Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Ollie

Beaten on his near post while stuck on his line for the first one. Didn't cover himself with glory on the second either. Three shots on target, two goals conceded. Not good.

I wasn't there, but got the impression from RR that George Wilson had a decent game. PP originally said he'd be going out on loan, but I'm getting the impression that he's being seen as a starter.

Could this be the only friendly I can remember where I care about the result? 🤔

I don't even care about the result. We won't send many first teamers into sheep country anyway.

Altrincham FC First Team / Pre-season Friendlies

« on: July 22, 2023, 04:05:01 PM »

I was always under the impression that we weren't allowed, under some obscure legislation, to play a pre-season friendly against a club from our own league. Yet this afternoon AFC Fylde have entertained FC Halifax (but possibly not the crowd since it finished 0-0).

Have I just imagined this "rule"?

If Nijmegen played there first team than around a four goal loss is what I expected. I would imagine they are a mid table championship outfit or there abouts

A bit of research bears out that they fielded many of the players who featured in their mid-table Eredivisie campaign last season (though notably they fielded a young keeper).

Listening on RR, we seemed to be second best, but Nijmegen would probably finish in mid-table in the Championship, so we certainly weren't disgraced.
