Impressed to sell out in a little over 24 hours. Could have sold more as well by the sounds of it. 675 tickets sold for a match 225 miles away from ML is brilliant ad will surely lift the players.

3 of us going. COYR
Especially good given a Sunday 4pm kickoff. With e/t and pens, we’d have people not getting home until after midnight on a school/work night.

regarding team, is Wilson now avalable ?

Alty TV mentioned he is available.
When did they do that?

Just seen your fishing expedition on the Conforum re Bromley. Made me smile ☺
The initial rumour yesterday morning was something about Bromley and their pitch. Seemingly inaccurate but wasn’t a fishing exercise!

That was the 90/91 season, we beat them 9-2.
We beat them away 5-2, probably the 94/95 season, although that doesn’t really qualify as an exceptional result.

Clearly something's gone on behind the scenes for his departure to be announced in such a quiet manner - in normal circumstances I think we'd have given him a bit more of a send off.

Ultimately he was nowhere near good enough - it's as simple as that, harsh as it may sound.

Good luck to him, hopefully he establishes himself a little further down the pyramid.
Not sure that a player who managed 1 season deserves a send off? That aside, I really hoped that as a local lad he’d do well for us. It just wasn’t to be. Hope he moves on and makes a success of it somewhere else. Not Macc of course though.

Altrincham FC First Team / Re: York City Match Thread.
« on: March 13, 2024, 10:29:17 PM »
It's been 42 years since we beat York City in the FA Cup to earn the right to one of our finest hours in the the next round, knocking out then top-flight Birmingham City. We've not come a long way since then in terms of our progress up the pyramid - indeed we could be argued to have dropped back just a touch - but back then beating the Minstermen was very much a "giant killing". Looking at the current state of affairs at York one rather has to feel sorry for them. Next season they look nailed on to be routinely playing the likes of Rushall Olympic and Radcliffe, and when you consider that they'll be sharing that "privilege" with other ex League clubs like Chester, Southport, Darlington, Boston and the reformed Hereford and Scarborough....yes, we HAVE progressed.
It was York in the 4th round after we beat Birmingham in the 3rd round. 2nd round was Blackpool wasn’t it?

Does anybody know the attendance?
356. Hard to estimate the away support as everyone was spread out, but 40-50 maybe.

What's everyone's beef (or should that be tofu?) with FGR? Why don't we like them again?
Take a look at http://ftgotg.blogspot.com/?m=0 for details of their attempts to get us relegated.

46 year old Kevin Ellison could be our target. He played for Runcorn.

It's usually caused by a missing or corrupt stylesheet in the forum software
Thanks for the parking advice.

I get the same flawed forum display, but only on Windows 10 with Chrome following a recent Chrome update. Using safari on an iPhone is fine.
Edit - just checked Chrome on the iPhone and the display is wrong there too.

Portsmouth were away to Fleetwood in the round after they beat us.

Correct and it cheered me up no end.
Almost makes me glad we lost. What a terrible draw that was - on a par with Maidstone getting Stevenage this season (albeit at home).

If it hadn't been for the Wealdstone game we'd surely have beaten that wouldn't we? 🤔🙄😄
Surprisingly we’d only gone 16 without a clean sheet since a 1-0 vs Southend on March 25th.

The club need to update us on injuries and timescales more frequently.
Why? We might be interested in reading about updates but I doubt that anyone bases their decisions on whether to attend a match based on who is/isn’t likely to play. Beyond that, updating supporters also updates the opposition and allows them to prepare accordingly. Why give them that advantage.

A search on the forum history shows the code lc3467 from last year - assume it’s the same now as I’ve auto-rejoined for this year.

Incidentally, I wouldn't fancy living in one of those houses that backed onto the away end!

You’re not alone. Very odd layout whereby the away fans have to walk through Brookside to reach the turnstiles.
