Title: Altrincham v York City on Tuesday
Post by: UkrainianPhil on February 20, 2011, 03:22:06 PM
Good win for you yesterday, Greg Young scoring the winner!

Sadly for you he can't play on Tuesday night as part of the loan deal........

Should be a decent turnout from York on Tuesday, at least 400 you would hope, and for us it's a crucial game in our quest for a play-off place. We have a full strength squad to choose from and, as we didn't play yesterday, we should be raring to go. We have lost the last 3 away games, including a 4-0 shocker at Southport, but have beaten AFC Wimbledon (4-1) and Fleetwood (1-0) in our past two home games. As nice as club as you are and as good a relationship our clubs have, we will be coming to go all out for a win. Nothing else will do at this stage of this season, 10 points of the play-offs with 4 games in hand, so we can't afford any slip-ups.

I am coming across early for a few beers, looking forward to it.

The clue is in the second line.  ;)

Should be a good game as well.  Always nice to see some away fans on the chequers end.  And although they'll be one or two basic shouts I can't see York fans singing about us going down all match.

Very very difficult side but we often play better against better teams..

My favourite home pissup match of season.

Gutted it's Wegbury's last game (he said he'd rather stay and play than go back to Macc and not play), just hope Connors keeps peforming.

"We'll be playing you for years" I really hope, anyway, always bring a good set of fans, looking forward to it

surely a draw would be an acceptable result for both teams.....no disrespect towards anyone of course.....I guess the whole result  depends on wether the officials are having marital problems or something...

Not for us, no.

It's win matches, and win matches NOW, or else it's no Play-Offs and all a bit of a damp squib of a rubbish season.

A draw away at Alty and away at Hayes & Yeading is no good to us. We need 6 points this week desperately.
