Altrincham appearances: 0.

Altrincham signed Nicky Clee from Hyde United on 17 July 2009. He is primarily a left-winger but can also play at left-back, as well as being an accomplished batsman for Marsden CC near Huddersfield. Nicky was also first in the queue to go in goal should such an opportunity arise.

It was a former Alty boss, Gerry Quinn, who took Nicky from Ossett Albion, whom he had joined in 2002-03 from local football, to join Ashton United in the 2003-04 season.

The following summer he moved to Hyde United, where he made his debut at the end of July 2005. Nicky made 147(+12) appearances and scored 21 goals in all for the Tameside club.

As well as his trickery on the ball, which unlocks defences, he has a very long-throw in his armoury. Nicky soon became a fans' favourite at Moss Lane and has scored some memorable goals for Alty.

His non-football job is as a finance assistant in a Huddersfield company. His start to 2015-16 was affected by an injury picked up in pre-season but he started his first game in October. But after a series of substitute appearance his season was curtailed by the need for an operation.

The Club's all-time appearance record holder, Stuart is the Club's senior semi-professional and hugely popular with supporters. He first joined the Club from neighbours Trafford in 1997/98 season, having been at Shawe View since 1994/95, after earlier spells at Irlam Town and Maine Road. Injury meant that Stuart played only nine games in his first Conference season (99/00) which saw the Robins relegated.

In May 2002, the lure of Conference football took him from Alty (then in the Northern Premier League) to Leigh RMI on a two-year contract. However, Leigh surprisingly released him in October 2003 after he had been voted their player of the season. He rejoined Alty on 17 October 2003 and made his (second) Alty debut at Hyde United on 21 October 2003.

Stuart can also make several claims unmatched by other keepers; he has scored twice whilst playing in goal, (once for Alty [at Runcorn] and once previously), has an outfield league-match substitution to his name, (in April 1998 versus Emley)... and was once suspended in mid-season for picking up five yellow cards!

In his private life, Stuart is manager of a hire shop business in Altrincham. Stuart was injured against Dover in the fifth match of 2015-16 and was sidelined with a groin tear. After a gruelling recovery schedule, Stuart sadly announced his retirement on 23 April 2016. Altrincham appearances: 687(+2), 1 goal.

Injury affected his season but in the latter part of the campaign he was a regular used sub or starter.

After several appearances from the bench, Ryan secured a starting position in September, only to be injured in October. Recurrent absences through illness and injury limited his effectiveness and it was not till April 2016 that he completed his only full 90 minutes in the league in that season. He was released at the end of the season and joined Ashton United. Altrincham appearances: 43(+28), 5 goals.

Such was his success that he became the Supporters' Player of the Season 2014-15. As well as displaying aerial prowess, Tom possesses a powerful shot.

Emile's Alty career started with a goal just 35 seconds into his debut against Curzon Ashton! But he was released after barely more than a fortnight at the Club. He immediately joined Bradford PA.

Wayne joined Altrincham, on loan from Kidderminster Harriers, on 28 October 2016, having appeared three times for the Midlands club earlier in the season. His professional career started at Torquay United (1995-2000), where he made more than 100 first-team appearances. Almost 200 outings with Stoke City followed, before 50 games for Burnley in 2005-07.

2007–2010 was spent with Southampton, who paid £1.2 million for his services. This was followed by a spell at Doncaster Rovers. After a spell playing abroad (Greece) he briefly joined Luton Town in 2013 before he experienced a loan spell at Rochdale. 2013–2014 saw him at Tamworth and 2014–2016 at Worcester City (where he even kept goal once) before he moved to the Harriers in 2016.

Greg's second spell at Altrincham started on 15 September 2016 but his release was announced on 20 January 2017 after adding 11(+5) games and two goals to his career record in the 2016-17 season (see below).

A central midfielder, he had originally joined Altrincham on 18 October 2013 from Stalybridge Celtic, where he had made 165 appearances and scored 21 times.

Greg established himself in Altrincham FC folklore when he scored the goal which won the Skrill North promotion final against Guiseley in May 2014, just 22 seconds after joining the game from the bench in the final minute of extra time. He had been brought on for the penalty shoot-out as he is a calm finisher, a quality he had exhibited when he scored several important goals earlier in 2013-14 season.

Greg's great uncle, Nick Boland, played for Altrincham in the 1930s, and, after joining from Wolverhampton Wanderers he moved on to Southport.

Having started his career at Curzon Ashton, Greg joined Manchester United's Academy at Carrington, under Paul McGuiness and Rene Meulesteen, where he remained for four years, playing in the same side as Danny Welbeck and Tom Cleverley. After being released he played for amateur club East Manchester in the Manchester League, as well as Curzon Ashton's youth team, where he played mainly at centre back or right back.

He signed for Steve Burr at Stalybridge Celtic at Christmas, 2007. Under Celtic's subsequent manager and current Alty boss, Jim Harvey, Greg was at the time the youngest captain ever of the Bower Fold club.

Prior to his memorable goal against Guiseley, in the latter part of the 2013-14 season Greg had featured exclusively from the bench and this continued to be the case in 2014-15. Consequently, Greg went on loan to Stockport County at the start of 2015 and remained there till the end of the season when he moved on to AFC Telford United. Altrincham appearances: 25(+25), 8 goals.

Neil Young was unveiled as manager of the club on 1 May 2016, following the departure in March of Lee Sinnott and the subsequent period as caretaker manager of Neil Tolson. Neil had previously enjoyed managerial success at Colwyn Bay (with whom he won prompotion to the NPL), Chester FC (where he enjoyed three promotions, including reaching the Football Conference) and Stockport County. Sadly, after three creditable draws at the start of the 2016-17 season, the team lost the next three fixture disappointingly and on 28 August 2016 Neil resigned from his position and announced his retirement from football management.
