It struck me on Saturday. Gone are the days of John Rogers or Kenny McKenna who were lethal in the air.
Defenders score the odd goal from corners or free kicks but our strikers very rarely seem to. It isn't a massive problem when we have such talented forwards with the ball at their feet but it would be good to have another weapon in our arsenal. 
The club seem to have noticed this as well, our corners against Barnet were low ones that bounced before reaching the penalty area, one of which we converted of course.
Not a major concern, but worth noting I would say.

Those two and Jeff Johnson were all great in the air,unlike Swindells and Worth from a different era ! The brilliant goal by JR at Wycombe in the 1982 Trophy semi springs to mind .
 I think Kyle Perry was our most up to date forward to have success 'up above'.
 Barnet, with their tall strike force, obviously have success with their Luftwaffe tactics, they are very good at it.  Give me our style of play any day of the week.

Precious and got to add unlikely point against an ariel BOMBardment  ! Full marks for digging it out and fighting to the finish. Huge shout out to the Alty faithful who made the journey , shouted themselves hoarse and some of those outfits were top drawer too 👏

Looking forward to (hopefully) an explosive display on TNT today.

Ethan, Isaac and Chris are the main cogs in our wheel and the ultimate reason we are where we are. I agree wholeheartedly about Fylde who could well have taken all six points off us . The Spireites apart the league is harder to predict than at any other time , we are going great guns and the confidence within the team growing by the game . We the fans share that confidence now and for the first time in over thirty years we can properly sense something very real and special here .

All speculation at the moment.... unless someone knows otherwise ! , did he go or was he pushed ?  Interested to see if or when we search for a replacement.
