Agree with Ecky and RS.

They are the best in the league and we are not far away from them. Great following today, well done to all that could make it. Pity they did not allow for us all to get in. Liked the were not Vauxhall Motors chant.


Did people actually not get in??

Someone on their forum said he asked a steward, who told him we had 263 there today.
I'd say between 350 and 400

First half passed me by, but I think we probably sat too deep. Second half we tried to get at them and had Reeves (who seems to have lost some sharpness over the last few weeks) been able to get on the end of Lawrie's cross to equalise, I reckon we would have left with at least a point.

A few other random things :-
At 2.50pm I think I got the last seat in 'our end'
No Chester nobbers today
Glad their fans were reminded that "City" no longer exist.
Forty minute walk back to the pub opposite the station - bloody freezing. Good real ale though and all food half price today.
£16 return rail fare for two from Navvy Road - not bad that.  
Really hope we are playing them next season.

You omit to detail your near failure to return to your seat at one juncture though...!

Ah yes, having hopped over the barrier into the 'Chester seats' to go to the toilets by what appeared to be the quickest and most sensible route, the steward would not then let me back into the Alty 'end' !

Appalling that, with a club the calibre of Chester's and a ground of such size, that they couldn't give a local team more space on a big bank holiday fixture.

The only reason I can think of is stewarding, in which case did they communicate with anyone at Moss Lane?

To me they seem like a club who have very little respect for the opponents and if we needed to win there to win leauge and took a thousand they wouldev made the same mistake
