Title: Shaw Lane AQUAFORCE- Match Thread
Post by: Mrs Warbouys on December 04, 2017, 10:00:36 AM
Shaping up to be a big game Saturday. What we will need is a disciplined performance and strong officials, we can’t rely on the latter in this league but we must be cute enough not to rise to the punching, kicking, pinching and crowding around match officials which is a trait of our opponents. Keep the Ball away from them and they’ll be blowing out of their arses. Take a look at this footage from 5:30 for a flavour of their way of playing.

Hoping everyone is fit

Is Richman still suspended?

Did Hancock end up playing No10 at the weekend, or did Peers? Was Johnston on the left or the right?

Hopefully Poole will be back to give the Manager some healthy decisions to make.

Shaw are great at home - practically unbeatable in this league to be honest. I can't remember the last time they won away though.
4-1 to us.

They look a right bunch of fkn thugs. Could get a bit tasty on the pitch.

Off the pitch .. lets act like a club that wants to get promoted.  Proper Segregation . No giving them any favour, leave them at the away end so our fans can get behind the team...

Looking forward to this fixture.

We need our lads to keep there heads and play like we normally do and I fancy us to beat the team that's named after a Lido...
C'mon Alty our biggest test so far...

Richman is available. Hancock played as the 10.
did Diamian go there?

Yes.

Thank God Richman's available - I don't fancy Harrop's temperament against this lot unfortunately.

I wonder what JJ's ankles are going to look like on Monday morning...

Good point about Richman. They also have Kieran and Kelvin Lugsden at Shaw Lane where Kelvin, in defence, seems to be the more frequent starter.

What I've seen of them is aside from very physical,  is the keeper looks proper pony

They’ve signed a new keeper this morning

I reckon he might just be a back up keeper. 21yr old Myles Wright who was released by Buxton last year. 1 sub appearance for Chesterfield and a short loan spell at BPA so not much experience.

We need to be solid as a rock defensively, not give into their gamesmanship and we'll win 4-0 after they have a player sent off.

Discipline is key.....ARE YOU LISTENING MR HANNIGAN????
Title: Re: Shaw Lane AQUAFORCE- Match Thread
Post by: robininstockport on December 05, 2017, 12:21:48 PM
              Thompson

Densmore Harrison Hannigan Hampton

                  Moult Richman

    Johnson  Poole Hancock

                       Hulme

Harsh on Peers in a great asset to come off bench if needed.

Alty 2-1. Hulme Poole  attn 867.

If all fit I would go with Robins Stockport selection above, but I think Poole and Hannigan are struggling. If so Peers and Jones in for me

This but Jones over Hannigan,more disciplined and quicker. I would keep Peers in and have Poole as a sub. Hancock number 10. Can't bloody wait.

I wonder at what point on Friday afternoon will the club announce the £5 offer for ST holders of prem clubs.

Our organisation dropped notably after Hannigan went off on Saturday. Him over Jones all day for me.
Title: Re: Shaw Lane AQUAFORCE- Match Thread
Post by: MarpleAlty on December 05, 2017, 01:28:27 PM
I think Hannigan and Poole will play if they're anything close to full fitness.

Feel like I say this every week, but JJ HAS to be on the left.

Exasperated by his injuries or not (and we all are), Hannigan is by far and away the best defender in this league and probably very high up on the list of defenders in the northern league too.

Well if he's better than Harrison that's really saying something. Both are absolute Rolls Royce defenders at this level.

Watch them ship half a dozen on Saturday  :D

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday

Rain clearing early on Thursday, then much colder with blustery wintry showers. Sunny spells are likely to be interspersed with some snow showers on Friday. Drier with sunshine on Saturday.

Almost Mediterranean

I've seen Jon Stewart live once against Ramsbottom in the FA Trophy & watched a recording of the whole of the Mansfield FA Cup game last night & he was decent in both games.

Dootson seems to be doing well for himself - currently goalkeeping coach at Salford.

The new manager bounce  seems to be having an effect at Shaw Lane as they have now scored 12 goals in 2 games under Paul Quinn (without Craig Dootson being involved with the opposition). Admittedly, one of those matches was against Wombwell Main, but still...
