tranmere last night.

[Crown Grounder]

In all honesty. Not happy we lost having gone 2 up. But lets face it we've only played 3 competitive games. And overall I've been happy with the results so far, even last night. One big thing is we seem to be able to score goals, which was a problem last season. But, far to early to make any judgements about the team......lets see where we are after 10 games. We might have even seen more of the squad by then. And another big change which no one has mentioned. Our manager appears t be willing to make substitutions in games. Now that is something I welcome. Doesn't always work, but that is a massive change in his thinking in my book.

A friend of mine is a Tranmere fan and he went, he said their team was unrecogisable and the keeper was from Bamber Bridge or something. He told me it was a very poor match and they only had a recognisable midfielder on near the end when Mclear came on.

It gets worse. Tranmere rewarded with a home tie against Newcastle Utd.

For those who would turn failure into a virtue, I counter with - 2500+ Geordies at the Wham.
Now that's what I call the voice of reason.

It get's better, we'd have been a different ball number to Tranmere.
We'd have got Barrow. Away.

It doesn't get worse !!

ASFC would have been ball no 1 IF we had progressed. We would not have have the number allocated to Tranmere

Ball 1 was handed an away tie to Ball no 3 Barrow As pointed by Josh in the post above !!

It’s a load of balls now, whatever the numbers.

I didn't start supporting Stanley until they reformed in 1968, but League one football, superb new fan facilities, a good manager and Chairman at the helm......how lucky am I......it's fantastic.....and beats supporing ANY team in the so called Premiership...."hands down"......just think about it....🤔

Nothing to think about Crown Grounder, you are correct completely my friend

P.S. 50+ is not too shabby, we are not all as old as Cashy
