A few gems for the dressing room wall on saturday
« on: August 20, 2009, 09:06:06 AM »

From AFCW messageboard

"I would love to go to Altrincham. I spent 2 hours on the net on Sunday looking at every route possible and the cheapest I could get the train from Cambridge was £69. I can't justify paying that for a game against a crap team."

"we'll have 450 or so there and they'll have 600 so the crowd won't be a lot over 1000"

"Alty may be 2nd but they have only played Histon, Hayes, Ebbsfleet and Barrow so it could be argued they had an easy start (3 of the bottom 6)!


I'll add accordingly during the week.....

Unfortunate phrase, but clearly they mean it's not a Luton/Oxford type fixture. I wouldn't get a bee in our bonnet about that.

As for pointing to our fixtures, they're right. Don't get me wrong, the lads have done brilliantly to get 10 points. I'd have said 5 points would have been about par. However, if ever there was a run of games to get off to a good start this was it.

Just out of interest, what's the address for their message board?

Well if the Oxygen thief thinks wer'e that sh*t then £69 to watch his beloved team beat us would be money well spent in my eyes.

Welcome to the BSP you toss pot.

What the hell is that??

Has to be the worst, most overly-fancy and confusing fans site on the web.

Rubbish.

What our Southern friends fail to realise is that, after just a few games, the fact we beat the teams at the bottom largely contributes to them being there !!!! It's like saying "Arsenal are a flash in the pan. They only beat Everton who are bottom of the league".

Took the words out of my mouth.  I think their run by a supporters trust so I take comfort from the fact they will have to call a meeting to buy a postage stamp.

I don't think our team needs any additional motivation to be honest. We'll just quietly go about our business as we've done up to now and let Wimbledon worry about coping with us.

I'm looking forward to the game, my first home fixture of the season - come on the Robins!!  ;D

I hope Dino doesn't see this - you may have to explain your absence from the other home games. Shame on you.

Am I right in thinking that the six forward and midfield players have now scored goals? Obviously the back four need to try harder!

We have played teams in the bottom few places because we have beaten them. How stupid can anyone be not to know that a defeat after 3 or 4 games WILL put you in the middle or lower part of the table - FACT.
