Chester will definitely see the season out. The latest rumour is that all the current squad can go as soon as they can find themselves a club and the season will be played out under the 'stewardship' of Maison who will bus in youngsters to form the team from his midlands 'centre of excellence' (wherever that it!) and re-group at the end of the season.

Some local thinking is that that will provide the breathing space for Ladak to clear the decks at Kettering so that he can move to Chester but this latter rumour seems to be a little less well supported. (I wouldn't bet against it though).

All in all however it's a GREAT time to be an Alty fan - and a conspicuous one - in the Chester/Wrexham area!

Vaughan and his cronies are just an absolute bunch of arseholes. It stinks what they've done to that club.

Careful, ALTY 1981. You just might have to go into a witness protection scheme if Mister Vaughan reads those comments...! I could never understand why Jim Harvey ever set foot in that club in the first place.

According to my excellent source at the Deva (who I met in the paper shop this morning!) he's just sold his house in Hereford and was desperate to make the job work at Chester because he wants to live in the (general/commuting) area where his kids go to school. He was hoping for the Tranmere job which would, for him, have been the dream scenario but is still hoping to get in at Kiddie - which, ironically, would now give him a commute the other way.

Blue Square  Premier Semi Final 1st Legs 29th & 30th APRIL 2010. 2ND legs 3rd & th MAY 2010. Play Off Promotion Final Sunday 16th May 2010, Wembley National Stadium.

one-off semis on 8/9 May, final can stay where it is. Isn't that a fair amount of time gained?

On the evidence of the hat, is that snowman a homage to Paul Showler, by any chance?

on the evidence of the body, it could be Tunna, Cult!

usual retort from the regulator.
 
we would have won that game hands down with a little vision and ingenuity. Stop making execuses.  I made a fair assessment, and the other 3 in my car agreed.

dino,

Would that be Fred & Wilma Flintstone and their daughter, Pebbles, by any chance....?

Well that's my first christmas "ho ho ho" since playing santa! Well done Cult!

Perhaps Dino's name is a typo? (i.e. should have been 'ld' instead of 'n')

I liked Joe very much - especially the knocking knees thing with Graham Barrow vs Chester but, good as he was, he wouldn't even make my top 5 Alty keepers

The great Peter Eales performed that manoeuvre with far more style though, Saughall...!

Yes, True Cult - and Goodison Park springs to mind particularly - but he didn't do the "pinning down the angry opposition player without really hurting him yet nevertheless making him look a proper tw*t" precursor to it! 

I must admit though, Peter Eales would have been in my top five easily.
