Solihull Match Thread

No idea what changes will be made or what system we'll play.

Think Donawa should start as we look a lot more threatening when he does.

Sithole surly will be benched but after that I've no idea

Linney in from the start - let's get him sharp ASAP - can always withdraw him on the hour, let's start doing things the other way round now.

We played Josh Lundstram at right back to great effect against Solihull last season - let's start on the front foot against a Solihull side that have suffered back-to-back defeats like us.

Things definitely need freshening up, so hopefully the management see Justin Donawa as ready to go straight in - he's another one that can always be withdrawn after an hour if needed.

Got a sneaky feeling James Jones and Roscoe will be in. Not sure how I feel about that.
Probably back three with Cooper missing out. Not sure how I feel about that either.
Kosylo and Donowa possibly?
Linney definitely.




PS. The above is what I think might happen rather than my personal preferences.
As long as we win, I don't care

It will be a draw and probably my fault.  Sad to say I've seen one win (Southend), three draws and two losses this season.

No Baines at all and Cooper on the bench,
A bit worrying

Didn’t make it today as I have a stinking cold.

I had Radio Alty on which is a quite frustrating way to listen to the games.

It needs sorting out as it is a poor version of what we used to have.

Nothing to worry about at all!

Brilliant performance from 1-11, the new lad Dackers was brilliant for the first half hour (faded a little afterwards), Justin Amaluzor was unplayable, wonderful finish from Alex Newby and all the forwards (Regan especially) getting on the scoresheet. What's not to love?

A special mention to Isaac Marriott who was at his imperious best this afternoon, and what a worldie of a ball from Elliott Osborne for Justin's second.

What a way to bounce back after the last couple of games.

Great performance today and Solihull are no mugs. It looked like we'd been told to shoot at every opportunity. Dackers made a good debut, Justin looked a different player to the one we saw on Tuesday. Lots of standout performances around the team but I particularly thought Eddy Jones was immense. Their number 2 Clarke had a game to forget, made to look silly by Justin, Regan and CCC more than once.

If previous form this season is to be repeated that is the first of five league wins on the bounce.

I am still holding the optimism that I have carried since the early days of this season and as each piece of Parky's jigsaw slots into place I am getting more and more excited.  I have already been checking out prices of hotels within a reasonable distance of Wembley for the Play-off and Trophy finals.

We will appear in at least one Wembley final in 2024.  I feel sure of it. Last year was the equivalent of our 1976/77 team that came so close to reaching the Trophy final and so that makes this one the 1977/78 doppleganger.  I have to admit that we are unlikely to win the league title but we have shown ourselves to be masters of winning play-offs and usually by the hardest way.  A promotion to EFL2 and FA Trophy double is entirely within reach of this squad.

We might be needing a shop in the Stamford Quarter to sell all the Wembley souvenirs.

That was a top performance from all 11.
Great tempo from the off.
Well done boys.

A weird game. It seemed like the very presence of Dackers was enough to distract the Moors, allowing the freedom of Altrincham to all our other forwards.

All the usual fabulous performances (which we have come to expect) but a huge shout out to the much maligned James Jones who superbly marshalled their number 9 throughout.

We were good today and more importantly...we are back.

Even though I was at the game, I can't wait for the Alty TV footage so that I can appreciate fully the sheer quality of our goals this afternoon.
