Excellent. Exactly the team I wanted, Johnson in for Senior with Senior to come on for Elam or Little late on. Brownhill a sub? Doesn't Brownhill play for Droylsden??

I do hope we are making a proper game of this without tinkering with formations etc.
The team need to ask themselves if they want a cup run, get on MOTD etc.
-
I hope Graham is screaming Luton at them.
Eyes on the prize boys.
-
My contact at the game has now gone and decided to get chips and curry and says he can't hold a phone whilist eating :) more updates in 10 mins
-
Bloody BBc doncaster belles 1-0 Blackburn Ladies,and we cannot get on
-
I really did think that having the draw for the 1st round before we played favours NBS. They will just give that extra 10%
-
We should be giving 100% all the time.
-
We should be giving 100% all the time.
Precisely. At our level we should be professional enough to do this job.

Nothing on ITV sport website, but there are odds on Altrincham Town on Skybet

I wouldn't expect it to be easy, but we need to stop them from playing. They will be very fired up.
-
we knew it was a tricky tie
-
1-1 Colin Little 100th goal

Yet the tension mounts as Darren's mate slowly eats his curry and chips! :-\

Don't worry. The updates are a godsend.

I heard the 2nd was an own goal from their player/manager from a doughty corner
-
Possibly an own goal apparently, but quite frankly who cares!
-
no as long as we win which sounds quite likely at the moment but you never know :o

Whitley Bay fan? That's a first on here, hello mate.
I'd expect we have 150-180 there today so looking at NBS gates so far I'd guess at 330-380.

My father in Alty has just rung to see how we are doing.

First Whitley Bay now Kilmarnock! Getting very exotic on here this afternoon.
If you win me some money you may never get rid of me ;) ;D
-
First Whitley Bay now Kilmarnock! Getting very exotic on here this afternoon.
Thats the first time, and probably the last Kilmarnock and Exotic have been mentioned in the same sentence.
-
No probs! Except our one and only source today, Darren's mate, is either still in the bog or has gone for another pint?
-

I am a Nuneaton Borough (Town) fan...like a few people i have an accumulator, so needing an alty win
-
God i am an Alty fan and i would not bet on us
-
Exotic dies a slow and painful death.
Welcome Nuneaton! Sorry about the current plight at Boro. How's things?
-

-
Exotic dies a slow and painful death.
Welcome Nuneaton! Sorry about the current plight at Boro. How's things?
Plight indeed. Yesterday we got a awful win (yes it is possible to have an awful win) 1-0 against a tiny village called Woodford Halse with a population of less than 2,000....reality of how low we are really hit home, i wouldnt wish going into admin or liquidation on any team...
-
How about an Alty fan in Oslo. Norway? No live scores was doing my head in, then I found you guys - keep up the good work with the scores!

What a shame, I remember a FA Cup game against boro a few years back, you were in Conf and us Unibond, we won 3-0. Always remember because your lot had an illuminous orange away kit. Who was the coloured lad that played up front ?
-
bloody hell i remember that, and coburn saved an pen and was awsome
-
Senior on for Johnson
-
My source now gone awol if he doesn,t answer soon i am going to post his number in the nearest phone box :P
-
lol yea do that
-
A tip for everybody ( as there are a lot of people with accumulators reading) don't back Kilmarnock EVER. If i had a quid for time they burst my coupon i would be richer than Bill Gates
-
It's ok. I have a mate there too who will txt if it changes.
-
My source now gone awol if he doesn,t answer soon i am going to post his number in the nearest phone box :P
I insist you blacken his eyes later, tell him its from me.

That was probably barry williams. Our orange kit came back last season...dire. Hopefully play you in a league of some sort in a few years! hopefully the higher the better!

