I think half of the argument of this article - essentially that our natural position as a club, given our level of support and playing budget, is the middle/top half of the Conference North - isn't that controversial. But to use that to make out that our relegation from that league is the sort of thing we should have been expecting to happen sooner or later is absurd. We shouldn't be anywhere near the relegation places in Conference North, even at our lowest ebb.

Exactly this.

We should be a top half Conf North / bottom half Conf National team given our current resources, but with ambitions of more. There is no point in carrying on if there's no ambition. This piece appears to be saying that we should all of been half expecting relegation to the lowest level in our history irrespective of 'off the field' goings on and that is total and utter garbage of the worst kind. Some might go so far as to say this is a strategically (that word again) timed propaganda piece.

It appears as if Altrincham FC has become a dictatorship. Propaganda pieces, use of the press to besmirch the name of opponents, family members and friends filling supposedly open vacancies, family members spying on dissenters, shutting down of anyone with an opposing viewpoint and a total inability to admit any wrong-doing.

The first four words of your final paragraph are, unfortunately, unnecessary.
