Is this game free for season ticket holders? I ask only as it usually is for friendlies but it hasn't been mentioned.

I don't think it will be as season tickets are advertised as free entry to pre season friendlies so this might not count.

It's usually £7 for the pre season games so a fiver in seems fair enough and will provide a much needed boost to the coffers if we can get 300-400 in.

I could be wrong of course, I often am.

Mark,
Are you having a laugh. Apart from losing £4500 at Trafford and other potential income from the Cup, they have last year's FA Cup money, FA Cup TV money, Duncan Watmore money and other usual sources of income ( advertising/ season ticket sales etc.). I don't think they spent all that much in close season. Perhaps the Chairman, who is pretty quick at coming on here to ask for money, could  come on here and  tell us what has happened to the monies mentioned, or what he intends to do with them. >:( >:(



The players/management lost a football match, should we make sure that we hit "the club" in the pocket further just to really show them?

My guess is that if on Thursday "the club" offered a free friendly as an apology for going out of the cup it would have got a response of "a free friendly??? :( :( :(, we don't want an f'in free friendly, we want to be going to Corby"

The game was arranged for the team I would guess, you could come along if you want.  Some did and quite enjoyed it, most didn't and did what they were planning to do anyway.  No big deal either way.

Fiver seemed pretty fair to me.

As for the "we've got loads of money so don't need to fundraise" attitude, don't know where to start with that.  

My worry is that if we have apathy or an attitude that is almost anti fund raising it will eventually send us back to the begging bowls anyway so you might be outraged every week when asked to help.

And yes my sleeping pattern is up the wall!

It should be free for everyone IMO. Its like saying sorry for a woeful FA Cup performance meaning we have no game today but don't worry we'll charge you a fiver for a pointless friendly instead! See you next Saturday.

SPOT ON. And that Alty fans actually turned up, beggars belief. >:( >:(

Why Mr Dissent?.....a good opportunity to see some fringe players, see exactly what level the new northwich are at, I had nought to do yesterday and may as well have spent the fiver at alty as opposed to ice skating or something...and I rarely get Saturday's off.

the only thing I was disappointed at was that lee did not use the opportunity to have another look at the 3 at the back formation and give the players more chance to get used to that system.......moss lane erupted when the winner went in as well!!!  ;D

I am a st holder,didn't mind paying to see the game , the two trialists  looked solid  , i thought we did play with three at the back ,Scott ,Luca and Rodgers , with buzz ,Simon ,Junior and Danny in Mid, with James playing behind front two.

Id start with this on sat - same formaton as yesterday/last weekend 2nd half.

It allows more of a fluid style, Rodgers doesnt need to be forced to hit long balls, Bosh can drop and dictate play whilst richman and lawire provide legs.

It suits Sinnotts aim to play whilst keeping it solid

, its similar to Chesters last season where they could switch between a solid defensive unit without losing creativity.

If this is what play more often we need 2 CB's to come in

i agree this could be correct however I wouldn't agree fully till  iv seen it more 45 minutes against a shocking guiseley side is not enough evidence

Played for teams in the top New Zealand division, also apparently in the US somewhere.

Shame we didn't get to see him defend really as we were well on top at the point and just attacking.

In terms of looks though he looked like a mountain (in a non fat way), certainly has the stature of his play can match it.
