I was on the Chequers end when this happened...........it's the worst thing I've ever seen in football and still think it was a red card and a penalty for a reckless late challenge.

I am guessing, but won't a judge take the view that an injury (serious or otherwise) is a genuine hazard of playing certain sports ? There are currently several young men in the county who are confined to wheelchairs after serious neck injuries playing rugby.
Surely the only way to win a case like this is if it can be proved beyond reasonable doubt that it was deliberate and the intention was to cause serious harm i.e something along the lines of GBH ?

I am sure he will get his chance and want to prove to us his worth...............a goal at Weymouth last April would have done nicely and maybe away at Farsley in Nov.
It's yet another option and about having the right balance of 'workers, providers and finishers' in a committed to the cause squad.

also lets just look at it for the last 4 seasons alti have finished in a relegation place but managed to stay up due to other reasons, so they are not an attractive option and as a close friend of Liams i can also tell you that Alti offered him more than droylsden on a weekly wage so the fact you believe this is for money has no substance.

you talk about people being a few sarnies short of a picnic only time will tell on where is decision will take him but that is his decision to make and you should not judge him on his decision afterall he doesnt slate you for supporting alti...

oh and Hash you should be careful who you call a cock after all they may know more about you than you know about them...so you no longer live on hilcroft rd do you not...haha

Right Roman.................time to cut the cr*p and let's all be honest with each other :-

Your close friend has the right to play for whoever he wants and I think it is fair to say that this 'thread' originally started as a result of us Altrincham supporters being dissappointed to lose out on the services of Liam.

Whether or not Droylsden is a 'better' team than Altrincham is of course subjective. I personally believe Altrincham is currently a better team; they play in a higher division and the last two meetings between the side resulted in 2 deserved wins for Altrincham.

By the way they have not finished in the relegation places 4 seasons running either

You mention money not being the incentive. You also mention his wages would be more at Altrincham than Droylsden. Can you ask if any 'signing on' fees were involved, and if any, was there a big or a small difference, or has Liam joined Droylsden only because he is free to leave to join a league club and wants to play for a winning team (at the highest level).

Can someone at the club confirm whether this is true or not???

It's not really the clubs place to do this is it...........I dont' think the club has ever said they have officially signed him or attempted to sign him...I might be wrong, but everything I have seen on the official site so far has been media comments from the Northwich Guardian and the NL Paper etc.
The only thing the club can do, is wait until 'others' claim to have signed him before they comment

Has Chris Senior left or is he staying?

I saw he was putting himself up for grabs a few weeks ago

I presume he is a bit fed up of not having what he may think is a fair crack of the whip

He is either taken off or used as sub more often than other players

He is threatening in the final third though more than some others

What do you mean........"he was putting himself up for grabs", who has he trained with, contacted etc ?

I reckon Chris will have a good season for us, potentially playing on the right switching in and out with Denham............being taken off after 75 mins is often inevitable when you consider how much he runs in a game

Interesting appointment at Cambridge United : Southport's Gary Brabin gets the job.

A very surprising appointment, but a gamble that may pay off...........would do people think?

Thanks JTH.............my memory lets me down........it must have felt like a loss though at the time !

England are no great shakes so I won't gloat, but I have never understood why Scotland did not achieve much much more in days gone by. Just quickly thinking of some of great players you have had makes me wonder.......Dalglish, Hansen, Wark, Gemmill, Jordan, McQueen, Bremner, Sourpuss, Macaroni, Buchan, McClintock etc.........all the good teams in the 70s were built around jocks
