NO TEAM NEXT SEASON
At tonight's public meeting it was announced that there would be no Altrincham Reserves side next season (2002-03). This is a cost-cutting measure.

ANOTHER WIN
Alty Reserves match at Colwyn Bay yesterday was recorded as a 2-1 win to
Alty. After the Bay had conceded the points as they were unable to field
a full team, a game was played in which several Alty players turned out
for the Welsh side and one of them, Steve Lunt, even scored against his
own team in an unofficial 2-2 draw! The revised league table is here.
Other results this week were as below; Guiseley played in 3 games in which

LANCASHIRE LEAGUE NEWS
Burscough Reserves won 2-0 at Rossendale United on Wednesday last even
though the game was abandoned after 88 minutes because the Rossendale manager
refused to leave the playing area after being ordered off! The result will
stand for this game as it did when their match against Altrincham reserves
was abandoned after half an hour due to high winds at Flixton.
15 April, 2002

The 0-0 score of the game on 6th March against Rossendale, abandoned in

RESERVES 1 OSSETT TOWN RES 5
With the heart of the team missing as they were on duty for the Youth team
instead, Altrincham fielded a much changed Reserves' line-up. Not surprisingly
they struggled against a side more used to playing together. There was
a marked improvement in Alty's performance in the last 20 minutes after
they had brought on Danny Murphy and Paul Kerfoot. The latter scored a
fine consolation goal after 83 minutes. Match report here

RESERVES 3 BARROW RES. 1
Two goals from 16 year-old striker Steve Lunt and one from Sam Baker gave
Alty a fine win at Flixton last Wednesday (3rd).

WASTED EFFORT- AGAIN!
Following Wednesday's curious abandoned game, Altrincham travelled over
the Pennines to Nethermoor for today's away game versus Guiseley. However,
the match had to be postponed due to pot holes on the pitch! As Guiseley
do not have a groundsman an attempt was made to get the game started by
visiting a nearby B&Q to buy bags of sand to fill the holes. This proved
unsuccessful and Alty returned home without a game.
6 March, 2002
WINDS CAUSE ABANDONMENT
Alty Reserves's match tonight at Flixton against Rossendale United Res.
was abandoned after 32 minutes due to high winds. The score was goalless
at the time but the ref's decision seemed to have been influenced by the
last meaningful action, which was a long shot from Alty's Lee Thompson,
which was well saved by the Rossendale keeper despite taking a major deviation
because of the gusty wind. Earlier in the game there had been five minutes
of sweeping rain but the referee's decision to call the game off took everyone
by surprise. Altrincham were beginning to get the upper hand with Thompson
getting a shot past the keeper, which was cleared by a covering defender
(15 mins) and Jason Anthony forcing a good save from the Rossendale number
one (23 mins). For their part, the visitors' no.11 prompted a fine stop
from Dale Newbrook at his near post. Alty's team included six current Youth
players: 1. Dale Newbrook, 2. Barry Guildford, 3. Paul Robinson, 4. Vernum
Rowland, 5. Steve McGrath, 6. Lee McDonald, 7. Keith Mairs (capt.), 8.
Paul Tilley, 9. Jason Anthony, 10. Lee Thompson, 11. Sam Baker. The subs
included Richard Smith, Lee Shillito, Ian Horton and Mario Daniel.

MADEW, THE HERO
When Altrincham Reserves arrived at Leigh on Saturday, they found they
had no goalkeeper. Midfielder Stuart Madew volunteered to keep goal and
put in a fine performance in a 2-2 draw. For Danny Claffey's match report,
click here. A Leigh fan said afterwards, "until
I read the report I had no idea that the keeper was in fact an outfield
player. It certainly didn't show in the game! It was difficult for a normal
keeper in the gale-force conditions which blew straight down the pitch
so he did remarkably well". Other results this week:

2 September 2001
MORE ON FIRST GAMES
Against Morecambe (see below), Alty Reserves led till half-time against
a Shrimps side containing several first-teamers. Only in the last 20 minutes
did Morecambe's strength tell, with two goals being conceded by Altrincham
in the last ten minutes. In last Friday's game at Burscough, Alty again
took the lead quite early in the game through Hargreaves but conceded an
equaliser just before half time. Altrincham dominated the second half but
gave away a sloppy goal half way through the half and could not score an
equaliser. My thanks to Paul Johnson for this information. The next
Reserves game is at home to Leigh RMI this Wednesday; will Mark Ward be
in the RMI side? The game is at Flixton FC, Valley Road, Flixton, 7.30pm.
25 August 2001

than at Moss Lane.
