Good luck to the lads today...we have nothing to lose.
There should be radio coverage here (although this is from the BBC so may be nonsense)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_radio_surrey
Looking at the fixtures most of the bottom six have tough games today.
-
Indeed, good luck to the lads today. Can't go today unfortunately, but I really hope we can get something.
Still a long way to go this season and I feel confident Kenny can lead us to safety!
Come on Alty!!!!
-
After listening to what Kenny had to say on Wednesday, and looking at our home fixtures for the rest of the season, I too am starting to believe we can survive. A point today would do me nicely. It's a big ask, and our record against Crawley isn't good (even when they weren't mega rich), but..............................
COME ON YOU MIGHTY ROBINS ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !! !
-
I've a feeling in my water about today.
I think it's their first home game in a few weeks and they will be really feeling the pressure facing a team they should beat easily (as far as their fans are concerned).
If we give it a go early and get ahead I think they will really struggle, they didn't exactly murder us at Moss Lane and we have a better team now than we had then. Step forward Messrs Baynes, Reeves and Denham, I reckon this could be your day!!!
-
Can see us nicking a 2-2 draw
-
It'll depend on how long we can keep them our for at the start.
I think we have a goal from a free kick in us....we're due one.

Robbie Williams header from a Baynes delivery would do nicely.

Tubbs starts ::)
-
No surpsrise that Tubbs starts for them..
-
Blast a Pen,
no appeal by crawley sounds ver dodgy
-
Penalty to them after 1 minute
-
you have got to be joking :-[
-
FFS What a start. >:( >:( >:( >:(
-
:-\
-
Go on Dad!
-
Oh...
-
Get Reeves on
-
As Flynny has just told the referee..the decision sounded harsh.
Shot blasted at Joseph...nothing he could so says there commentator
-
SANDWICHE TIME AND 1-2 TO US
FROM jL
2. Ref gives ridiculuous penalty for hadball and Tubbs nets from spot after deflected shot hit an Alty player. 1-0
-
Err, hi everyone. Couldn't go today.
Check what's in those sandwiches Harold will you?
-
It'll depend on how long we can keep them our for at the start.
Ecky,
I presume that you were thinking that we could keep them at bay for more than two minutes...?!
-
Its ok SW she went and bought some ham
-
If bbc county commentators say it was harsh it must have been very dubious
-
Oh for crying out loud when will get a break from these dodgy looking decisions
-
Buggery
-
oh no, it's going to be a long game :-[
-
oh feck
-
ffs lets do a Spurs
-
2-0 down.
I think I might just switch off the commentary now and go and creosote a fence.....
-
GAME OVER >:( >:(
-
Just shows how a bad ref can effect the game
-
This is going to be a very long afternoon....... :(
-
Right well we've lost this one but ritualisticly who thought we'd actually win?
We've got a lot of tough games out of the way now, season starts next week
-
Today is now about not losing by a silly score and other teams scores.
Histon 1 down at Luton
-
Bath 1 up!
-
Eastbourne one down - they will be down there.
-
South Notts signing, afternoon all... sounds like we've had a horrible and unlucky start.
Were not Spurs 0-2 down earlier today?
C'mon Alty
-
think i will go and watch paint dry :'(
-
Is Clee not fit? Has looked our biggest threat
-
Err, hi everyone. Couldn't go today.
Check what's in those sandwiches Harold will you?
Steve,
You working? I know this is one you usually get to. Although I'm guessing you are happy you are not there today :(
-
On call, covering a mate who covered me when I went to Histon. Balances.
-
Hayes 2-1 up at Mansfield.
Bring back Holdsworth....
However, FGR 1-0 down at Gateshead.
-
Its going to one of those days isn't it.
We'll lose 5-0, everyone bar Histon will win and at someone will say we shouldnt use being part time as an excuse or something equally annoying.
-
SHAMBLES >:( >:( >:(
-
And we'll get a red card as well...
-

Ecky,
From what I've heard of the match commentary so far, I think I'd take 5-0 now if it was offered to me.
-
Pick a number between 4 and 10
-
What can I even say...
I'm going now as this is just painful.
As I said before, season starts next week, let's get on a bit of a run hopefully with a new striker!
KEEP THE FAITH
-
7
-
what is going on!!
-
And we'll get a red card as well...
John Laidlar has us with four booked already: Lawton; Densmore; Somner and Brown.
And now it's 4-0....
-
Bugger and arse
-
Its men against boys...sadly it was just as we expected.
With the referee on side as well..we simply had no chance.
-
It's called FOOTBALL, not HANDBALL FFS :( :( :(
-
Sounds like if the ball hits you its handball.
-
again from JL
38 now 4-0 as ref gives another pen for a shot driven against an Alty arm - Tubbs converts penalty. Somner the Laty player involved but not booked a second time despite penalty award for alleged deliberate handball
-
It's called FOOTBALL, not HANDBALL FFF. :( :( :(
I'll take the opinion of someone who has actually gone that they were both very dubious.
-
This ref needs to go back to ref school
-

Fair enough. But what about the other2?

