Altrincham FC First Team / Denham??
« on: March 13, 2011, 09:03:13 AM »
As I am away at the moment I have not read all the posts but anyone have an update for Denham's return????

It has been another season of unlucky injuries and suspensions, if we had a fit Chris Denham and Clee on a regular basis we wouldn't be down there !!!

Can not remember the last time those two were in the same team, the thought of Reeves, Clee and Denham as a forward line in our favoured 5-2-3 formation is exciting !!!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Team and formation - thoughts ????
« on: January 10, 2011, 12:28:44 PM »
I am interested in what team and formation people would choose with current players if everyone is fit.........................


                                                              Coburn (GK)

                                                               Smith (CB)
                                             Williams (CB )                   (CB)    ?              
           Densmore ( RWB )                                                                       Doughty or  Piergiannim (LWB )

                                                                Somner (DM)

                                        Danylyk or Lawton  (CM )    Hewson ( CM )

                          Denham (RF)                                                           Clee (LF)

                                                                   Reeves ( CF )

I think that we play our best football with the above formation. I know Ken is probably still looking but we need another centre back because I am not getting carried away with Joseph, my opinion is that he is full of mistakes, also we could do with a box to box centre mid who can score, we always sit too deep in centre mid and invite pressure. I like Hewson because he has lots of energy and gets into the box, I feel he needs a lot of games in a row and he will become a great asset. Reeves has done really well and deserved his chance a long time ago. hopefully he has got it now. Our main problem this season is keeping Denham and Clee fit and at the same time.    Also the above formation allows the wing back to assist the wide forwards, both Densmore and Doughty are very good at this as they have good stamina to get back and cover !!!!Anyhow keep going Alty, I only said a few weeks back that we just need a bit of belief!!!

When graham went I posted that it was too early and I hoped that we would not regret it. I know I will get it in the neck but graham was the only man for the job. It ain't working with ken, wish it was different but we are in the sh*t. He just can't get the team going, we will get relegated without two more defenders and a forward and some bloody passion and confidence.
Its embarrassing!
We would have never conceded 6 against them with graham, rubbish

Altrincham FC First Team / Hewson and Craney
« on: October 16, 2010, 10:10:43 AM »
Just read that Denham is out again, bloody hell. I hope Hewson gets a chance today, think he deserves a run out !!!!

I am looking forward to seeing one of my favourite ex Alty players in Ian Craney, at one point he was the only player carrying us. An Alty legend in my eye's, hope he gets a good welcome !!!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Today !!!!
« on: October 03, 2010, 12:56:14 AM »

I was leaving the ground today hearing people say that it was great draw, WHAT THE f**k???? We were bloody awful today and so were they,apart from the fat striker upfront who was a handful !!!!
I always chat on so I will keep it simple…..

Hewson for Crowel

lDenham always last man, for his pace!!!!

Joseph still sh*te and makes the defence so nervous. I have been told Coats claimed the ball and he headed it, which led to their goal. Joseph ain’t improving, the team around him are !!!! he scares me to death, he is sh*t !!!!!

There were debates a few weeks ago about players not showing heart and desire, McCarthy will never ever be the answer to our problems, he is lazy, weak and to be honest I would not give two monkeys if I did not see him in an Alty shirt again. People will stand up for him but all I’ll say is that I’ll eat my words if I am wrong, but I am confident he ain’t good enough by a country mile !!! Holsgrove is not good enough but he causes more mayhem than McCarthy when he comes on !!!

There are two players that I have been wrong about in the last ten or more years and they are Nicky Clee and Robbie Lawton. Nicky Clee is one of the best players I have seen at this level for close control and dribbling, Robbie is a lot fitter this year and is on a mission, respect !!!

We need Coburn back because Coats is dodgy and gets nowhere near long range shots.

And finally… I know we scored from a set piece but we are and have been for years so sh*t at set pieces. We have Lawton and Smith who both have a leap, defending???. Our only option is Robbie Williams. Also why do we and other teams from kick off hammer it to the by line, nothing comes from that tactic, Ill rather give it Nicky Clee the ball and let him run. The tactic is used a lot in footy now and is f**king rubbish !!!!
Today was poor and we need to start picking points up !!!!

Well done Reeves for taking his chances !!!

We need tp step it up otherwise we are going down !!!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Denham = genius
« on: September 26, 2010, 02:16:56 PM »
What a difference Denham makes, he covers the ground of two forwards. We need to keep him fit otherwise we will struggle. Again not at all impressed with McCarthy, he has not got a centre forwards football brain and has no strength what so ever, time he is dropped. We need a strong forward who can hold the ball up and lay it off to the likes of Denham, oh we did have one of those a few weeks back. Densmore is having a great season but we need him at RW back and we Doughty back fit. Grimsby were not a good team and I would have liked to see our wing backs making more ground down the channels because at times we are too central. When Densmore and Doughty play that position they cover the ground very well. We need a centre back ASAP, even before a striker and I still would have Col Little on the bench. Hewson looks a good player, strong and gets into the box, we need to fit him into the team so I would put Densmore back to wing back even though he has been quality. I think we won’t have a choice because Welch is injured anyhow, I still sh*t it when Joseph is anywhere near the ball, he is full of errors. Great to see determination and spirit back in the team. I do not think anyone else should take this job except McKenna !!! onwards and upwards, still getting adrenaline rushes from the goals yesterday, Denham’s was pure class, what a legend !!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Get Dale back !!!
« on: September 19, 2010, 04:02:41 PM »
Can we not terminate Twiss contract as mutual consent. We need Dale back, mistake letting him go !!! McCarthy as posted not long ago will not bang them in !!!!

