Goal of the season

its October FFS

[Hamilton]

I love the relatively low key 'oh, it's a great effort' (as if Brian thought it was going over maybe?) followed by the absolute explosion of noise.

I've been quoting the commentary at work to anyone who'd listen.

[wayno]

Flynny is on the commentary!!!

My whole night is complete!!!!

flynny is a legend

[Uncle Globnasty]

I can only imagine what my reaction would have been like if I was unable to attend and heard the commentary alone. Amazing.

I roared at the red and white walls of my living room, barely held onto my laptop and danced a little jig of joy as if nobody was watching (and indeed they weren't). My wife had long since vacated the room, sensing the tension in the air and anticipating the dark clouds that would accompany our 'certain' defeat. Gloriously wrong. The cold sweats brought about by the first half technical difficulties, where I was engulfed by a painful radio silence and feverishly refreshing the web page for the match day updates, were long forgotten.

I watched that fantastic Alty TV clip of the goal again and again and again and again (times too numerous to recall) into the early hours of the morning. I marveled, not only at the goal, but at the superb quality of the clip, the masterful, emotion laden tones of Mr Flynn on the mic. Goosebumps with each watch, an ecstatic combination of pride and joy. Nothing compares to actually being there and I so wish I could have been, but this is as good as it gets for an exile. We are truly blessed with a service that would put many in the Football League to shame and for that I am eternally grateful.

My eyes are as red as a baboon's arse today, but I care not as it's just more red and white showing through. I look like I've been on a Billy Big Bong Bender of Cheech & Chong proportions with stupefied grin to boot.

Long live Alty TV, long live RR, may whatever god you cling to shine down on the good ship Alty and all who sail in her.

Thank you and goodnight.

Disappointed with the commentary.
I was expecting at least 5 'JamesLawries' as in the Hednesford game.
We had to make do with one this time.

[Alty TV]

The Facebook clip has now "reached" over 30,000 people. Facebook define "reach" as the amount of people who can see the post on their "news feed" so it hasn't necessarily been watched by 30,000

I know can you believe we've put it to bed so early?

I suppose he could do it with the other foot in the away game...

At about 00:45 on the video it looks like Richman is p*ssed off about the smoke bomb on the pitch...

 For some reason I would have thought the players would enjoy that kind of thing

You really don't get it do you?

From about 13 to 20 secs in the behind the goal shot there are 3 Macc fans walking out who turn round to watch the ball going into the net but don't break stride or show any emotion when the goal goes in.  Bizarre

[Jezza]

flynny is a legend.....would have completed it with an expletive 

[Paul Cain's Chip Pan]

Was I the only one who was unable to listen to the commentary the other night? It didn't work for some reason despite trying it on a few different devices.

Smoke bombs are much less dangerous than flares

[Hale Alty]

As I said in the other thread started by Phil. I still fail to see why players would see smoke bombs being thrown on to the pitch as something to enjoy.

In the end it comes down to preference, I enjoy them because they add to the atmosphere but I imagine when i'm old and miserable I will learn to hate them
