Congleton Match Thread
« on: November 06, 2018, 10:53:15 AM »

Its tonight, anyone going?

I guess a good match to give players game time and also some of the reserve/youth players like Gabidon perhaps?

I'd expect all of the players named on Saturday's bench to start tonight (Wynne, Densmore, Scott, Richman, Gabidon) with Reserve and Youth Team players filling in around them.

Anyone's guess. Are Harrison and Goulding's loans actual loans, or just dual-reg? We could maybe see them get game time with us if it's the latter although that is speculation.

Names like Tom Westall, Harry Sheridan, Rhain Davis, Callum Harris, Joe Thompson, Ross Woodcock spring to mind this evening.

It's the long awaited return of Altrincham legends Anthony Griffith and Billy Hasler-Cregg, too.

I'll be in attendance. Certainly expect the 4 signed youth players to feature.

Antony Griffith! Someone to vent my spleen at

Altrincham 2-3 Congleton
I think Witton are playing Stalybridge tonight & I suspect Goulding would be better served playing in that game - a truer test. I don't think Trafford have a game, so Harrison might possibly be a candidate to play - but as you say it's all speculation.
I imagine the bulk of the side will be reserves/promising youths - the problem is that if you don't win these matches (& my suspicion is that we won't win tonight) you don't get opportunities to test out younger players against more robust opposition than they would normally face. By the by - I don't think Harry Sheridan is on the books now, but I could be wrong. Who is Ross Woodcock, please?

I believe it is the Anthony Griffith who's career was sadly ended by a career ending hip injury several years and clubs ago.

I've already tweeted @AGfitness my admiration for the way the lad keeps coming back despite never ever being able to kick a ball again due to his career ending injury that ended his career several clubs and years ago.

Fair play to the lad....to come back from a career ending injury that ended your career shows real determination...

Harry Sheridan was last seen being released by Trafford about a month ago although I'm not sure if he returned to us. Woodcock is a fullback we signed off Crewe who played for the reserves and was dual registered with Trafford at one point but has been injured and not seen in a while.

I'll be there tonight hoping to see a mix of squad players and promising youngsters.
