"Gulls' boss Paul Buckle said: 'I was pleased with the performance. I felt we dominated the game. What was it - 18 corners to us? In some ways, it was the same in the game against them at our place... I thought 1-0 would be enough in the second half'.... Altrincham manager Graham Heathcote declined to comment on the after-match scenes and said briefly: 'We competed with a very good team - simple as that'".

Is it just me or did anyone else feel we played the better football?  Certainly in the first half anyway!?

Or am I just being biased??

not at all being biased mate!!

I to read it and thought this wasnt the case. They had their spells but i wouldnt say "they dominated" the game at all .......... far from it !!

Bodes well he cant see or tell the truth, so the final whistle "rumble" annalysis can be taken with a pinch of salt then .........

50 50 in my opinion, but maybe they edged, certainly did NOT dominate that is just a joke.

For the first 20mins or so they couldn't get into our half ....

And to get 'corners' doesn't mean anything, you can take a lot of long range shots that deflect off people and get corners but is that better than hitting the post or just going wide ??

We created chances and I don't remember them having any more clear cut chances than us.

Glad to see that my memory is still working (sort of!)

First half I thought we controlled the pace of the game and had more possession etc.
