Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Barnet Match Thread
« on: September 09, 2023, 07:13:35 PM »Watched the National League TV stream, which featured some very dodgy camerawork (including at one point bizarrely zooming in on the anti-pigeon netting underneath the roof of the main stand!).
We were comprehensively outplayed and Barnet could easily have doubled their goal tally.
I would say that Ethan Ross is the only Alty player to have emerged with any credit from what was a hugely dispiriting performance.
Merely two shots of note on target, from Crankshaw and Amaluzor respectively. Conn-Clarke a peripheral figure. Ponderous stuff, once again, and our defence looked about as watertight as HM Prison Wandsworth. Embarrassingly fast asleep for that corner which resulted in their third goal.
I am already worried about Banks (who was fortunate to avoid a second yellow card) and Joey Jones looks light years off the pace.
We can only pray that Crankshaw's injury isn't as serious as it looked. Amidst rumours that Regan Linney will be out of action until Christmas, the necessity to enter the loan market looms large once again.
