Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Since when did the Main Stand at Moss Lane become a creche?
« on: November 21, 2006, 01:30:25 PM »
I think this says it all. from www.altrinchamfc.com
After Saturday's game, Mr John Barnett, chairman of the Timperley and District Junior Football League, said that the Featured Club event had been a great success and that his League looks forward to developing further its links with Altrincham FC. Meanwhile, Altrincham FC Schools Coordinators, Dana Laidlar and Karen Rowley, have already received a letter from a representative of Forest Park School, Mr Neil Swift, indicating that the children enjoyed their visit very much. Mr Swift added that, "In typical Alty fashion, everyone at the Club made us feel welcome and it was particularly impressive that the Manager found a few moments to come and say hello. One of the early 'pay backs' for the Club will be the record takings at the catering wagon... There must be some re-stocking to do today

I'm sure people would not mind if they had to wait until 2pm to get to the snack bar, just like I'd have to wait til 2pm as I also use that door as soon as I enter the bar to sort things out like the Flags and get the Buckets for the Bucket Collection ready.
As I said I would man that door if needs be but too be honest the need for it to be open prior to 2pm is minimal. I'm sure it could be opened for Ian and Campbell to sort out the Club shop as and when required but if not Ballers and Myself would gladly help.

I have just spoke to someone who was in the Main Stand during the game he or she (does not want to get involved so hence the he\she) said that it was about 5 - 10 Kids maximum who were being unruly. So that means maybe 10% were annoying whereas the other 90% did no harm.
He\She also said that there was a group of 5 kids sat infront of him\her who were trying to remember players names and were getting involved with 'oohhh's and ahhhh's" when things were happening on the pitch. They were playing a game where the first person to know who had the ball got a point. Which is great to see I think we all agree ?
So as always happens in life don' t let the few stop what was a great idea.

Must admit last season getting to the ground and it being in darkness was a little of a worry

Now this is maybe best described as the opposite of FGR.
Grays were amazingly helpful last season and I would urge all those that go to the game to use their bar and food facilities. Buy a Golden Goal or Raffle Ticket.
A BIG thank you will be heard from me when I get to see Mick Woodward. A true gentleman of the game.

I can't believe that the excellent idea of attracting children (and their parents) to Moss Lane has caused such a long debate.
I thought it was \ is an excellent idea by the club and shows that we are being proactive in the community. This can only make us look good to the local public and more importantly the local council.
I am 100% for this to continue and salute the club for doing it.
I think we have come to the conclusion that no one is against the idea but more on how it was done, Maybe those that complained could offer a solution ?
It is as important to keep the current fans happy as it is the potential new ones.
I think this was the best solution so far by SW ...
Things are starting to get silly now. As I said earlier, much earlier, all the kids should be welcomed. If they are generally and collectively being a nuisance a simple announcement over the PA requesting them to sit down or asking parents to ensure they sit down should suffice in all but the most persistent cases

Again IF the club would like me to I would watch that door until 2pm, if they prefer an official steward then fair enough but seeing as we are all volounteers I can not see why there would be a problem with this ?
I'm sure if I'm late then I can ask an other fan to watch, I'm sure myself and the lads who sit near the TV can self police that door for an hour and a half ?, or as was said not open it until 2pm ?

I try to get to the bar for 12.30 on a Saturday and would watch the door (as I sit near there anyway) until 2pm or when a Steward turns up ?
I would watch it all the time but feel the bar takings would be effected and defy the point of the bar being open early)
Gaz

Flag was excellent. I'm not going to beat around the bush and will say that was a pathetic away turnout BUT thats not your fault and fair play to you for attending, along with your flag 
.
I would have thought at least all those that are boycotting the home games would make the effort to go to away ones ?
Cold ... Cold ... That was a glorious Northern Day , almost wore my shorts

« on: November 19, 2006, 07:59:22 PM »
And is there a divine right that says Alty cannot have two players capable of scoring more than ten goals a season
I was merely saying that how do you know that Joe won't score 10 goals this season ?
I was also originally saying that to have 2 'Prolific' goalscorers would be very lucky. We are part time and can hardly afford players of such ability, yes granted we may unearth a gem from the Youth or local leagues but doubt they would last as season if that prolific. Its rare (but not unheard of) at any level that a football club has 2 goal machines on the books.
