If the "light shower" that's been going on for the last couple of hours doesn't let up soon we could be looking at a postponement.

« on: September 23, 2019, 02:17:32 PM »On paper, it's OK, but let's get past Chester first! Must admit, I had to check where it was. Very relieved that we'll be wearing red again, should we get through!It's only two seasons since we were in the same league - we went up, they've gone down.

Striker or winger. PP reckons he can "give us something different". Interesting signing. West Brom must have seen something to arouse their interest.

« on: September 22, 2019, 08:46:47 PM »It's a cup match, so it'll be tight. Chester defend deep but will depend on our cock ups to score. 2 1It'll be as tight as a duck's derriere, and extra time could be needed. In which case we have to win it before the dreaded penalties come into it.

His point is still valid regarding the Kiddy game.
And Boston.....and Southport.

It’s an away game up the road so let’s be having you. How many of the 1300 at Chorley are coming along on Saturday. Dust yourselves now and let’s get there in large numbers, they’ll need us behind them from the off.
Count me out. I'm not risking getting as angry again as I was on Saturday, and I can't see us getting anything. Yes, we drew there early doors, but their star striker wasn't playing - and advertised his well-being with a hat trick at Telford last week.

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: New away kit?
« on: September 18, 2019, 09:35:34 AM »I voted for it when given the chance and I still like it now. Fair enough if some people don't like it, it's a simple matter of taste at the end of the day. I have to say, though, if we were in the top 5 and playing better I don't think we would be having long threads about people disliking a kit. I don't give a sh*t what they wear as long as the players start performing better on the pitch.If there had been a "none of the above" option, I'd definitely have voted for it. The purple was the best away kit we've ever had in my opinion.
I have to say that I found it difficult to pick out JJ on the far side of the pitch on Saturday, and also to distinguish his movement accurately. There's definitely an argument against this kit, but, as others have said, the problems appear to run far deeper than that.

From there you may get an inspirational moment, be it a win in a 50/50 from Moult or an individual effort from Hulme that we can all feed off of. Too many of them went hiding unfortunately, which simply wouldn't happen at home. We've had so many fantastic days out away from Moss Lane over the past two seasons but they are quickly becoming very expensive chores.
I must say I'm surprised the substitutions of Hancock and Hulme haven't been mentioned on here. Taking your biggest goal threats off when two goals down looked like a bit of an authority stamping exercise from Phil in my view, as neither appeared to be injured.
Dreading Chester.
Hancock was having a really poor game. I would have hooked him earlier to be honest. I always feel that if he plays well, then we play well. The reverse seemed to be true on Saturday.

The referee was no worse than 98% of those we've had this season. Butterfield should have had a second yellow for sure. But if we'd had the best referee in the world, we'd still have lost, because we were simply dreadful.
Take the time to read John Laidlar's match report - as usual, he is 100% correct.

« on: September 14, 2019, 08:57:18 PM »I think the sale of Branston leaves us a player short. We usually operate on a one-in, one-out basis, so I'd expect to see a new midfielder arrive shortly. We don't appear to have anyone on the bench who can come on and change a game. With the best will in the world, neither Peers nor Harrop are going to do this.
Forgot to say, ditch that kit - it's poo.
The kit is a crime against humanity, and I wouldn't be seen dead in a ditch wearing that shirt. But the team were beyond awful this afternoon, and for the third time this season I was angered by their performance away from home. I will not be travelling again until things improve considerably.
