At last night's AGM of Altrincham Football Club, chairman Geoff Goodwin pledged to stay at the helm "for as long as the rest of the board wants me here". Conscious that he has 40 of the 52 weekends this year committed to attending karting events with his son, Jay, a highly promising kart-driver, Geoff did not want to be seen as not fulfilling his duties. But the rest of the Board was more than happy to endorse Geoff as chairman even if he could not attend many Saturday games. "I'd like us to play on Tuesdays and Fridays in future" quipped the chairman. .................................The Board revealed that it had held a special meeting to consider going full-time but had concluded it was not viable. Graham Heathcote referred to one unnamed player who had recently moved between two BSP clubs and was on a weekly wage of £1,700.

Great news to hear Geoff is staying around. We've had a few wobbles this season but I believe we are firmly on course to being a model of non-league football for years to come.

Any guesses at which club and player we're talking of here? 1700 a week is beyond a joke. There's players in the premiership who earn not much more than that. I hope he sh1ts goals.

Good news that Geoff is staying on.

I firmly believe if we can stay up this season we will build from strength to strength having the opprtunity to get players in who KNOW they will be in the BSP as opposed to being in the BSN and then getting a reprieve.

I just hope we can stay up.

Personally I can see use and Farsley staying up and Weymouth getting the drop.

Agree with the above posts - great news that Geoff is staying.

The way the club is run should be an example to all clubs at this level
