With respect I feel that those making the call for visible diversity on the board may be overlooking the possibility that there might be current board members who carry hidden diversity in the form of disabilities, sexual preference or religion.  

I’m not sure if I imagined this or it was a dream or something.  I have lucid memories of my dad taking me to watch Alty play at the Drill Field back in the early to mid-seventies on a damp, cold and misty mid-week evening.  I think that it may have been an NPL Cup tie and it was around this time that Alty seemed to be jinxed every time they played Vics, losing by the odd goal or getting a draw if we were lucky.
Anyway, one of the things I remember is that during the game a diesel locomotive hauling about 30 empty coal wagons came to a halt on the railway viaduct behind the ground and it sat there with the pulsating sound of the idling engine filling the air for the best part of the game.  Additionally, every now and again the train would edge forward a little and the empty wagons would all clank very loudly in a domino effect jolting every wagon from the first wagon to the back one (for anyone interested the loco looked like a Class 25).
So, back to the game, and the pitch was in a dreadful state, there was barely a blade of grass to be seen, just lots of mud, but this seemed to suit Alty and we raced into a 3 or 4 goal lead before half time.  Even more goals came in the second half and we were about 6-1 up when we all noticed that we could still hear the loco but the train was now shrouded in a thick blanket of fog.  Inevitably the fog engulfed the ground, the train was heard to depart and the referee abandoned the game after about 75-80 minutes with Alty thrashing Vics about 8-1.
The game was replayed and Vics won 1-0.  Does anyone else remember this happening?

I understand the reasons why the game was called off, but I am a tad disappointed with the way in which it was announced as emphatically ON only to be reversed a few hours later by which time I had already purchased rail tickets.  Following the "It's official - York game ON after league hold board meeting" announcement I thought it safe to make the purchase after waiting all week.  I now have to pay £20 cancellation fees but I guess it is better safe than sorry.   

Only have two problems with what the board has said:

2) Many of the (trouble-making) Chester fans come and go to Manchester Piccadilly via the Metrolink and that is also how many Alty fans get home so what will be done to combat this?

Why would they go to Manchester to get from/to Chester when there is a direct train from/to Chester calling at Alty every hour?  Manchester is in the opposite direction and adds to the journey considerably.

Or have I missed something?

Poor quality.  Also on Official site.

Everything has already been said that sums up our woeful performance.  If we are to entertain any idea of the playoffs we must do (very) much better than that essentially poor effort today.  The passing was terrible, we gifted them the ball so many times that I lost count, and not for the first game this season either.

Anyway  ...forgotten about it already.  We can (and will) bounce back on Tuesday.  COYR.

TT has been good all season but at fault for both goals. Shouldn't have been beaten over him like that.........twice......in the same game.

Agree with green.  Disagree with red.  Both their goals were flukey.  IMHO Tony has a real shout at being 'Player of the Season' if his form holds up.  Great save on Saturday from that volleyed shot.

... and another one