BBC are at it again

Blue Square Premier
Crawley Town
Neilson 8
Tubbs 35
4-0
Altrincham
-
As horrifying as this is to listen to, we're not going to be able to realistically compete with a team who's 4 strikers are Tubbs, Cook, Brodie and McAllister. I'm not 100% convinced the money they've got is completely legitimate but even if it is, the team they've assembled is too good for this league and it's pretty scandalous if they spend the amount of money they have and don't go up automatically.
Our fate isn't going to be decided by games against Crawley, Luton and Wimbledon, let's fire ourselves up for a very important few weeks after this. And let's hope everything goes against Bath and Hayes second half!
-
Commentator's synopsis:
"Altrincham, in truth, have been actually wretched at the back."
We'd never have guessed.....
-
HT 4-0 Crawley have dominated game and deserve to lead but two penalty decisin very questionable- both balls driven against players. Same ref also contentious when we played Torquay a couple of seasons ago
i remember this ref now,blokes an idiot
-
When did we last score 5 away from home in the second half?
-
I'd love to know how much pressure these relatively inexperienced refs get at places like Crawley from the likes of the charming Mr Evans and cohorts.
-
It seems to be crawley's battering ram approach has worked. Quite how drilling a ball against a person's arm from a few yards away is handball, only Phil knows.
Going 1 down so soon will no doubt of hit the lad's low confidence.
Still. its only half way. Maybe we can kidnap the ref, or put something in his half time drink?

Spot on. In a week where we learnt that Northern Premier players get more than we can offer suggests to me that we should take this on the chin and move on. The fact we've been on the wrong end of some dodgy decisions should fire us up with a bit of righteous indignation for the next few weeks.
-

Probably beaten to it.

46 Clee and Reeves on for Twiss and Baynes

Spot on....its men against boys.
We all know it....it was always going to be.
After three years of building a team got to a level where we could hold these superstar teams for a while. The spine of this team went and needs building again.
We simply can't compete with the big boys at the moment.
And as for Crawley, its like the harlem globetrotters.
-
BLOODY HELL A PEN TO US
-
bullocks missed
-
Dear Lord, we can't even take advantage of a gift penalty.....

What makes you say that?
-
I was just thinking that things couldn't get any worse!
-
Doesn't that just say it all.
-
and now i have lost matche commentary
-
Who missed it?
-
Densmore then clee shot over
-
Southport one down
-
rofl I get commentary back to hear them say Crawley need to up their game
-
Reeves misses sitter from 8 yards out...its only a red card and bad injury we need now to cap it all off.
-
Very soft penalty apparently, Lawton was even telling the ref that he'd made a mistake. :o

To be honest I'd question any team who randomly acquires £2 million when Steve Evans is the manager.
-
Rooneys on
for united
-
And they bring on Brodie, one of last seasons leading scorers in the league.
Imagine being able to to that...
-
Nearest game for me apart from Wimbledon. Looks like not being able to attend being a blessing.
-
The Luton commentators said last week Crawley were interested in signing Dury,but they thought Evens had,had enoungh of Dury's(juries)
-
Nothing makes me happier than hearing my Dad have a go at Steve Evans
-
Did he just shout "Sit down you muppet"!
-
Broadie in diving incident shocker
-
yep
-
And they bring on Brodie, one of last seasons leading scorers in the league.
Imagine being able to to that...
Yes, exactly, only possible for a club living beyond its means and outside the rules of the league wage ratio rules.
-
Did he just shout "Sit down you muppet"!
YES :D
-
Fekking Barrow are winning!!!
-
Barrow will be fine now, I dont think they will be in the mix.
I think Tamworth winning 3-0 is worse..
-
Could this ref get any worse?
-
Could this ref get any worse?
Don't temp fate, I'll settle for finishing with 11 men
-
I think Tamworth and Barrow are both gonna struggle these results are really worrying.
-
Hewson for Lawton
-
I think Tamworth and Barrow are both gonna struggle these results are really worrying.
Though Tamworth absolutely destroying Cambridge must give us hope, surely?
-
Fleetwood level at Bath...Eastbourne 2 down
-
Southport 2 down
-
I think Tamworth and Barrow are both gonna struggle these results are really worrying.
Though Tamworth absolutely destroying Cambridge must give us hope, surely?
Only if Cambridge have a midweek game...we are always the ideal team to play if you need to get a result.
As Ballers says, the non league Calpol.
Barrow now 1-1
FGR now 1-1
-

