Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Chesterfield Match Thread
« on: January 17, 2024, 04:34:03 PM »
Just seen the Chesterfield highlights and Linney was ONSIDE when he scored see video 1.15 onwards. When Jones shot Regan was ONSIDE played on by Grimes.

The replay isnt shown on the Alty TV away shorts but on their video you can see he was on.

« on: August 27, 2023, 12:59:17 PM »I am relieved to read of plans for a sterile area after the nonsense at the Notts County game last season. Good to see that lessons have been learnt.
As for theawayChequers end, I would favour putting up a (small?) seated stand in the area near the Chequers End turnstiles and leaving the family stand free for home supporters in matches where segregation may be used.
That's a very good idea 💡
It is and has been looked at but it doesnt fit or work for various reasons.

« on: August 25, 2023, 06:22:11 PM »Imho (and I'm sure many on here would agree) the ideal solution would be to segregate at the scoreboard corner and stick a roof behind the goal. It surely wouldn't be too expensive. It is, after all, our ground!
Oh if it was that simple

« on: August 09, 2023, 06:22:51 PM »I did a little digging on the only named investor on the article, Shalni Arora, and her husband is the billionaire ex CEO of B&M bargains. Would be nice if she could convince him to buy the clubHavent you learnt anything,.. owners only work when they are interested,. ask Southend and plenty of others.
Keeping control of the club with a range of people who care about it without one person in control is by far the safest approach.
This is very good news.

What do people think?

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Whose for the drop?
« on: June 28, 2023, 01:59:56 PM »Its always hard to predict who will do what at this time of year.
My candidates most likely to be down there would be;
Oxford, Kiddy, Maidenhead, Rochdale
Not sure about Fylde or Ebbsfleet or Southend.
If we dont gel quickly I could see us flirting as well, but expect Wealdstone, Dorking and Hartlepool to do better than some think.
We will know more in a few weeks !
Think Dorking will get found out; and it'll test the managers experience (or lack of it) to get them out of that rut. Whilst they may surprise the new comers, I would expect most club to understand how to beat them (us really included). That away game was a shambles.
You may be right about Dorking,.. but its wishful thinking as I really like him ! And they did improve a lot backend of last season.

If Dan is rumoured to be training up here then it does suggest he may be returning to somewhere in the NW (unless his free house in Southend no longer in use) ?
A fit and motivated Dan would be good, but if his wage demands are much higher and he's not the same player,.. then I trust Parky to call it right if he was an option.

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Chequers Scoreboard
« on: March 27, 2023, 04:14:33 PM »I really hope so because the former has always been a reminder to me of how short-sighted our sale of the Red Robin Social Club and the adjoining land was in the early 1970s.Sorry to correct you but,.... AFC have never owned the ground or the red robin club. AFC had a lease on the ground from TMBC and shared a lease on the car park.
When Alty were in major financial trouble in around 2000, the club surrendered the lease (which by then was getting quite short) of the shared use of car park for 250K which effectively (together with great work by Geoff Goodwin and board) removed the clubs debt.
Far-sighted in retrospect actually.
