A bit of perspective ...
« on: September 21, 2007, 11:38:38 AM »

I feel crap at the moment with the way things are going on the field ... and here on the forum too.
That's not to say we've all got a right to speak our mind, I just wish the minority of critics would join the rest of those on here with constructive remarks (critical or otherwise).
If we don't, it will begin to resemble PortChat!

Whenever I feel as bad as this, I think back to some of the REAL lows I've had as an Alty fan ...

Playing a friendly at home against Morecambe of the Lancashire Combination before the kick off of the NPL, feeling Alty were great before the game and watching us  get banjoed 4-0

Trying to get my (then) girlfriend interested and spending every penny I had training it to Garston (to see us play South Liverpool) via Warrington (it seemed to take ages) on the crap trains of the day only to watch us get annihilated 6-0

Getting beaten by Phwelli (or however it's spelt) and even General Chemicals



Compared to that being in the BSP is great.

There's a hell of a long way to go this season and a couple of wins - or even a win and a couple of draws - in the next few games will make a heck of a difference.

I know you all feel crap just like I do myself but try to stay positive and keep the faith.

Got to admit that I had a relapse a couple of weeks ago for an evening (cadged a couple in the pub after another one of our depressing defeats!) but have been back on track since then!

It's certainly not easy being an Alty fan is it?

PS: Thanks for the Goodwin - have one yourself - we need all the positive karma we can get on here.  ::) ;)
