York City - Match Thread
« on: November 04, 2019, 12:47:40 PM »

If you Are travelling to york by train on Sunday then remember there will be no metrolink services travelling through St Peters Square between 10:15 and 12:30 due to the remembrance service at the cenotaph. Anyone using the tram after that time will have to get off at deansgate- Castlefield. All direct York services call at the airport, Piccadilly, Oxford road and Victoria. So Oxford road is easily  walkable from deansgate-Castlefield if coming through later than 10:15 but most should be through by then for for 1245 kickoff

York 8/13
Draw 31/10
Alty 4/1

A tough assignment but we can get a result at bootham Crescent, we know we are capable enough. Despite the BBC trying their best to ruin the tie, I’d hope everyone who can travel does do, the lads will need our backing and these first round ties don’t come along to often. So if you can get to York, then get yourselves over rather than opting for patchy updates on the television, the lads need you.

Yes, we all know the kick off time not ideal but it’s a very big game for the club & hopefully a few hundred of us at least still make it.

Whilst they are still unbeaten it’s worth noting Farsley, Guiseley & Southport amongst others have taken a point off York this season so getting them back to Moss Lane is a realistic target I’d say. We were also full value with 250 away fans for our win there back in March so it’s a ground this team knows how to win at.

Looking forward to a big tie and then a few beers round York after. Come on Alty!

Gutted to be missing this, but I'm working 8-3 on Sunday. Will have to rely on the BBC - not a very dependable option.

Big decisions to made in a big game. Flat back 4 or 3 with wing backs, Williams or Richman, 2 from Ceesay, Hulme and Peers?

As I can't make I'd love a draw. If we're in the hat on Monday it will have been a good day.

York 1-1 Alty. Hulme

I wouldn't want a draw. If this is going to be won it needs doing on the day.

Flat back 4 of Dens, Jones, Hannigan and White. Moult sweeping as he does.

If Ceesay is pain free with his hamstring I would start him. Maybe start Peers on the right over JJ. Simply because he is much stronger and they are a physically fit team.

As all the games I think we should get at them. A back 3 may invite on pressure.....

Hancock behind Hulme.

I'd imagine PP would go with the same team that started at KL. There is definitely a case for Ceesay starting instead of JJ though, given the extra physicality York will bring. Does anybody know if Wall will be available for this game?

I think there'll be more Alty fans at this game than people imagine.

I would assume so. It looks like he only joined Witton after they had been knocked out of the Cup by Belper Town.

Luke Wall played for Curzon against Blyth in the cup, and so will not be available.

So he did. I knew he was at Curzon last season, but hadn't realised he started this season there.

Would be happy with a draw and in the hat Monday.

Tougher than Barnsley at home, but not as tough as our Misfits going to Lincoln and nearly grabbing a draw.

Should be a mega tie.

We should lose. They are unbeaten in God knows how long. But, d'you know - we're just the sort of team who can do them and it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

We drew at Kings Lynn and Guiseley. We've beaten Chester and Southport.
In August Moult was hospitalised, Ceesay wasn't around and Hulme wasn't scoring.

It's different now. I'm optimistic and I'll be there.
