I didn't attend Saturday, when I eventually found the score out due to being in the wild of the west lakes I saw Altrincham 1-0 Barrow. A superb result against a club with big ambition, and big pockets. Im as good as the next man/woman at totally losing my sh*t at football games, but seriously what the hell is going on? I'm not surprised the manager is pissed off. It must be like a dripping tap from the back of that mainstand. We aren't a big enough club to have factions. Some people seem to derive pleasure from paying 15 quid to bait the manager, and I don't just mean this manager, all of them in my time, apart from king and McKenna..
Look at where the club is at, compare ourselves to AFC Telford, AFC Halifax, Nuneaton, Dartford, Eastbourne etc. This club/team is making slow and steady progress. Maybe a player be it the managers son or someone else isn't floating eveybodies boat, but slaughtering a young 21-year old midfielder at every turn is never going to help his confidence. If people want a manager out that's delivered steady progress every season he's been here, what do you want in charge? And are you happy for the playing budget to be cut to pay for it. We are all entitled as customers to express displeasure on occasion, but get some perspective. And one question, if kingy was in charge and playing Jeff king, would we see the same sort of abuse? Or Kenny Mc blooding a McKenna Jnr? I doubt it. It's all very well venting on here, that's what it's for, but of we are at the stage of abusing and heckling rather than encouraging when we are actually winning, it's a poor state of affairs.