Elam off Meecham on

-
what do you make of meechan??
-
Stuart just made a great save!
-
How long left?
-
Don't ever depend on Killie for anything exept their pies!
-
Just I was starting to think we were nearly there you worry me with that....come on Alty hold on.
-
7 mins
-
My son's team conceded 4 in 7 mins yesterday ;D They are terrible.
-
3 mins addae time
-
I take it we are still 2-1 up with 7mins left ?
-
If we get the result it is a bananaskin avoided
-
yep
-
Full time Luton ere we come
-
Blue Star all over Alty with 5 left, attendance only about 400
-
won 2v1
-
wohooo
-
what do you make of meechan??
Very talanted player if hes played right, he is not an out & out right, left wing or midfield although got 2 good feet, gaffer wood have to leave out Colin (& he wont do that) to see meeks full potential as they are two of a kind.
-
good got the job done thats all we needed
-
Blue Star all over Alty with 5 left, attendance only about 400
Did you change your clock last night mate?
-
No little relief to get this match over.
We're the famous Alty FC and we're going to Wemberly!
Thanks for the updates
-
Luton invasion here we come ;D
-
at least we didn't get a draw for a reply, weeks rest for Histon
-
A good result safely out of the way without the need for extra games (replay) that we can well do without given the size of our squad.
Well done Alty - what number league scalp would Luton be? 17?
-
Thanks to my mate for letting me pester him during the game
-
Great result lads, my opinion on Meechan is that he is poo !!!
-
A nice pot of cash too-what is the win today-about 12K?
-
Killie fan, any chance of a sub till payday ;D
-
A nice pot of cash too-what is the win today-about 12K?
£12500 plus a share of the gate reciepts
-
havant and waterlooville got £500k for the match against liverpool, guess we can get £30k for the gate share of luton?
-
A nice pot of cash too-what is the win today-about 12K?
£12500 plus a share of the gate reciepts
plus a guarenteed £7500 from next rounds MOTD coverage so a nice little earner!
-
and with 5000 fans paying approx £15 each that is £75,000 gate receipts split 50/50 is a nice earner of £37.500 and probably more as entrance fee expected to be higher than £15 i would have thought.
So in total £50,000 from the FA CUP this year :-)
-
Mate at the game says that we were hanging on at the end and were lucky to get away without a draw, but a win is a win, bring on the Luton
-
Is that for brief highlights or a featured game?

Gates receipts are only shared once all the home teams matchday expensives have been covered

They were bound to throw the sink at us what did they have to lose. A job well done, good luck Newcastle BS for the rest of the season.

Arf! ;D Tried that already and it doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere! Might try the "Only chance to get footy in for another year" line.....see if i get anywhere there!

I distinctly recall a conference on fathering and being a good husband on luton on the same day.
-
who scored alty's 2nd goal

Chris Lane

chris lane header I believe

Tell her you have flown 5000 miles to the UK and you are not missing the game for her or anyone] Erm, grovel like hell. Tell her you'll bring some Luton rock home. :-\

12500 in the pocket next luton town+ half their gate money
;D ;D
-
EERRRMMMM
That is Alex my sons posting, not mine!!
The real Steve from Sale!
-
Luton's average att is 6,000, lowest of 5,794 or something but assume that we're not a great draw for them and say there is about 4,500 there.
4,500 x £10 (average inc concessions etc) = 45,000
- costs of staging game £8k?
= £37,000. Don't think it's split completely 50/50 as the FA take some.
Would prob say about £15k, we won't be on tv either I would've thought and you don't get £7 k just for showing the goals.
Reasonable draw though.
-
Well this was my first live Alty match of the season and therefore my first look at the 'new way' we are going. Must say I like the balance of the side, here's what I thought. Please don't shoot me down in flames, just opinions, mere opinions.
COBURN: How Alty could have survived that last few years without him and the odd AGM? Couple of class saves at the end when frankly NBS should have equalized. Only slight worry is he doesn't boss the box enough for me
LANE: Scored I know, but didn't see much else from him
McGREGOR: He looks a little lightweight to be played CB, is he a Right-back really? Not convinced and certainly not a captain.
YOUNG: What an impressive and imposing player he is. My M.O.M. and he should be captain.
DOUGHTY: Obviously has the skill, but seems lacking in confidence. Him and Elam gives us great purpose going forward, but Youngy had to cover a lot in defence.
DENSMORE: Skill and work-rate with quality too. Loved him.
DANYLYK: I know the forum raves about him so I'll refrain from being too negative, but didn't see anything at all of him of note.
PEYTON: We all know what we get from Warren, 110% and all that.
ELAM: It is so good that Alty have a player who instantly gives the opposing RB sleepless nights just coz he is on the team sheet. Quality yes but his work-rate also impressed me.
LITTLE: Genius. Did more in 5 mins that most of the lads do in 90. Class.
JOHNSON: He's a player who seems to have it all but lacks the confidence and aggression to make that step up to the grade as a genuine target man. Someone should get him by the scruff and tell him to be more imposing and make his mark.
PS the Italians was great - Quattro Stagioni. Yum!
-
What formation did we play on Sunday?
-
We played about 5 different formations. Seriously.
-
It looked 4-4-2 to me, but Ballers does have a point.
-
midfielders were everywhere. and am i right in thinking densemore was in midfield, because it looked that way.
-
We played about 5 different formations. Seriously.
If my memory serves me correctly, our formations were as follows:-
We started with 4-4-2
When NBS scored we went 3-4-3
We then reverted to 4-4-2.I can't quite remember whether that was after the first or second goal,but I think that it was the second.
At one point in the second half we were definitely 4-5-1.
-
Why have we started f**king about with the 5-4-1 in defence converting to 3-4-3 in attack? That was working brilliantly, then GH seemed to get psyched out by Hollins pre-Weymouth and now it seems we're messing around. Can't we stick with what has proved to be a really effective system? :-\
