Really excited to see Dan Mooney for the first time and Craig Mahon for a sustained period. I hate predicting a win, but I must confess to feeling optimistic about this one.

Our home record should see a comfortable win.
Other fixtures see Boston v York and Spennymoor v Brackley so at least 2 of the teams that we care about are going to drop points on Saturday.

Currently 9th in the away form table (last 6 matches), this pick up since Paul Cox's arrival. Their two defeats in this run coming at Boston and York both by one goal, alongside results such as a win at Spennymoor and a draw at Brackley. So no pushovers away from their ploughed field of a pitch, but we should certainly have enough to beat them, provided we take our chances when on top.

 3-1 to Alty

 No Premier League games due to The Winter Break so would expect a 1500 Gate

 Hopefully the predicted storm and heavy rain don't arrive until after 16:50

Looks like it's going to be a windy one, and Kettering will be a bigger banana skin than we think.

Play like we did on Tues night and we should pick up another 3 points.. need to cut out the silly errors at the back though which led to Telfords two goals..
4-1 Alty

I think it will be a comfortable win, the lads are flying at the moment and we’ll get about them from the off, I reckon 3-1 Alty.

With no MCFC/MUFC tomorrow and the PL ST holder discount I think the gate will be north of 1500, I’m going 1586. Momentum is really building.

An Alty win and clean sheet, Spennymoor/Brackley and York/Boston both draws would be a terrific afternoon. New signings have been great thus far and the feel good factor seems to be returning to Moss Lane. Atmosphere has been superb the last few months, let's get the Golf Road End rocking once more!

A 3-0 win with Hulme, Hancock and Hannigan. Crowd 1322.

Kettering ran that game and did everything bar score a winner. Lot'so of moaning about the ref but I thought he got on top of the fouling quite well. I do wonder if we expected them to roll over and were a bit surprised to find them competing so hard for everything.

Kettering were better than us throughout but they never really looked like scoring a second. Their number 7 was decent and their number 5 took Jordan completely out of the game.
It's not often that we're out passed. In fact, I haven't seen us pass the ball so badly all season - we'll done to Kettering for closing us down so well. Our best players without a shadow of a doubt were our centre backs. It wasn't a good day at the office and we need to improve. I think Craig Mahon is more of a Hancock-type player than a winger and we had a glaring gap down that flank throughout the match.
I didn't think the ref had a good game I'm afraid. I can't remember how many players he booked, but I didn't think the game warranted so many cards - always a bad sign with a ref. And God knows what the rules are for taking a throwing if their number 2 is allowed to start his run up half way in his own half and release the ball on the halfway line!
Anyway, it was 2 games in a few days, on a heavy pitch in difficult conditions. Onwards and upwards.

We were due a bad game. They were well organised defensively but too many of our players weren't on their game today. The wind played a part but its the same for both teams. I'd have liked Mooney to drift out wide a bit more and stretch their defensive marking. Got to be happy with a point all things considered, we'll play better and lose.
