Atherton Collieries match thread
« on: July 15, 2019, 04:11:30 PM »

I'm quite looking forward to this - new ground for me, a team I know little about (but as they've just been promoted they're clearly not mugs), and hopefully a number of our players who feel they have something to prove after Saturday.

I hope to see Dontai Gabidon given another chance, and also the lad from Chester who wore the 3 shirt in the second half on Saturday.

It's important to get a professional performance under our belts, not least if we end up playing a "Blackpool XI" on Saturday that looks likely to be made up of juniors, program sellers, and the coach driver's nephew.

A minor point of interest: Atherton's former Preston North End and St Johnstone defender Clive Smith is Timperley based.

I saw them several times last year and they are certainly no mugs! They have enjoyed several promotions in the last few years and have a very settled team. It'll be a good test.

We really do need a proper keeper. Where is Drench? We played well in patches and Max's free kick was sublime. Colls will do well in the Evostik.

Thompson was really poor tonight. If Drench isn't going to be fit fairly soon, we need to bring someone in as a matter of urgency.

Was the mixup solely the doing of Thompson, or was Jones culpable too?

I do feel that the latter has lapses in concentration too from time to time you know. I'd feel much more comfortable with Hannigan and Harrison together at the back.

Needed a new keeper two seasons ago.

So frustrating as it is a vital position. 10 plus points are made by a decent keeper.

Hopefully Drench will be fit soon. Should have kept Wynne over Thompson.

A   bit too early to be concerned?

It wasn't just the mix-up. He flapped at the ball on three or four occasions.
