Glad you responded in the way you did Mark
I was so angry, and upset with such a post.
Waiting for this non Alty fan to respond.

[Bath Alty]

and another vote for the sensible majority over the outrageous initial post.  well said Ecky.

[GB Alty]

Agree with Ecky, things are far from perfect on the playing front. And most know my thoughts on that.

But the Rowleys are good people doing the best they can for the club, we should not forget that ever. However frustrating it may be that we can't always compete financially at this level.

As for the Community Hall, its a great asset to the club. I got married there, and was so proud to be able to do so

[Toff Apple]

Well at least the post brought us all together in agreement

[ASMO]

Totally agree Ecky , we have a great club with a big heart , hopefully we can continue to compete at this level for many years to come.

Great response. Hopefully we'll get an equally passionate response at Grimsby.

Onwards and upwards.

There is one thing for everyone to concentrate on and that is staying in this league.

If the worst happens we will be well placed to come back up...we will be a top 5 'FCN' side

The bar community hall is magnificent, the kids around alty in replica kits is a legacy for this board which will last for years.

Onwards and upwards

Take a look at Runcorn, northwich, scarboro, boston and be grateful.

Great response Ecky, all is not perfect but we have a great club in my opinion.

It's really easy to highlight the negatives and the huge investment that is still needed in the ground

Its really hard to find an investor who wants to put the money in with no guarenteed return or no hidden agenda

Sadly sheiks don't grow on trees

In fact the hall is the single biggest investment we have seen for decades and we are still trying to pay the last of it to the best of my knowledge

This is a friendly warm club who welcome ideas and investment

We all want a better ground no doubt .. but at what cost ?

We do however have to stay up and should take some calculated risk to do so

We have been bitterly unlucky with injuries alongside poor recruitment in the summer

One last thing. . Great post ecky

I'm not entirely sure how you come to that conclusion, apart from blind faith and positive thinking.

While Nuneaton are doing OK this season, it's with an entirely revamped side, and I don't see Telford and Alfreton pulling up any trees. Or Tamworth, or Hyde, or Stockport County. In fact, the only recently relegated teams to have returned are Barrow (bankrolled and revamped) and Telford (hmmm).

Who is this 47 year old from Sale??
Still no response.
What a complete xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Really. Yet it is alright for you to slag off other fans, myself included.

on the injuries we were very lucky last season that maybe why we were 17th and now lower I'm sure the budget is higher than in the blue square north so I find it hard to believe are best players all played in the blue square north

[Hamilton]

Great post Ecky! I couldn't find the words you did.

[Mick]

I read this post this morning on my phone whilst at work.............flabbergasted to say the least. I just assumed it was the rantings of a very drunken, misinformed bitter and angry man. I did not think it deserved a reply but Ecky has obviously spent a lot of time responding on everyone else's behalf

Yes; mistakes are being made, yes we are in some trouble football-wise, yes there have been some strange decisions made with tactics and team selections, yes questions over budgets and money etc etc etc......but I think we are all 'on the same page' regarding the Sports Hall and the efforts of the Volunteers and the Board and their families
