Having seen off Shaw Lane, and with three players who turned out for us pre-season, Rammy are going to be really up for this from the get go. This should be a "typical cup tie".

Alty 3 (Hulme, Hancock, Poole) Ramsbottom 2 (Wright, Brownhill)

Attendance 1056

Also agree with Turd about the crowd, while I expect Jordan Hulme to be up for it, just like Messrs Brownhill and Heathcote, against his local and former club.

So, Altrincham 3 Ramsbottom United 2 att. 601.

Incidentally, a few user names have caught someone's interest on the Rammy forum. Mind you, they also expect a crowd of over 1000, based on the Buxton attendance, to be in the next round and to have one of their fans bringing a drum on the tram. Hmm.

The Rammy rattler. Fair play to them getting a bit excited, it’s a bit like us playing at an Oxford or a Tranmere I suppose. I think they’ll make it hard for us but I expect us to go through on the day, 3-1 Alty in front of 650ish.

Isnt it now club policy to only segregate once everyone is in the ground unsegregated and it's clear there could be trouble?

I'm sure our 6 dozen stewards can handle anything our previously well qualified squad of stewards who mysteriously left en masse could.....

Looking forward to a decent game tomorrow if we (The Rams) perform to our capabilities- our away form to date (drawn three lost the rest) does not bode well. We will only bring 50/75 at max with an average age of 40 plus. There will be no need for any segregation as we are a very friendly jovial set of fans. May the best team win, looking forward to sharing a drink with you Tomorrow- if you see the drum please confiscate it.

Its nothing personal, Scout. I'm sure Rammy fans are a friendly bunch, as are we, but too many times in recent years we've surrendered our home advantage by allowing vocal fans access to the Golf Road End. Before and after the game you won't find a more accommodating club than us, but as far as the ninety minutes go, we need to be a bit more serious. There are similarities to Altrincham v Witton, FA Cup 2QR in 2011, here.

Glad you agree about the drum!

At risk of being shouted down from all quarters - once I've paid my money to come into the ground, as things currently are, I expect to be allowed to stand or sit wherever I wish and to move about freely if I so desire. Further, those who advocate segregation have to accept that there's a quid pro quo about this - i.e. they must expect their access to away grounds to be similarly limited. I for one am not prepared to be thus restricted. I look forward to a good game & to perhaps meeting some new people; let those who wish to have a drink before or after the game (of whom I'm not one) do so in peace, and let everyone support their own team - though I do agree that drums should be sent back wherever they came from!

Completely agree. I went to Warrington away which wasn't segregated amd enjoyed it. The most uncomfortable part was the Alty fans being rowdy in the home team club bar at half time. Pot/kettle.

Routine win for the boys today, 4-1 did not flatter us, indeed it should have been more.
Well done Jordan for your hat trick, but the main worry of the day was Joel, he has been playing well in the last few weeks, but tody he had an absolute stinker, everytime he touched the ball we were worried what would happen. Also two early goals conceeded in games is concerning, especially after the post match interview last week when Tony, talked about setting off slowly in games. One we need to work on.
JJ was a different class today and the Ramsbottom team took turns in kicking him up in the air, but the referee didn't seem to spot that. I also thought that Hampson supported him well on the left particularly when we were breaking forward.
With Shaw Lane drawing, Jake back next week, another decent crowd and a return to winning at home, a good weekend. We just need to tighten up at the back before we play anyone decent.
Title: Re: Ramsbottom Match Thread
Post by: Chris.F. on November 11, 2017, 05:55:01 PM
A good performance today a a pretty routine win after another early goal conceded.
Joel has been excellent at full back this season, he had a shaky start but settled well playing out of position.
A bit concerned about continued negative comments about him today which continued to the end of the game , we don't want to start making scapegoats of players just because they make a few errors.
On the positive side PP has shown that he knows a player the 3 that he released who played for Ramsbottom today would not be starting in our first team.
That said Sam took his goal well.

Thought after first 10-15 minutes we settled and they had to back off, they couldn't press like they started. Pity we gifted them a goal, but we responded.

Hopefully get Jones or Hannigan back soon.

Terrible start (again) but after the goal and Heatcotes free kick they never really tested us.

Today, PPs decision to not hang his hat on Brownhill, Heathcote and Wright was proven right.

Bembo-Leta scares the sh*t out of me at cb.

The fact County let Hampson play today gives me hope he may stay for longer than the initial month.

Massive changed team for Tuesday please.

With Shaw Lane only drawing today an away win on Saturday would be most welcome.

Post by: distancetraveller on November 11, 2017, 08:11:47 PM
We need to stop these slow clumsy starts to games. A decent team will punish us greatly otherwise.

TT needs to cease fkn about and get rid of the ball quicker, JJ was free on numerous occasions in the first half and TT never saw him.

Bembo seems unable to cope in the middle with players coming at him from both sides and is much better utilised at rb,

Hulme was superb today and took his goals well .. he holds the ball up very well

Poole JJ and Harrison also had great games..

When Jake AND Simon play then we become a very good team and should fear no team in this league.

Good to see Sam Sheridan available again...

I have missed today, first game for a while,but when I saw Bembo-Leta at centre back I was worried and actually made the comment that I wondered if the first goal was his mistake.Unfortunately that is the fear I've always had with him. However he has done OK recently but I just know we would be more stable and stronger with Dens at right back and Short left.

Again we have a lot of injuries or not match fit players at the club. I am enjoying the season a lot and I am only critical because we most certainly have a good enough squad to win this league and we have players who can play football with a footballing brain, which has has been missing for a couple of seasons.

Agree with the above comments about the three released players playing for Ramsbottom today, seems Parky knew what he was doing after all! Sam took his goal well, but technically his ability wasn't in question when he was with us. Stand out performances from Hulme, Poole (after a quiet first half) and Max Harrop whose passing was superb. How nice is it having a team and manager that we can finally believe in and trust.
Title: Re: Ramsbottom Match Thread
Post by: PukkaPieman on November 11, 2017, 09:27:09 PM
Thought Rammy tried hard enough but lacked any real quality, especially upfront. Sam took his goal well though.
I thought the big positives today were the performances of Max Harrop and Connor Hampson, although they all played well.
Dens had an excellent game (Jerome didnt get a sniff all afternoon) and the offensive players are proving to be so consistent and penetrating if they get decent service its frightening.
TT was too cautious/slow to start off with distributing the ball and their goal was his mistake, JBL was just trying to get out of the way of his miskick.
Parky had a word with TT after about 15mins and he was much quicker after that and didnt give Rammy time and that was why we improved a lot after that.

Keep it up lads, Jake is back too for the next game.
