Wonder if the club may use these last two home games, to give out some of the free tickets to kids, from that streaming promotion they did a few months ago?

Great earlier post about the building of the late 70's and early 80's team and comparing it to now. Remember the wobble towards the end of the 80/81 season, i think when JR got injured, the buying of Gary Hulme for a then record fee of i think around £5k and in the end winning the league from Kettering with a game to spare before the last game of the season  at home v Yeovil. Great shame that alot of that team were nearing the end of their careers at the same time and it was always going to tough for Tony Sanders to rebuild a team of a similar quality. Remember the stick he was getting towards the end from a few fans and always thought it a shame his managerial career at Alty ended that way.
As for now, someone has already mentioned one difference from back then is the number of subs allowed but also there is the difference in the use of loan players. Personally at times I've lost touch as to who is permanent and who is on loan, and it would be good to finish the season with a more stable starting 11, of players who should be with us next season and not end up having the same turnover of players we have had this season. Its petering out this season but can't see why we can't compete in this league next season, I don't think there are too many teams we should be afraid of.

Unfortunately if we are in Tier 2 by the time we play County, the game will have been postponed not only on Boxing Day but on at least one other date as well, meaning even more games to fit in before the end of the season. Bit disappointing the club hasn't put out a statement regarding the pitch and what can be done to mitigate the issues,  if anything,  this season.

No worries

Same for me as well

Anybody having issues getting a feed, put in the promo code, then clicked apply code and place your order but its going no further?

After watching a great Alty performance, in convincingly beating a decent team like Spennymoor, I must congratulate whoever picks the post match music. To hear Tom Sawyer by Rush whilst departing the Golf Road, was an unexpected bonus.

I thought the ref had an ok game, though not sure what Jordan did to get booked. We do have alot of Alty fans who start having a go at the ref if an opposing player dares to touch an Alty player or if an Alty player hits the deck. They don't seem to realise that we do have a few players who look for free kicks too easily, Mahon you can see already, is one of those players.
Also in the second half when the ref let play go on when the linesman flagged for offside, the ref got a load of stick, when he was right. The linesman thought the Kettering no 7 was going to collect a pass when he was offside, but he left it for another Kettering player, who wasn't offside and so the linesman was wrong and the ref was right. A fair few Alty fans dont know the offside rule.
As for the game I thought a draw was a fair result. We improved 2nd half after a really poor 1st half, but I can't remember their keeper making a save. Thought they were not a bad team and really well organised at the back.
