Should be interesting. Not played you since the cheshire senior Cup final in 2000 have we?

Incorrect.

On 15th January 2002, we beat the Milkmen 2-0 in a Cheshire Senior Cup Semi-Final at Moss Lane.

Anyhow, Silkyman, how many of your lot will be renewing their season tickets for another dose of Keith Alexander's much-maligned hoofball then?

I see that his latest signing is some 6ft 4 inch ogre from Lincoln, so it doesn't look like he'll be adopting the principles of total football at the Moss Rose next season...

Didn't I read somwhere that season tickets at Macclesfield are some of the most expensive in the Football League? It's a big ask when you're watching, well, mildly effective crap...

I'd forgotten about that one.

We've sold over 500 so far, which is about the same as last season. The back end of the season we actually played some nice football, but when people get something into their heads, they don't let it go. I heard people shouting 'hoof' at 30 yard passes along the ground!

According to Lincoln fans, Ben Wright's biggest strength is getting on the end of through-balls and isn't great in the air for a big lad. John Rooney can supply him with plenty of those. We'll see. And so, I suppose, will you!

Dunno where you got that from. We're at the lower end of the scale on ticket prices. Some people like Bradford sell ST's for £130, but they can do that when they are selling 12,000!

Not to mention it's only £50 for U16s and free for anyone under 12!

However if you divide the cost by the quality of football they are the most expensive in the league

LEAGUE won't be the operative word much longer.  So long as all the clubs start with nil points I safely predict you will struggle...as per normal.  You should start with -20 for your rather dodgy dealings re. finance for your ground.  There was something a bit smelly about that as I recall.

Macclesscumfield - another place that should be closed demolished.  Send in the B52s.
