Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Dagenham Match Thread

Alas, I believe that Moult's booking today means that he will be serving a one-match suspension for the visit of Stockport County on Boxing Day.

For my money, he's our most important player.

Does the FA Trophy next week not count towards his suspension? I thought bans were instant at this level?

Amazing that we have the chance to renew an old rivalry and see a much loved winger return to The J. Davidson Stadium. It would be great to see Nicky Clee back here again.

No Christmas card for JJ this year, then.....

i'd be happy if he was just good at holding the ball up. a lot of jordan's forward play allowed hancock and others to score.

Agreed. The ball just seems to bounce off Ceesay's shins all the time when he plays up top. If we had a player who could hold it up and develop play as well as dcoring goals we would be a scary proposition!

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Best stream yet

« on: November 18, 2020, 10:22:12 AM »

Mine actually stopped a few times, but that might have been a local broadband issue rather than the stream itself. It really is an excellent package and credit is due to all who have made it happen. 👍🔴⚪

1. Stuart Coburn
2. Steve Cross
3. Clive Freeman
4. Paul Ellender
5. Andy Reid
6. Gary Anderson
7. Stuart Terry
8. Nicky Daws
9. Colin Little
10. Damian Reeves

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Radio Robins| Dover Athletic v Altrincham

« on: November 01, 2020, 10:38:21 AM »

I didn't realise what had gone on until yesterday evening. Absolutely dreadful behaviour by Dover and I hope all our guys are ok. 👍🔴⚪

It would have been good if they had agreed to it, but they don't owe us anything. You don't get any points for being "nice".

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Fitness

If starting them on the bench last night means they are firing on all cylinders and winning us 3 points at Dover, then that is fine by me. Some people were talking of Hartlepool as being somewhat of a free hit after our loss on Saturday, but saw Dover as a six pointer. If squad management necessitates rotation, do you rest players for the free hit or the six pointer? You can't have it both ways.

If fitness and fatigue were not an issue, Phil would be playing Kosylo and Mooney for 90 minutes every game, but life isn't that simple, unfortunately.

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Where is Max Clayton?

« on: October 25, 2020, 05:10:29 PM »

Yes, it was my understanding also that Clayton was on a short term deal, at least initially. His continued absence leads me to wonder how long it will be until his departure is announced.

We all realise that you don't just go down to the shop and pick up a quality striker off the shelf, but this clearly is a priority, as is replacing Lundstram.

Are we still able to utilise the loan market or has that door now closed until January?