I hope I eat my words but I think it Heathcote going willl be a mistake, because yesterday is a sh*t way to step it up for a new manager

Altrincham FC First Team / Heathcote
« on: September 11, 2010, 05:09:34 PM »
I know it doesn’t look good at present but I think getting rid of Heathcote will be a bad move, he knows the club inside out and he understands our financial position. Anyone else will cripple us financially. I think we made a massive mistake getting rid of Dale, I understand he wasn’t prolific but he held the ball up and often it needed two defenders to get the bloody ball from him. Before his injury he was our best player and I think he deserved some more games because James McCarthy will not score many, he doesn’t even look like a striker. I think he looks a good player but he will not score the goals we need, plus I don’t think he is a handful like Dale was. We need Denham fit every week because he will score but his constant injuries are a worry. We do need another centre back, Joseph is very poor, reminds me of a bad Karl Munroe. We need a centre mid who can dominate box to box, tackling, distribution, shooting etc but where do we find one without money??? I think we will come good and it is a good move getting Col back !!! Need Matty and Tom back, Brown isn’t a good defender but I think he’s OK for cover !!!! Confidence is rock bottom but a change of manager will not work for this club !!! I am pretty sure without Graham we would not be in this league !!!! onwards and upwards I bloody hope !!!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Denham
« on: September 09, 2010, 10:11:20 AM »

Does anyone actually know what injury Denham has? we need him fit and playing each week. He makes such a difference up top and is the closest thing we have to Chrissy Senior but he always misses every other game. Its like having an attacking Ledley King !!!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Graham Heathcote
« on: April 01, 2010, 12:54:10 PM »
I have read some posts about getting a new manager, some people haven't got a clue. If we went full time or even got a new manager then the club will sink. We do not bring enough supporters in to go full time, plus we need to spend on ground improvements to even think about going up. Graham has done an unbelievable job, anyone else and this ship would have sunk a long long time ago. If we had a fully fit team I honestly believe we would have made the play offs. Hopefull Kearney and Johnson can get themselves fully fit plus the signing of 3 more quality players we will be there next season. I honestly believe our defence is one of the best in the conference, just need to tighten midfield up, Doran has helped in that department. Need cover for the wings and left back, I have been impressed with Brown but I would still try and persuade Danny Adams. Going back to Graham, he has done an amazing job, he and Big Ken have the ability to attract quality players on a part time wage. I am quessing the people who have been mentioning a new manager are young kids who have not been around non-league football for a number of years. In this league there is a  fine line between spending/going full time and going bust. I have been really happy this season and as I said 3 more quality players, plus keeping most of the squad then we will be up there. A fit Dale Johnson will be like a new signing. I would let Robbie go this summer, really struggled this season.

Altrincham FC First Team / Lawton
« on: March 19, 2010, 04:42:50 PM »
Just read that Robbie Lawton is aiming to be fit. We are a lot better team without Robbie unfortunately. However he's an OK squad player and I'd rather have him come on in centre mid than Welsh. The subs baffled me on Tuesday, we were in control and looking to extend our lead then we take Clee off and put Welsh on. This immediately invited pressure onto us but we held out. It will be a much harder game tomorrow, I would start Denham over John Mc. John was a lot better on Tuesday but way off this standard.

Altrincham FC First Team / Adams and Twiss
« on: March 09, 2010, 06:49:23 PM »
I'm surprised about Adams and Twiss going to S.Celtic, I think both would have been worth looking at, especially Danny Adams. Solid left back. Lets nab them !!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Last night
« on: February 17, 2010, 11:53:28 AM »
My first look at Doran, before he got sent off and he looks like a good signing, strong, direct and box to box player, sorry Mr Lawton but there is no room at the Inn for you. If he has to play Robbie for whatever reason it has to be for Danylyk not Kearney or Doran.

The whole team played well last night but Clee, Senior and Denham were awesome. We look a lot more of a threat with those two up top rather than the slow and un-impressive John Mc !!!

Well done Alty, gutted Doran is now banned for 3 games, I want to see more - animal !!!!Also our most suited formation, solid at the back

209
Well done lads, great result. Money is tight for all but if people can cut their beer round down by a couple of pints, miss out on your weekly takeaway, don't wear any deodorant for a while then we can all put a bit extra in the bucket collection. £2 or £3 by all would make a huge difference. Lets help our magic club. I have realised during this bad weather without my Moss Lane visits I would die of boredom, keeps my blood pumping - sometimes too much. Keep going boys !!!

Altrincham FC First Team / Shower of sh*te !!!!
« on: November 14, 2009, 05:23:24 PM »
Formation was completely wrong second half. Should have stuck with 4-4-2 with Col and Senior upfront, there one two’s in the 1st half caused a lot of problems. I am guessing Graham changed it to stop there midfield from playing, but it just did not work. In that second half apart from Little dropping deep we had no player that could slow the game and pass the ball around in Midfield. Lawton was OK, but him and Danylyk can not take control of games, they just panic and kick the ball. Owens looked as if he didn’t want to be on the pitch and looked lost to be fair. Guessing Denham was struggling because if not then it was another crap sub because he was awesome in the first half. Densmore’s season is getting worst, he was horrendous today for the whole 90mins,he deserves to be dropped from the team for a while until he sorts his head out. Only problem with that is Smith would have to go there and we need his pace at centre half. I am really wasting my money at the moment watching this sh*te, we were yards of there players and the pace second half, the commitment in closing down there men was poor. First 30 mins we closed down well, after that we were lazy. Players need to look at themselves and start playing with some f**king heart !!!
