Better get my face mask out then, I don't want my face to be video when I force Ballers to give me a piggy back to the bar at half-time!

 

Sadly due to bloody xmas it is another game I wont be able to attend...

Please feel free to leave Brodie and Gash at Kit Kat Crescent for this one
 

Gash is out of the side at the moment, he is slowly returning from injury.

Brodie has just beaten the club record for the earliest date in a season to reach 20 goals and he is certainly the man to look out for at the moment. He tends to annoy opposition supporters though!!

But on this one it is where it has been edited http://www.youtube.com/user/shawma1us#p/a/u/2/YCK-vsxfJOU
and the Spieght hand is not in question.

I don't understand why it has been edited in that way and there is no way that will be the clip that the FA looked at.

They will have watched the proper match DVD in clearer quality, unedited.

The FA seem to have manufactured a situation whereby the author of the video is effectively the person who decides what will or will not be reported, and if this person is remotely connected to either of the two teams then how can this be impartial.

As someone who films matches in the same way and uploads the highlights online, let me comment on this.

For any Blue Square league match it is in the rules that full length copies of the match tape (usually a DVD) have to be provided (within 48 hours) to both clubs and to the referee's assessor. It has been known for the referee's assessor not to bother with his copy when the game has passed off without incident. It is also quite usual to receive a phone call from the club secretary asking for clarification of any specific incident in order to decide whether or not to launch and appeal - which now has to be done pretty much immediately due to new rules enforced. Likewise the away club can use the footage supplied by the home club to appeal too.

The match between Mansfield and Alty is an anomaly because, as far as I am aware, it is not in the rules of this stage of the competition that you must provide the away club with a copy of the game. Usually it is good manners to do so however. Likewise in the FA Trophy - in fact when York played Torquay United in the semi-final, Torquay refused to submit a video copy of the 1st leg to York so that York could use it in training for the 2nd leg. So you could say that while it might be seen as poor form by Mansfield they have not broken any rules.

The fact that the footage is on YouTube is irrelevant if it is from the Official tape, as it will be the official tape used by the FA to make any judgements regarding suspensions and other punishments.

Hello old timers,

Long time no see.

I am planning to hop on the train tomorrow seeing as York don't have a game, to see one of our "play-off rivals" (Altrincham)!

No doubt I shall be heading to the Porterhouse to start with, if you fancy joining me I should hopefully be there for about 12.

Hughesy, Ballers, WaryGarrington - I expect you to be there you cheeky chimps.

Cheers,

UKP

Hello there,

First question is - where are we having our pre-season piss up this year after last year's day out to Staly Vegas?

Second question is - is MySquare running again this year?

I suggest to deal with the first question the only option for me, looking at your fixtures and ours, might be a little session at Abbey Hey on 11th July. Will you be putting a proper team out and will anyone be going?

Phil,

The rule at Alty is that you are given 15 minutes and then the pop side make a decicison that sticks.

Unless you are a winger.  If you impress in your first game you should start every other until you leave 

Fair enough, I'll expect a text from Hughesy at 3.15pm then!!

 

Altrincham 1 York 1

Would settle for a point tonight.
