Poll: where will Altrincham finish
« on: December 27, 2022, 11:10:35 PM »

Right, we are top half for the start of the new year, a tremendous achievement by the players and staff (and supporters!), and I thought it would be interesting to see where people currently see us finishing - and maybe compare it with the early season poll. Personally I think that 8th to 11th, which would represent our best finish since Maunders pulled out, is now a realistic target, but that we may just fall short. Whilst we won't suffer again the large scale changes we saw in the close season, we will probably lose one or two players, and there are some strong teams in the league. A reminder - in the first poll on where we would finish, nobody predicted a top half finish. That number again - 0.

More arsed about keeping Colclough and extending CCC.

Lose those two and it is a big big problem, especially when we stil need a right winger.

I am feeling nervous.

Quite, that's why we'll miss out on 8th to 11th. However, I am confident that we will still be able to bring in people who, combined with the players that remain, will be good enough to see us finish 12th to 15th.

No point voting until we know what's happening in the Window.

Does anyone know if you can actually sign and advertise a signing before the 1st January?

The amount of air time our players are now getting across fan forums and social media - Marriott and Lundstram included - is starting to make me really nervous.

If we escape January with the same team (which of course means loan extensions) we'll have done well. Add a proper striker and a right winger, and we'll have performed bloody miracles.

That's the christmas miracle I'm hoping for too!

If we lose CCC and Ryan then I worry for us, the loss of Elliot was a concern, I was hoping we might hang onto him for another loan spell.

I’m afraid this is what happens when we have a small budget, we are unable to entice the like of Elliot etc to sign for us.

I know it's a different level but Liverpool have just done that.
