Official Match Thread Altrincham vs Southend United

[kentblues]

As the commentator has just said we have had plenty of ball… just no quality in the final third. That won’t get fixed short term without some investment. It really out wide and CM that creativity comes from.

Wood has looked decent since he came on.

What’s concerning is we have FGR Saturday, followed by away trips to Woking and Halifax.

Can anyone seriously see points from those?

 

[Tampa Blue]

Fortunately I can't make next Saturday

Unfortunately I can make it but even though I've a season ticket I think I'll give it a swerve like I did with Yeovil.

Glad Im off to New Zealand next weekend to watch the cricket for 5 weeks

 

[hlane17]

750 minutes and counting for Bonne

Any day now

Would help if we did a bit more attacking, perhaps he might find himself in front of goal.

Altrincham's defence has been dominant. Their centre backs/midfielders are excellent.

We can change formations but if individually we just haven’t got players that are good enough in certain areas we are just going to remain a mid table NL side short term.

Do you really think we need investment in the front line and that’s the issue?

Edit - no apologies I see you mentioned CM and I agree. And yes we need earlier, better crosses as we’re so easy to read.

Who is King Crab going to blame today for his disgraceful team selection?
Goals everywhere in the League but the mighty Southend roll over again and offer nothing
He must be gutted to take off the obvious midfield jokers Miley and Husin having selected them in the first place, we really have got the most mis firing manager of all time....travelling fans deserve so much better than what the manager serves up EVERY WEEK

7 goals in his last 67 games for four teams. Just saying....

Just realised Altrincham have a rookie keeper in goal today. Good job we’ve tested him with a massive 1 shot on target.

Absolutely criminal. A 21 year old debutant drafted in late notice. Had shaky kicking early on and punches crosses. And yeah we have barely tested the lad anything. We are allergic to shooting

Very shot shy says the commentator

 

[Shrimper4lifeCBS]

I wish I hadn't bought a ticket for Forest Green next week now.

You’re lucky I paid for 3 season tickets to watch utter tripe!! lol

Being generous I'll say a point at Woking.

 

[Barling Magna]

Great ball through to GSM but his cross is useless.

 

[Tommy2holes]

Have we ever had a more blunt and defensive side before.

This is mind numbing.

 

[Sufc.2008]

Lovely ball from Morton, exactly what we’ve been missing all game. Followed by an overhit cross by GSM, exactly what we’ve seen all game.

They certainly need to up their game next Saturday very poor performance some of our players need to sit down and have a good think about their performances

 

[Somerset Ex-TTB]

We are even frustrating their commentators.
