Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Hereford v Alty Highlights
« on: March 02, 2020, 06:57:57 PM »
Sorry I wasn’t clear. I did not mean a formal warning (obviously!) I meant I’d be warning him is place in the starting XI was at risk if he keeps taking a breather when he should be defending. The team’s togetherness is a big part of why it works and he’s putting that at risk if he continues his mercurial talent attitude. It was not just a lack of determination or fitness but a visible display of “I can’t be arsed to even walk in the right direction”.
It’s no good being worth a goal a game at one end if you cost us half a dozen chances at the other. Admittedly Hereford weren’t good enough to take advantage but the better teams will be

Great goal but Durrell's defending at 1:35 was sadly well below the effort that has typified this team. Two or three times as that attack built up he just stopped and watched while he fiddled with his socks. He's the left midfielder and the right back is completely free and it wasn't the only time. I know he's scoring goals and that's great, but he needs to adapt his attitude to that of the rest of team. Arguing with Hampson and telling what he should have been doing isn't smart either, you're the new guy and you aren't in any position to arguing with how others defend!
I'd still pick him at the moment but he'd be on a warning

I think that’s the first time I have seen a man sent off for a challenge that didn’t even cause the opponent to loose his footing. Hancock last year didn’t initiate contact with the player but at least he fell over.!

Coburn
Densmore
Young
Hannigan
White (I've not really been convinced by any of our left backs to the same extent as other positions)
Clee
Moult
Kearney
Watmore
Hulme
Reeves
Subs
Drench (I know he hasn't played enough games to justify this but I'd still pick him over TT when fit and the rest have never convinced)
Havern
richman
Little (pre-2010 vintage would replace Reeves)
JJ (just so I've got cover on both wings and can drop Nicky back to cover LB - I might be over thinking this!)

to be fair with ten minutes left they were only 1 up, admittedly they had been 3 up five minutes earlier!
I wonder if Pompey will take as many to Fleetwood as we took to theirs?

Also imagine the disappointment tonight if we had won, or even got a replay. Hoping for Anfield or Old Trafford and getting Fleetwood - we'd have been gutted

4 places above them in the league and a home gate of 3,811 on a Saturday vs Tranmere.
So glad we aren't missing out on another great day out

I agree, I don't get to many games living down south but that is the best game I've seen williams play for us by a million miles, I thought he was brilliant today

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: FA Trophy Draw
« on: November 25, 2019, 10:32:28 PM »Not least because to get such a sequence you have to keep winning away from home!1 in 256 is correct. There is a 1 in 2 chance of each draw being away and so the chances of 8 consecutive draws being away is 1 in 2^8=256
True. Probability of 8 consecutive homes or 8 consecutive aways is 1:256.......about as simple as probability gets.
Becomes more complicated when calculating combinations of H&A because there are more ways of achieving the same result (as Alty TV points out)
Netherless and maths aside, so many draws away must be rare

Odds of the next one are 50:50. We are not “due” a home draw in that sense. The odds of 7 always then a home one are exactly the same as 8 away
We’ve already had 7 away draws:
Chester, Halesowen, Southport, York twice, Portsmouth and now farsley

With the greatest respect that is not as easy as you make it sound - clear diction is not the number one priority of the singers. Clearly A-O-Alty, Alty-A-O is not challenging, but some of the newer ones can be tricky to get the slightly faster sections. The Jordan Hulme song for example you can pick up the have a dink bit but it took me several matches to get all of it
