Title: Appeal
Post by: John Edwards on September 17, 2020, 07:12:58 PM: There's an urgent appeal on the club's official website now, if anyone can help with it.

Or Sandbach Community Football Centre, where Macc used to train?

What's Gigg Lane looking like nowadays?

I assume Sale Rugby have said no to using their facilities??

Does Sale / Altrincham Grammar still have a 3G pitch??

Platt lane @ MMU may also fit the requirements?

I'm sure you've seen the FA list of pitches -

Yep, the facilities are very good. The pitch isn't the best quality but I'm sure it would be more than enough for the lads over the winter (it's fine in PE and we've used it in all conditions you can imagine - gets a bit slippy sometimes though!)

Just some recommendations for the club to try if haven't already:

The Grammar at Alty Boys
BTH all-weather pitch
Partington Sports Village

If not, this would be the perfect opportunity for the premier league and FA to show they really do care about the game at the lower levels and for United or City give the club a hand.

A lot of kids' teams train there during winter and whenever I take my son there the place is rammed.

Post by: JD on September 18, 2020, 02:00:32 PM: There's a recently relaid artificial pitch where I live...but no changing facilities and it is on an island off the Scottish coast...and if you don't get the 8.30 ferry to Largs you're stuck!

But apart from that...!
