Alty 1 Brackley 1

I think it will take Reeves a good four games to get into his old stride and we'll labour a bit until he does.

Brackley will be very solid and well organised without being spectacular and seem to be one of these "whats the point in pouring money in?" clubs with a big budget.  

I expect some derision that we have failed to beat a" pub side with no fans" but it will seem like a decent point as the season goes on.

Attendance 701 (few on hols and 35 fans in bobble hats from them)

Alty 1-1. Reeves 87th min pen get an desrved point agianst an experienced Brackley team.

Attn - 820 (23 in away end)

This , but not a pen

Agreeing with Ecky's point on Reevesy's fitness, if we get an 87th. minute pen he may already have been subbed. Don't know who'd take it, but I don 't trust Densmore from the spot !

[RageAgainstTheFirstTeam]

I'd be over the moon with a solid 2-0 or something. Doughty used to take our pens, by the way.

Don't recall seeing him take one - and he too could be out of the game by that time (assuming he starts). Seen Densmore take two, and one was saved, the other bobbled in.

Matt used to be a regular penalty taker for us, I don't actually recall him missing one, I always remember the last kick of the game winner against Gateshead that he coolly tucked away

Back with a bang... 2-0 win! (Reeves, Lawrie)

Doughty had a penalty saved in a 2-1 win at Hayes & Yeading in August 2009......just about a month prior to that dramatic last minute home victory over Gateshead.

And even that wasn't a bad penalty. He's definitely one of our better takers from recent years, alongside Aspinall and well ahead of Little or Densmore or even Reeves, I'd say.

Colin Little's goal in that Hayes game was IMMENSE!

[whopper]

If clees left back we wont win, oh by the way text speak is now part of the gcse syllabus so all the grammer nazis may well just roll over and die 

[Altyroo]

Id be happy with  a 1-0 win.

[markecky]

Id be happy with  a 1-0 win.

Given our opening day record I would be ecstatic!

[Bazbatteria]

Speaking of Colin Little wonder goals, was the Woking away match a few seasons ago the last time we won our opening fixture?

Indeed it was.

A 2-1 win on the opening day of the 2008/09 season.

The last time that we recorded a victory at Moss Lane on the opening day of the league season was Saturday, 12th August 2006 via a 2-1 win against Stevenage Borough.

See the Robins Review for the Brackley Town game on Saturday for an article on Alty's opening day fixtures over the years....!

And you'd still fail that course.....!

LOL; ROFL etc......
