Ashley Alty,
Thank you for your support!
As WC Fields once said: "I like children.....but I couldn't eat a whole one".
P.S. Any of your bread & butter pudding left?!

You are thinking of Brian Taylor - giant centre half 1968-74.

Gary,
When one of the children falls down the Main Stand steps, breaks their leg and his/her parents then sue the football club, it may well wipe out the profits made by selling a few extra pies!
Oh, and garlic bread is the future....

Gary,
Whatever happened to my two Alty v Bangor City programmes from 1972 then?

Jez,
I was around eight years of age when my father first brought me to Moss Lane.
Unlike the majority of parents there yesterday, he certainly ensured that I didn't run around the Main Stand like a headless chicken (and, no, that is not a reference to Peter Band, before Mrs Band comes on here to reprimand me!!).
Yesterday was an accident waiting to happen in terms of children falling and injuring themselves and must have given the Alty stewards kittens.
No doubt then, the parents would have blamed the club for any incident!
Ballers,
If you seriously think that a gang of screaming young girls creates atmosphere, then I suggest that you spend your money on going to Westlife concerts rather than Moss Lane!
You are deluding yourself if you seriously believe that the seven and eight year old girls who were present yesterday are the future at Moss Lane!
They weren't interested and neither were their parents.
End of rant.

Please don't compare Joe O'Neill to Jason Gallagher.
Jason was a far more prolific goalscorer!
I'm certainly NOT enjoying watching him fail to score.
In fact, it's agony!
Why on earth would I want my team to fail to score?
Frankly - what a ludicrous suggestion.

Altrincham FC First Team / The Hand Of Hussin?

Noticed that Leigh RMI's goal at Harrogate Town today came courtesy of Eddie Hussin.
A neat one-two with an advertising hoarding perhaps?!

Did I blink and miss his goal then?!
Having a shot now and then would be a start!

Why Little?
He was well below his usual high standard.

As if today's match wasn't painful enough to watch, the regular dwellers in the Main Stand had to endure gangs of unruly and squawking children roaming all over the place all afternoon!
At times, the screeching from the young girls was so penetrating that I thought I had stumbled into a McFly concert by mistake.
What a nightmare!
Even the poor stewards looked cheesed off with trying to prevent the mob from running up and down the steps, which was a Health & Safety calamity waiting to happen.
Seriously....PLEASE....never again!
Can't they be accommodated in the Family Stand in future?

« on: November 15, 2006, 09:53:05 PM »
Surely, the definition of a striker implies that the player is someone who strikes!
Does one goal in 18 league games merit the use of such a noun or do we need to find another term for Joe O'Neill?!
Rod Thornley has managed twice as many goals in half as many appearances!

Just watched the Brighton v Vics goals on BBC Interactive.
Well, it had to be done, didn't it?
Who on earth was that hopeless lumbering ox wearing the No. 4 shirt for Northwich?
Good Lord, he made Jason Van Blerk look quick!

Never mind, at least Mike Connett can have a drink or two in the Boradroom after the game.
Mind you, I do hope that he doesn't end up having one over the eight.....
