Featured Altrincham player
Stuart Coburn; Stuart Coburn position goalkeeper, born 5th May 1976, is Altrincham's all time appearance record holder, Stuart joined Alty in 1997, but left to join Leigh RMI 2002, However after his release from Leigh RMI in 2003 Stuart Coburn re-joined Altrincham and I believe he's been their ever since, Stuart Coburn appears to have had an eventful career, as goalkeeper he has scored twice, was brought on as an outfield substitute once during the 1998 season, and surprisingly for a goalkeeper was once suspended mid season after picking five yellow cards, a true servant to his club and non-league football.

Altrincham manager Lee Sinnott Lee Sinnott is clearly delighted in steering his team to conference safety, and looking now at achieving a points target; http://www.messengernewspapers.co.uk/sp ... jail_card/
“Sometimes you need a get out of jail card but it is very pleasing to have done it ourselves, especially after our first half-dozen games, and I am delighted for a great bunch of lads.
"We're not finished yet and I have a points target to aim for. It was a strange game and sometimes, you get a bit more than you deserveâ€.
From a Torquay point of view
Not sure why I just do not leave this bit empty, but I won't. Just when you think things couldn't get worse they do, as if our current form and league position weren't bad enough, the arrival of Paul Sturrock gave us hope, only to be dashed four days later, on brighter side, young youth team goalkeeper Dan Lavercombe made his senior debut, and by all accounts did very well. I believe that both Luke Young and Duane Ofori-Acheampong will be suspended for this game, and with Ryan Bowman and John Campbell both missing games through injury recently this could leave us short up top for this game, the other question is, will Martin Rice be resorted to the starting line up after being rested Monday, love to be more positive and tell the world how we're going to win this game, but I'm sure Altrincham will be fancying their chances here.
And an appeal to Scott Brehaut, mate, you keep predicting a 3.0 win for Torquay, and we keep getting beat, can please predict a 0.3 defeat win might win, cheers.

Torquay manager Chris Hargreaves http://www.torquayunited.com/news/artic ... 79370.aspx
"We have four games to go in the season and still plenty to play for. I've got to start looking at things and possession is nonsense if you don't score goals." Well lets hope so Chris, current form is predicting a 19th place finish for us, and you have a massive summer coming up.
