Boring County Draw At Altrincham

A strong County side failed to create a single chance against Blue Square Premier side Altrincham last night.

Anthony Pilkington, Leon McSweeney, Greg Tansey, James Tunnicliffe, Michael Rose and Paul Turnbull all started the game.

Gianluca Havern, Matty Mainwaring, James Vincent and Declan Edwards were the younger players who started, with a trialist goalkeeper in nets.

How can I report what happened? There was no creator what so ever in the County side, all the passing was side to side and back to the defence, occasionally County moved forward but could never challenge for headers in the box or get shots away.

Altrincham trialists Dave Challinor and Damien Allen played for the Conference side and impressed as they both completed a full 90 minutes.

However it may concern Jim Gannon this his young side couldn’t create one goalscoring opportunity against a semi-professional side last night.
