As Blakey from On The Buses used to say "You've made my day, Butler (or Peakie!) You've made my day"   :D

He was one of those players...cheap..looks like he could have a bit of promise and is either a legend or turns up at abbey hey.

I was concerned when his youtube clips video seemed to be the same stepover from 10 different angles.

In terms of my favourite Alty Clives, he is defo second.

Got to be third, at best, behind Freeman and Colbridge!  ;)

As for his best hairstyle, surely it's the one from "The Hair Bear Bunch". That was a better perm than the (then) wife had - and she said as much herself!

Would be fantastic for Barrow, Kettering and Crawley who would get, effectively, six more points for nothing!

For me, the magic memory of him would have to be playing Sheffield Utd in the replay at ML. I was stood on the grass bank (which has become the mausoleum) and we were kicking towards the open end. He came down the near (to us) touchline and cut in towards the goal before letting fly from distance. I was right behind the flight of the ball as it curved up and left into the top right hand corner of the net. A fabulous finish and a brilliant memory!

Clubs to appeal over Chester Expunging
Posted on: Fri 19 Mar 2010
Oxford United have confirmed that they are one of ten clubs that have registered an Appeal with the FA and Football Conference concerning the expunging of points, following the recent demise of Chester City.

The 125 year old club was expelled from the Football Conference after a vote by clubs at an EGM, following their failure to fulfil fixtures. They had until 5 March to appeal the decision. Having not done so, on 8th March, the Football Conference announced the board decision to expunge all points gained by any teams in matches against Chester City.

A spokesperson said

"The strength of feeling within the clubs that have appealed is that the decision to expunge points so late in the season was not the right way of dealing with this situation. We don't think that it was fair or reasonable when the Conference as a whole is considered. By the time Chester were expelled, 80% of the playing season had passed and we believe it would have been fairer to all to have awarded teams 3 points for the unplayed games, a solution the FA has previously implemented. This way all events that happened on the field of play, whether they be points gained or lost, bookings, injuries, bonus payments, goals scored etc all count, which is as it should be. We do not believe it fair that points and the record of goals scored are expunged, yet bookings incurred in those games remain in force and count towards match bans".

The Football Conference has until 8 April (21 days) to serve a reply, after which the FA will announce a date for a Hearing.









Seems a no-goer to me.

I think this simple statement on the club website, sums up Clive's time at Altrincham
Clive Moyo-Modise (right) has asked to be released from Altrincham FC to seek regular first-team football elsewhere and the Club has agreed to this.
We barely have enough fit players to fill the subs bench but yes, you may leave.
Indeed, GH won't put up with someone who hasn't got the right attitude
I don't believe for a minute that we have released him purely because of his 'attitude'! I suspect it may have more to do with the fact that his performances were so abysmal that he even made Wayne Entwistle look like Gerd Muller.

Showing your age a bit there, Cult!

(Having said that, someone of my age might have said "made Paul Dobell look like Geoff Hurst"!)

If he really wants a run in a team which is of his standard then fair play.

Vics?  ;)

"It says the 1st legs are going to be played on the 30th/31st March. If the Arsenal game is on the 30th then our attendance will drop by about 800-1000. Not even joking."

And we think WE have problems with Man U!! If ours dropped by that much there'd be nobody there :o ;D

He didn't seem to want to develop the 'Alty Attitude' the the present squad have grown between them.

A bit surprising really as we are likely to be playing at the highest standard he can aspire to. I never thought I'd see an ex- Rochdale big-time charlie!

Thought this one had been put to bed - however as someone has put him back on page one I can tell you he has finally been identified but not un masked !

Are you going to unmask him for us? He's more famous than Kendo Nagasaki!  ;D

Hoping for a win, happy with a draw. Any points from this one would be fine by me - they're a team in form.

Also, we've jinxed ourselves by beating them away! :D (e.g. Ebbsfleet, Barrow, Grays, Chester)







PS: This is an extra reason why we're going to take all three points at Mansfield next tuesday!  ;D

I've followed them for nearly 45 years and in that time I've gone from living at home with mum through 3 wives, 5 kids, 8 grandkids, lots of different jobs (and subsequent retirement!). One thing has remained constant all through this though - ALTY!

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Fantastic performance
« on: March 17, 2010, 10:01:46 AM »
What a thouroughly enjoyable performance. Those who stayed away missed a good game of football, there loss. I'm already looking forward to next season and we haven't finished this one yet. I hope we can find the resources to sign Ryan Brown, I also hope Carden stays. Nicky Clee just gets better and better. The 10 minutes before halftime were immense, not forgetting this is a team who are 5th and just had a good result at Oxford !

Also enjoyed the banter with Nathan Abbey, one of the things i love about football.

I think with the pressure off we have a few surprises up our sleeves against the likes of Oxford/ Stevenage...



Don't say THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you're right though. Last night was a fabulous team performance and I was genuines surprised and pleased with the lads who have come in - and who I didn't expect that much from. Just shows how astute the management team is here!

Come on you Supers!

Shouldn't have thought it's a goer - we can't afford to lose anyone else for the season surely?!
