Absolutely huge game this on Tuesday it could really give us some daylight playoffs wise and see us up to fourth spot. Midweek crowds have been poor the season despite is not having many Tuesday games at home. Let’s try and have a decent turnout on Tuesday it really helps the players
-
I feel this will be a tougher test. Need to be at them from the off.
Piggott has done very well but Hulme back in.
Drench for TT.

Drench still Injured.
I don't think Hulme did enough to warrant a start over Piggott.

Fair enough. Just class to have quality on the bench.
PP and Neil have done an absolute unreal job. They now have options for plan B's with the likes of Dolan, Chadwick and I have even like that he has brought Richman on for Jake in later games. Moult was very good yesterday but it gives us legs when teams are tiring.
I think when we are winning by a margin that Moult sub should always be done.
-
Hulme or Piggot is the only decision to be made. You can make strong cases for both.
Alty 2-0 Blythe. Hannigan Hancock
-
Yet another crucial match on Tues. Blyth have played quite a few of the form teams just lately so they will be battle hardened and seem to play well against us.
That said, we are hitting form at the right time of the season. Keep the belief and play to our potential and I can see three more point come 9-30 pm Tues night.
Alty 3-1 Blyth.
Att 787
I plan to be there. with my son and Grandson.
Cmon Alty......

You can, but it's debatable whether you should. I'd leave well alone. Consider the psychological effect on the opposition when a player of Jordan Hulme's stature at this level appears on the touchline raring to go. If that IS the scenario, we need to start his song before he enters the field of play.
-
Other interesting point here, is if we can get a result against Blyth, Kdderminster have to go to Chorley on Saturday then play Spennymoor and then are away at Brackley, a pretty tough few weeks.
-
Barring any injuries or fatigue I guess the starting lineup will be as Saturday past. With a strong bench.
Looking forward to this.
-
The postponement of this game from early Jan has definitely worked out well for us. We are beginning to re-discover our pre-Christmas form whilst Blyth on the other hand have only one once in the league in 2019. I expect us to go out and put on a performance and win well-setting us up nicely for a trip to a revitalised York outfit on Saturday.
-
Will be much tougher than people think this one. Would take a narrow win all day long. I imagine the team will be the same following two massive wins.

Agreed, this will be a tough game.
We need to get at them and have the intensity of Saturday.
-
Any danger of tomorrow night's game being called off? Weather is pretty crap here is Warrington, not too far away
-
only a little rain forecast in the day, and some from about 8pm onwards. today's downpours may mean they don't need the sprinklers on tomorrow night.
-
Dry bright and breezy in Altrincham this morning

no drench wynne on the bench

Drench hurt his knee in training and they are taking their time getting him back.
-
It went how I thought it was going to go. Blyth were fit and up in our faces.
No complaints with the draw.
I have no idea why we swapped Ceesay and JJ when Ceesay was having joy on the left and even though he looked tired I would have kept him on because they had no idea how to defend against him.
I would have brought Harrop or Dolan on for Hancock who was off the pace tonight. I mentioned it against Spennymoor but I felt we looked tired again tonight.
Hannigan was MOTM with Cessay a close second IMO.
York will be tough but we seem to play better away.
I would play Densmore and White on Saturday.
-
Controversy with their equaliser, didn't look like a back pass, but see what Alty TV shows. Didn't think either of their two back passes, some Alty fans were shouting for free kicks, were to be fair. Overall after looking like we were going to blow them away in the first 20 mins, I thought Blyth in the end probably deserved a draw, seemed more organised as the game went on, without creating much and we seemed to run out of steam.
-
Only listened to the second half on RR but sounds like 1-1 was a fair reflection. Unfortunately you do have to say with some of the games coming up that has to be regarded as 2 points dropped. Our insurance policy is that two of our last three opponents for me are probably going to get relegated but from now until the Nuneaton game in mid-April virtually every opponent is a top half and in-form team.
I look forward to going to York on Saturday and often this team does play better away, another big game.
-
Fair result, even though their goal looked a shocking decision. Didn't create enough to take all 3 points.
Hancock was no where as influencing as he was on Saturday, which was the difference. No more Tuesday night games please
Hannigan was my mom.
Disappointing evening all told
-
Have to say think 2 points dropped, there goal came from what was not a back pass in my opinion, they created little else there keeper was the busier of the two and made three top quality saves I thought.
We did tire and thought Hulme added little when he came on. Frustrating...
-
I'm sorry but we have to be more adventurous at home if we want to get out of this league.
JJ needs to have more support he had good runs which came to nothing due to lack of an outlet to pass to.
Taking The Pig off for Jordon puzzled me, both of them should have played up top second half.
There were times when we had a back five in the second half. Blyth weren't that good to merit a five.
Not an enjoyable watch for me.
Hannigan MotM closely followed by JJ
Have got my name on the bus for York Saturday.

Brief highlights now on the feed on our official site. Certainly not a backpass from Moult. Normally it has to be absolutely blatant for referees to give a free kick for that sort of thing, so we were really unlucky there. Brilliant save from Thompson to claw the ball over the bar.
-
To be honest I think the referee was within his rights to give that backpass the moment Thompson picked it up. Needed to go into Row Z.
My problem was with the inconsistencies shown later in the game, especially a similar incident in the second half which I'm hoping is part of the full Alty TV package. You've got to give them all.

Agree with above. I am not saying it was a back pass but I can see how it was given. Any doubt then Thompson should have laced that ball up field. Not solely blaming Thompson because it was a close call,but that sort of decision making is why we need the calmness and experience of Drench. He best hurry up back as all these games are now vital.
-
Of course it wasn’t a back pass but I also can see why it was given, because of the inept standard of referring that infects our level of football. Lessons learned by supporters over many years - don’t give these nitwits the opportunity to make themselves the centre of attention. Row Z is where that should of gone - or the golf course.
-
Watching the brief highlights back (how annoying/pointless are those adverts in the middle??) I can see why the ref penalised the back pass but others wouldn't have. Its the inconsistency of not giving us the same at the other end a short while later that's frustrating.
I thought both teams did well in very difficult conditions and a draw was a fair result.
Great save from TT in the 2nd half.
Josh Hancock wasn't at his best last night and when he plays well, the team invariably does - or is it the other way around?
We can't win handsomely every game and they are a decent side so not too disappointed.
-
The people hailing drench as the answer to all our problems seem to have forgotten his appalling clearance that should have seen fcum equalise....given the amount of kamikaze sliced backpasses Thomson deals with I'm sure drench will struggle with the 100% accuracy some fans expect....also an absolutely superb save from Thomson stopped us losing 2-1 last night....I accept we look a bit calmer overall with drench in the sticks
We played well last night and it is as much our outfield performances that dictate why we have conceded 1 in 3 as opposed to 4 in the last 3 with drench in goals!!
cant win em all 4-0 and 6-0 and we are still a work in progress..hard decisions need to be made whatever the result of the play offs for us...

Agreed. Ref was a numpty but so was TT for picking up the ball. Sadly, if players can be inconsistent at this level, we shouldn’t expect any more of the refs.
-
the endless back passing puts the keeper under too much pressure. players were doing it last night just to avoid making a decision themselves.