Logically yes, but I always fear playing a team who are clearly going to get a bollocking from their manager, especially when they're gonna work on their mistakes all week.
-
FC Utd are losing 2-0 at 'home' to Hinckley in the Trophy.

We do always seem to perform well against teams on good runs (eg, ending Barrow's 7 match unbeaten run and Fleetwood's 10 match unbeaten run). We struggle against teams who've just been battered.
-
69 For second time Brodie writhes on deck but no foul given and no card for simulation
-

Except today, where we've been mullered :(

True, but like I said before, I think Crawley are in a league of their own.
-
WISH THEY WERE
-
I know they will have taken their foot off a bit but it sounds like we have been much better in the second half.
This could be important for our confidence...
-
Cambridge 3-3 now
-
Get in Cambridge 3 - 3
-
Haha, great commentary, "Brighton have re-gained the lead against Bristol Rovers, actually they never had the lead, but it's 2-1 there"
-
77 Denham treated at length - all three subs used
-
Cambridge 3-3 now
Errrr, sh*t!!!
-
Alty down to 10 men as Denham arm injury treated off pitch
-
Did the team stay overnight in the South?
-
Did the team stay overnight in the South?
Yes
-
80 Denham back on but in apparent discomfort
-
Hayes now behind to Stags
-
5-0
-
Need to see it out now..
-
Goal difference now -25.
-
43 fans from Alty in the away end
-
well done to 43!
-
This is very reminisant of our first season back in this league
-
SW are you sure it was ham and Pickle?
6-0 that bum Brodie
-
Goal difference now -25.
Er, make that -26....
-
This is very reminisant of our first season back in this league
Very true...
Its now all about how well we put this to bed and get over it.
-
bollocks 7-0
-
I think its fair to say we have been well beaten
-
Goal difference now -25.
Er, make that -26....
Now -27...and counting.
Embarrassing.
-
i will say were were beaten
-
ft according to JL
-
a couple of defenders please oh and throw a striker in -if only
-
I know they will have taken their foot off a bit but it sounds like we have been much better in the second half.
This could be important for our confidence...
Ecky,
Why did you have to go and tempt fate...?!
-
If that ref hadn't given the pen in the 2 min we'd have had them!
FACT
-
ref spoiled a close game for me :)
-
Furious with the referee, the loss I'm sure would have come anyway but not to that extent.
-
oh...
Well 5pts from safety and whether 1-0 or 7-0 its still a match expected to lose.
Regroup and retry for the next match.
How the Carole Nash Money would have been better used... Got to work with what we have though cos the dream was taken away of spending that money on the current team
Feel gutted for the fans that went, and WELL DONE for going and supporting the club.
Hopefully the players \ management can use this defeat to their benefit \ motivation.. Fingers crossed.
-
An update on the 54pts par score table
21 Luton
20 Crawley
17 Wimbledon
15 Rushden
10 Fleetwood
8 Mansfield
8 Newport
8 Kidderminster
5 Kettering
5 Darlo
4 Wrexham
4 Grimsby
2 Barrow
2 Tamworth
1 Gateshead
-1 Bath
-2 Eastbourne
-3 York
-4 Cambridge
-5 Alty
-6 H&Y
-6 Southport
-7 FGR
-10 Histon
We are near the bottom and have less chance to gain points than others because we have easier games coming up that we are expected to get points in. Home games against the bottom few will be crucial (states obvious!)
-
Well done to the travelling faithful, excellent effort....
-
Brilliant effort. I wish I could have been one of them
There would have been fifty there with people in the stand.
I bet the most vitriol comes from people who didnt even go.
-
Totally gutted by the result like all of us
We have to believe in our selves that we can pick ourselves up and get out of the relegation zone
" You will only ever fail if you give up "

:( :( :( :( :( :( :(
-
fantastic effort by all the fans who went today.
Keep the faith.
Heads up to all the players, come on. we can do this.
come on you red and white bastards.
LET'S BLOODY DO THIS.
