Could the Community Sports Hall be converted into a field hospital with George Heslop assuming the role of matron à la Hattie Jacques?

That sounded like a most trying afternoon's work for all involved.

Just got home from game.

Parry looked decent, Coburn looked bad as he was carried off.

Nothing in the game, the goal was scored whilst Coburn was down injured, game should've been stopped.
Not a bad performance in my opinion, terrificly taken goal by Bowerman

Pitifully small away support (maybe to be expected).

I don't go all the away matches myself like I did as a younger and travel and games are dear but collectively the amount we take away is like the clubs we used to take the piss out of for taking 20 to us

Not everyone has the time and money to give up their whole day(7am-11pm) to travel to Dover. Credit goes to those who did make the trip from Alty. To say our support away support is pitiful is a bit out of order.

Sorry Pitiful was probably the wrong word to use but it was definitely the smallest following I've seen watching Alty, as you would expect given cost/distance lack of coach etc. I meant more exceptionally small given how many we normally take even to the further away games in previous years.

I think it was also exacerbated by the fact that some people are still away on family holidays and, in my case, working all the time at present due to people being on holiday at work!  :(   

People go when their finances and circumstances allow, but well done to those who did make it yesterday and see you all at Moss Lane next Saturday!  :)

From my point of view, my own personal circumstances have changed over the summer (buying my 1st house being the main one), so I knew Woking and Dover were no go's. I'm still going to make as many away games as I can, but I know that the days of Dover on a Tuesday night won't be happening 😔
