League leaders next up for Alty
Words Charlie Staples | Pictures Jonathan Moore & Sean Walsh
Alty will be looking to bounce back after Saturday's narrow defeat to Carlisle when they host league leaders Forest Green Rovers on Tuesday night at The J.Davidson Stadium.
It's another huge Enterprise National League game for Phil Parkinson's squad - and matchup you don't want to miss.
Another Tough Home Game
Following Saturday's game against Carlisle, the Robins sit 13th in the Enterprise National League, having won four and lost six of our first 10 games.
Jimmy Knowles was on target for the third game running on the weekend - Alty's top scorer now with five goals in 10 games to start the season.
Our Opponents
So far this season Forest Green sit top of the pile, undefeated after 10 games, winning seven and drawing three, under the management of former Macc boss Robbie Savage.
Some standout performers so far for FGR have been versatile winger Tom Knowles, who
has registered six goal contributions, as well as winger Kyle McAllister who
has picked up four goal contributions.
Last season, back in the fifth tier for the first time in seven season, Rovers finished third under experienced manager Steve Cotterill, narrowly missing out on a place in the promotion after defeat to Southend United.
The Gaffer
"I think if anybody watching us at the moment, take away the Boreham Wood game,
will know at some point it’s going to click for these lads, and the performances will turn into results.”
