I'm disappointed by Altrincham today. I checked their website last night and again this morning, and there was absolutely no mention whatsoever of a pitch inspection even being considered. I therefore set out this morning and was 60 miles from home before discovering that the game was called off. It's very annoying to have a 120-mile wasted round trip - especially in driving rain. Surely with modern technology as it is and a club within the semi-professional ranks, somebody at Altrincham could have fore-warned via their website that a pitch inspection was going to be needed?
I got as far as Stoke and from the amount of standing water on the fields around there, a postponement was probably the correct decision. But Altrincham officials need to think about away supporters and communicate what is happening a lot better and a lot earlier. I'd write and ask them for a reimbursement of my expenses, but why waste ink as well as petrol?
well i did ask the question this morning, but like a lemming i got on the train, and to be fair had a good day at Man City.
But questions need to be asked as to to lack of info !!!
