Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Players

I had the pleasure of standing next to Joey Jones on the terraces at Bromley yesterday. A bright, articulate young man. I got quite an insight into the career of a modern footballer, which he communicated really well. He has a lot to offer to younger players, and I can see him being an excellent mentor. He might not have played much this year, but I have no doubt at all that he will have made a big positive difference to many of the younger lads behind the scenes.

He also said that he was on a one-year deal, and with his injury he's likely to have to go and train with clubs to show he's fit before he gets anything. I wish him well.

As does mine. But it also says that away fans go in by entrance 3 a bit further down.

As entrance 1 is the opposite corner from where we'll be, I think that we're likely to be going in entrance 3 in reality.

On the subject of loans, do we have any United youngsters heading our way in the new year? Wouldn't be disappointed to have Maxi back...

I only caught the last 20 minutes, but it was fine while I was listening.

I wouldn't be surprised if we're giving Oyedele the maximum minutes we're allowed to.

The pitch looked short as well as bobbly - there really wasn't much room to play. I didn't think that the passing game really got together. We were easily the better side until they hit the bar (consensus seems to be it was well over the line), after which we seemed unable to string passes together. We looked a bit like a team that didn't know each other too well...

Although we weren't great, there was a good double save by their keeper from Jordan at the end of the first half, and Jordan had a really good chance, not quite dinking over the advancing keeper, early in the second. They had more territory, but I'd say we had much better chances. Wasn't an easy watch after they got one back - looked like a mis-hit shot to me - but it's hard to say they didn't deserve a goal.

As has been mentioned, Maxi looked a class apart when he came on. One of those players who looks like he has much more time than anyone else. We need to make the most of having him - he's too good to be back next season.

Job done. Not a great performance, but a good result. And nice to see two new goalscorers.

Looking back we owe you a debt
We cannot repay and we will not forget
Johnny you're the one
Can't believe you're gone
You're the King of Altrincham

It would be great to get beyond last season's total of 55. That would make it six consecutive seasons of improvement.

A point a game from here on in is enough for that.

Southern League Premier South (Step 3)

Promoted last year - on edge of playoffs.

I believe that we don't want other parties to know how much we will accept. Particularly if we think that they might be willing to pay more...

Right then, seeing as you mentioned it... Goal Of The Season contenders so far?


Lundstram's strike at Dagenham has to be up there

Did anyone else on here ever play for Stamford Lads, as managed by the former Crewe Alexandra left full-back and Hale-based window cleaner Peter Leigh?

I didn't play for them, but I remember playing against them a few times...

Weren't Unicorn (or their youth team) quite good at one time, along with Hale Barns United? I remember I used to frequently read about one or two lads from my school in SAM who played for HBU.

Not sure I ever played against Unicorn. I remember getting thrashed by Hale Barns United, as well as Flixton and Stretford Vics...

Would have been late 80s.

We're overdue an unexpected win.
