Altrincham FC First Team / Contingency Plan
« on: December 25, 2023, 11:42:11 AM »
If Alty are awarded a penalty at the scoreboard end will we all watch (including the stewards) whilst we are treated to a repeat of the Trophy farce? Seriously, if the same thing is allowed to happen again we won't be amused if the kick doesn't succeed. We need a ring of stewards the crowd side of the barriers protecting the nets. They shouldn't complain. They've got form. I hope this is included in the pre match briefing to the security staff and not left to a stand off approach. Nothing wrong with welcoming our visitors but I think we've all got a pretty good idea what will happen if the stewards take a passive stance.

Erm, just watched the highlights.   Their long throw on their first goal looks like a foul throw to me.  No one has mentioned it at all so I guess I’m wrong??!!  Any refs out there?
Good spot, I'm pretty sure the player's momentum can't bring them in to the field of play.

Not that I think we deserved any more yesterday. We were actually pretty bad in parts yesterday and in previous years that would have been another loss we put down as the reason we're not making a playoffs push. Yesterday we did what we've done a lot this year stolen points we don't deserve... I love it.
Both feet must be either behind or on the line but not beyond it.It's frequently ignored.

When we got the free kick and a chance to equalize we don't have CCC on the pitch to take it because we've subbed him. I switched off in disgust. Anything happen?

Happy to trust the management on this.

Welcome back, Dan - you'll have our full support.

Agreed, hopefully it isnt a replacement for Newby , could mean  one of the wingers may go out on loan soon obviousy not Amaluzor
Can we lend Newby out who's on loan to us?😂😂😂

Our successful 1978 FA Trophy campaign began with a 0-0 away draw.

And that came after we had lost at the Semi-Final stage during the previous season.

Just saying...
You've sold it to me. I'm sussing out trains and hotels.

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...

Noticed that Hugill was on the bench for the Munich game.
Didn't really impress me in his stint with us. Nice the lad has the consolation of being recognised by another Trafford club.

Maybe the Halifax fans weren't allowed to pull the goal nets around whilst we took our pens this time?

 :o :o :o
I almost watched this for the first time thinking it was the pens from last night. It's still too soon. Still can't watch it. I'm in denial. It never happened.

If it's not been called off by 2pm it still could be!

Maybe didn't fancy the Q & A and being quized about what he does.🤥

I am puzzled by what a CEO is, and  does.
Would you prefer the term "Managing Director" They are in essence the same role?

Top dog in the building reporting to the board that owns the company. Buck should stop with them in terms of business decisions that adhere to the running operations.
I get that in retail ie Tesco and Sainsbury's etc but in a none league football club with modest turnover I think it's financially prudent to satisfy the criteria with one of the chairman fulfilling the role as they must have been doing pre CEO and will continue to do so now.

I unfortunately can't link it, but if anyone can get hold of Rod  Liddle's piece in today's Sunday Times ("Punish Forest Green for vegan pies, not ineligible players") it's a really humourous piece from a man who shares our sentiments towards "the little club on the hill".

If they're making pies out of vegans they should be punished. No excuses for that. Shocking.🤔
And ironically they wouldn't be vegan.😁

At 2pm nobody had access to the weather forecast and needed to fire up ceefax to find out what was common knowledge. No problem with the game being called off but the delay in making what was a clear and obvious outcome was pure pantomime and so untypical of the club. I await an "Oh no it isn't" response. 😁
