I am very surprised, disappointed and saddened with the Chairman's notes. That was not the forum to start slagging off supporters. I have not seen any personal remarks regarding family members on twitter or this forum. Though I hope the Chairman has contacted the authorities, or at least spoken to those responsible.
I am really at a loss as to why these comments would be made to the non-league paper. It makes the club look pretty poor. Surely, our biggest attendance of the year would have required a more welcoming and appreciative tone, given that we havent won yet, however over 2355 turn up?
To say the whole board were supportive of Young is remarkable. Ive never seen such a poor & embarrassing showing. Yet, most of the players have improved with some decent tactics. It was quite clear that Young had to go after the Curzon game, although we haven't picked up any points, the performances have been better.
There is no doubt that Grahame and the Rowley's have done lots for Altrincham over the years. However, if they left tomorrow, their legacy will remain and someone else could bring in a much needed bond between all supporters. I do feel sorry for the Chairman, as you cannot please everyone all the time. However, looking where we are now, compared to last year or the year before I can easily see why some supporters are very upset. I fear that that there will be a division between some supporters and the Chairman, given the appetite for rounding the wagons and lashing out at those who dare to question the logic of some illogical decisions.
