a four-page feature this month on the superb job done by Alty groundsman Neil Brown at Moss Lane.

I rate our pitch better than many premier league playing surfaces so which ground this bloke ended up at, god only knows.

Altrincham FC First Team / Cash strapped Setanta
« on: March 04, 2009, 05:39:52 PM »
Very sobering article in the Daily Telegraph sports section about the plight of Setanta ( Follow link below)

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/premierleague/4934482/Cash-strapped-Setanta-ready-to-hand-back-TV-contracts.html

It basically goes along the lines that they are fast running out of money and if they can't re-negotiate the current contracts then they will probably go the way of ITV digital.

I know we don't get many televised games but getting non league football on the box goes down very well in this house.

Altrincham FC First Team / Free Season Tickets for Children ?
« on: January 14, 2009, 10:29:42 AM »
This morning (Wednesday) there has been a debate on radio 5 live about clubs offering free season tickets to children. Many clubs have found that as a result fee paying parents come along with them  who in turn utilise the clubs bars, buy programmes,use on site catering etc. I know that the coupons from the leisure centre have been withdrawn but  I feel that this new idea being adopted by many clubs could be one worth considering by Alty.

Altrincham FC First Team / Possibly the best away game of the season ?
« on: December 28, 2008, 06:51:48 PM »
OK so I have not been to every away game but that was something else. Boring first half suddenly came to light with 2 great Alty goals in the second half. Hysteria in the Alty end. Only negative parts were Danalyk being stretchered off and their physio refusing to come on to help. Dale Johnsons goal was a peach. So to those of you who couldn't be arsed to get off your backsides (James Black etc) shame on you. To the 118 Alty souls who witnessed a great away win I salute you!

Can someone please help ? The Luton programme confidently points out that this is a picture of our esteemed manager. I am not so sure. Anyone any ideas?

Altrincham FC First Team / Don't Lose Heart
« on: April 23, 2008, 10:34:55 AM »
I am taking my 2 kids, my brother and his daughter to the Weymouth game. I wouldn't bother travelling all that way unless I thought we had a dam good chance of staying up. The whole weekend will probably cost me £250 and I know the players will give it 100% for all of us. If you are thinking 'Is it worth it', remember this. If we pull it off and you weren't there you will regret it for ever. Think of the dancing in the streets around Weymouth and you can be part of it. I will have my customary blue away shirt on and my lad will have his home shirt on with 'Scotson 11' on the back. We will be there - WILL YOU ?

Altrincham FC First Team / Ashley Timms Arrested
« on: April 08, 2008, 01:35:48 PM »
Anyone remember Ashley Timms? he has been arrested for blackmailing 'an un identified footballer' to the tune of £15000 according to the BBC. Last seen playing for the mighty Cambridge City. Perhaps he may fancy blackmailing a few of the Burton players prior to tonights game !

Altrincham FC First Team / Photo From The 70's - can Anyone Help ?
« on: October 16, 2007, 09:56:16 AM »


The attached Photo shows myself amoungst a rum group of Alty supporters in the mid to late 70's. I am holding up the striped scarf below the Union Jack. Are any of you on this photo and if so where was it taken ? I have a feeling it was published in the old Altrincham Guardian. Can anyone help ?
