Re: The 2025 FA Trophy Final - Aldershot Town 3-0 Spennymoor Town (Match Day Thread)

CornishShot - is Wembley not what modern audiences want/expect from a stadium now? My opinion is the modern audience wants authenticity and community. With that beautiful mix of chaos and exhilleration. Ask a Hammers fan what they prefer, Olympic Park or Upton Park. Modern stadiums are just clones ...

Re: The 2025 FA Trophy Final - Aldershot Town 3-0 Spennymoor Town (Match Day Thread)

It was my first game in a very long time, going to football lost its sparkle for me a few years ago when my Dad was no longer able to go. But there was no way either of us were going to miss the chance to see the Shots play at Wembley and it was a great day out - the chance to go to football as a f...

Sure it's been mentioned already, but due to the stick he's received I'll say it again, I thought Theo was excellent at Wembley. Lower league opposition but a final nonetheless. Seems to get on well with Barrett too which can only help Barrett

Re: Open top bus tour details

When I first heard about this I thought it was a joke. Bit odd 😳 but hey ho. I hope anyone who attends has a fun and enjoyable evening! Have to agree somewhat. I've never had an interest in the FA Trophy before and I don't really understand the excitement. That said, any chance to beat Woking at a ...

Re: Against Modern Football

I thought the Wembley experience sums up the horrors of modern football. A completely corporate affair that sucks out the spirit of the game and leaves you with a Disney Land without the rides. Made me feel very thankful that we have the Rec

Re: Barrett’s Banger

Would like to admit at this point that at the beginning of the season I raised the point that Barrett looked overweight, and was generally annoyed as I felt he had loads of ability but wasn't bothering to get in shape. Regret those comments now, as clearly he's been one of, if not the best, Shots pl...

Re: Constructive ideas for Ground Development

Forget the project in it's current guise. It clearly was pie in the sky, given the obstacles that have appeared with the passing of time, not to mention a plan that got rid of the one asset that sets ATFC apart from most others. The East Bank. Rebuild the current ground stand by stand over a plan s...
