Well you have made my xmas today  , fantastic result........110 % effort from everyone on the pitch (especially Bushell)........It must have been our best performance of the season and with 10 MEN.

If we could only play like that every game would be a top half finish  .

WELL DONE LADS

THANKS FOR A GREAT YEAR

COME ON ALTY 

[CB]

What a fantastic game!!! After the (disgraceful) sending off of Colin, I wondered how we'd score and whether we'd have to hold out for a point..... fecking unbelievable response from the lads. Rod played his best game since Aldershot last season, took people on, got shots in on target and got the first not long after Colin went. In the 2nd, they had a few more chances but didn't really look like scoring. Bushell, again another playing his best game, controlled the midfield, whilst Joe (who I have criticised in the past) played some lovely stuff, but wasted several opportunities in front of goal (not to mention getting kicked in the face... ouch!).

Really proud of every single player. Great response from the last home game.

Great attendance - 2200 I think? Any one know what the breakdown was?

Brilliant game, brilliant fans. I love you Alty!!!

I had to wait til Boxing Day for the best present of the lot!!!

[Jenga]

+5 goodwins for you my friend

[gazwarrington]

Interesting to read on Vics forum that they say we are relegation candidates and not that good, despite admitting that we 'wanted it more'

I would have thought that playing for 70mins with 10 men and winning 3-0 is not that bad and a funny judgement to make ?

What a truly wonderful day for Altrincham Football Club.

An inspired team performance, with two men who've come in for a lot of criticism lately (Bushell and O'Neill) giving excellent displays. I'd also like to give Graham and Dalton a huge amount of credit because when I looked at the team line-up, I was hoping that we'd have Chalmers on the left, Thornley on the right and Lawton in the middle. But they got it right - the running of Rod and Robbie on the flanks was a big factor for us today.
And what a tremendous third goal - great passing, patience from Pat, support and coolness with the finish from Robbie. Celebrations pretty good too.

The size of the gate was a huge bonus - genuinely heartening to see so many at Moss Lane for a proper Boxing Day match.

And to cap it all, my Dad won a hamper in the raffle!

These are the days that make it all so worthwhile.

Don't we just luv 'em

If you put both your hands round an opponents throat I don't think you can have too many complaints.

Respect to you to, it really takes something to come on here and say that.

[Nasha]

I will post a honest view of the game for tomorrow.For now.......................................

This is what you get for going to places like Vauxhall/Frickley/Blyth on a wet Tuesday night expecting you were going to lose.

This is reward for those 450 people who went to Moss Lane on a Tuesday night for a Unibond game.

This is reward for GH and other people who were there that cold night in Burscough in 2002,when playing Northwich again seemed a lifetime away.

3-0,3-0,3-0,3-0,3-0

[Alty Dave]

Nice to see away supporters putting on genuine words! I personally hope both teams stay up and we have more Derby games!!

As for Colin, I agree it is a bad idea to raise your hands, however I was oppposite the incident and i do not think they were round his throat. The decision was extremely harsh, I hope we appeal and send any suitable video footage we have!! Three games out is a blow!!

Rod was great today, as were all the team, good to see the Pride Passion and belief return.

[Jimmy Hill]

He raised them to his throat, whether he put them round the throat is almost immaterial.

[CB]

I saw it as handbags from both players. Colin pushed the other guy, but one hand accidentally caught, without any force, the other guys throat/top of his chest. Both pushes from both players were feeble to say the least.  It was 20 odd minutes into the match, the first bit of aggresssion from either sets of players, I just thought it was extremely harsh. They should have both got a booking. I know what the laws of the game say, but anyone could see it was all or nothing

Deep breath - you guys were brilliant yesterday and I and some of the others around me applauded your third goal, what a peach. We were completely inept in all departments save Right Back. A goalie who couldn't kick past the half way line, 3 defenders who couldn't tackle or couldn't be arsed, 4 midfielders who were bypassed in the vain hope of finding a striker who can't shoot straight anyway. It was like watching a sketch from Benny Hill, never mind Jimmy Hill.
 Well done again, but I really fear for our future, the Walrus won't be a happy bunny and if he doesn't shell out in the transfer window (which I don't think he will) we are going back down.
