Play off as part time would be sensational. I just want to stay up and progress.

For the work they have done so far and the plaudits they are receiving, Phil and Neil will undoubtedly and quite rightly be on strategic 'forward planning' shortlists for a lot of clubs at our level, and probably the level above. I don't see how they can't be. This is why they're so well looked after here. The contract lengths took a wee bit of stick but if they were due to expire next May then we would be really open to a poaching scenario. As it is though they are secured here and that will factor into other clubs' thinking, I'm sure.

A contract in footy is worth less than in most industries. The key to keeping PP and NS is for the board to match their ambitions for themselves and the club. I am sure they want a crack at a league club, let's make that club Alty.

I believe their manager is Alan Devonshire. What a top player in his day and that's from a Spurs fan!! SBL

A very decent player who was rejected by Crystal Palace because of his short stature. He was driving a forklift at the Hoover factory and playing part time in the Isthmian League for Southall when West Ham paid a measly £5K for him. Despite injuries blighting his career, he won 8 England caps and an FA Cup winner's medal, finishing his career at Watford. There aren't many (any ?) at this level to match that level of achievement.

Wasn't Mr. Coburn rejected by Palace for the same reason?

Matty Doughty was fuming that he didn't get the job  ::)

Please don't. The thought alone makes me feel queasy.

"Every year we have seen a step up" is the thing that delights me. Staggering changes throughout the club over this past few years, it's fantastic!

Altrincham FC First Team / Brown Out

Phil Brown sacked at Southend. Whether that will turn their season around is a very different matter.

Pringle was by far the best player on the pitch in that first half, perhaps faded in the second but it's great to know we have players of similar quality ready to step in.

Where was Ryan Colclough, by the way?


I heard that he has tested positive for Covid-19.

If that's the case are we facing another fortnight off? If not, what was the last lot about?

My internet tells me that Ashington is 55.18316° N, Workington is 54.636936° N and Tow Law is 54.748795° N.

Ashington will take some beating.

It is a shame his career has lost its way. I hope he can bounce back.

I think he chose to leave to be closer to home, work and family.

Meanwhile Chester lost 0-4 in the cup at home against Maersk (a shipping company?! ;)) who had ten men for last 15 mins. Ouch

Topsy and Tim won't be there much longer.

You've got to hand it to them; that is a brilliant effort for what will be a wet Tuesday evening.

Yup. Hope they are as well behaved as Notts and they go home with nil point.
