See they had  4-4 thriller on wednesday.

            Gould

Banks.  Cooper.  Baines.  Jones

     Marriott.   Osbourne

  Newby.   Con-Clarke.  Amaluzor

           Linney

Alty 3-1 Eastleigh (Linney, Con-Clarke x2)

Only thing that can scupper is the pitch

[Saughall Robin]

Possible banana 🍌 skin for a couple of reasons this weekend. A win would really set us up. Think we might just edge it but we really need to take our chances.
I'm going for an odd goal victory.

[Sarf London Alty]

To regain our momentum after all the PP it’s a must win for me. We should have got something down there & need to put that right. Same team as in the first post I reckon. Eastleigh will be reeling after seeing the MUFC tie snatched away from them & then throwing it away (twice) last night at Boreham Wood-plus it’s a long old journey up here for a team who played Weds night.

On you know what, the temperatures & weather largely favourable between now & Saturday afternoon so whilst the pitch will obvs be heavy, I can’t see any doubts about it being on.

Oh and if we get a pen please let Newby or Linney take it.

[MarpleAlty]

Same XI as the OP, swapping the winger sides (being pedantic).

Regan's missed a couple of pens too (which is really annoying as his first ones for the club were fairly emphatic, I genuinely thought we'd solved the headache) - Alex Newby on them I think.

Quite a lot of rain due today, and then the sun will be shining all of Friday with no further rain due until kick off - if the pitch can't recover in that timeframe then we really do have a problem.

Same as above.

Hoping for an update on the pitch before the game.

I'm going for P-P.

Think it must be your age! 😉

Having seen the pitch the other day on line, I wouldnt be surprised if it isn’t called off again. Hope I’m wrong, if it goes ahead. Alty 3 - 1 Eastleigh.

Hands washed! Not a clue about Saturday's score.

Possibly Newbys last game ?

[Saughall Robin]

Yes. I meant to put it to the boffins on here about Newby. What do we think the chances are of keeping him until the end of the season (when, I believe, his contract at Colchester expires)?

If the Cowleys  see him in their plans,he will possibly go back otherwise its loan extended, pay a transfer fee or get released from his contact ?

[distancetraveller]

They have just signed Alastair Smith on loan from Lincoln so hopefully they will let us hang on to Alex

I get the impression that Alex N wishes to come back to the NW for lifestyle reasons as much as football. So, if the Cowleys are sympathetic to that (and I imagine they’ll want a big clear out in the summer to prepare for a L2 promotion bid next season anyway) then we might just get lucky & keep him until the end of the season. Be a big loss if he does go back.

[MarpleAlty]

Obviously some well placed photgraphs, but pitch looks OK.

Game on.
