As long as Fred Else (or his son/grandson!) isn't in the net playing a blinder like he did in 1967 (here I go again!).

Seriously, I can see a low-scoring game. Barrow came up on their strength at the back and will no doubt be looking to keep it at 0-0 as long as possible so that their flying winger can create a breakaway goal.
It won't happen though - Lee will do it for us. 1-0.

PS: We're bringing the eldest grandson (i.e. Saughall Junior Junior) so an Alty win is assured.  ;)
It will imprint him as an Alty fan forever!  ::)

To be honest I hope he doesn't sign for Barrow, otherwise he could be running rings around us next Tuesday night.

I think it is more likely that Lord Lucan will attend the game having ridden to the ground on the back of Shergar.

Bare in mind that he will play the game of his life, score one, set one up and gesture to GH and alty faithful at full-time. This is not a prediction, this is just what happens, we've seen it so many times before.

Fortunately we'll still win 3-2!

I can live with that, three points for Alty is the only thing that matters to me.   :)

Perhaps worth mentioning that he brought a spark of live to what was an abkect team in September/October last season, albeit in a very individualistic way.

He has skill but that isn't enough at this level. He may do ok and fair play to him. That said, would he get a game in the side we have (on paper) now? I doubt it if we're honest.

Clearly he's just a misunderstood genius.

We should sign him back immediately!  ::)

I couldn't help but smile after reading that Barrow were alerted to Logan's availability by "his agent".

Am I to assume from this that the email sent to Inter Milan failed to elicit a reply?

For someone who featured so little for us it's amazing to see how much response the subject of Carlos Logan brings out in Alty fans.

For what it's worth my opinion is that he wasn't really given much of a chance to prove himself at all, coming on in a game with 20 /15 mins to go is a very hard thing to do, it takes time to adjust to the pace of a game etc.

I couldn't give a flying f**k about him perosnally.

He'll be awesome for Barrow against us then disappear and be released in January.  100%

Reverse psychology. I like it!

He'll have a shocker now to prove us wrong.
