A few weeks away yet, but this could be the biggest attendance Victory Park have had for many a year with it being a title cruncher. Come on Chester beat those Leigh stealing body-snatchers.

Can they pass the ball to each other?

a superb 3-0 win for the colls at ramsbottom, was probably there best performance of the season against a strong rammy team who beat league leaders Radcliffe boro on boxing day, once we got in front never looked like losing and could have scored more, #upthecolls

getting tight at the top of the evo stik west now

Money at Radcliffe makes them favourites, we'll keep grinding out results. Only 2 on the bench, still had way more than Rammy.

 

Finally made it to Trafford on Boxing Day. Managed to see a few of the visiting Atherton lads. Athie's goalscorer was a regular for us on Prem 5s on a Monday night when I use to turn out for Mount Skip. 1-1 draw. Decent crowd. Hip flask came in handy.

Good to see you mate, you'll need to come to Athy for a game now

Cracking game at Rammy today. 2-2 v Weymouth in the FA Trophy. Bet the Rammy players are buzzing for a Tuesday night replay in Dorset.

colls turned in another superb away performance yesterday turning a 3rd place Runcorn linnets over 3-0, colls are getting better as the season goes on, also Radcliffe boro got beat at leek town which for the time being puts colls top. 

ill keep saying it, if Bolton are away and your not going its worth a wander down to watch them, good set up and set of lads and always a warm welcome,

It really is.

N-L football isn't for everyone, but the odd day out is a nice distraction.

£2 off next Sat if you show a league club season ticket.

Nice to see that ex Mounts Skip leverhulme park premier 5s centre forward scored 6 for Atherton Colls yesterday. Was gonna go but decided to go Charnock Richard instead who lost 4-1 to Runcorn Town.

Tom not one for tap ins usually scores the hard ones not as good with easy chances back then. He’s a cracking lad though, remember going to his christening, doesn’t seem that long ago.

He had a second penalty not long afterwards and smashed it down the middle to be fair. 

Sounds odd after an 8-0 but Kendal’s goalkeeper was MOM by a mile. Made half a dozen top drawer saves.

If he’d have steered clear of injures and had a bit of luck he’d be playing at a higher level than colls. Saying that think he’s enjoying his football at the moment.

At it currently stands next season we'll be playing FC United against next season. I honestly thought they'd be in the league before Salford.

I went to Chorley v FCU on new year's day. Fans are horrible wankers, DMB's with massive megalomaniac complex. I was there with my daughter & it was embarrassing how aggressive they were. It was the first time that I had to move to another  terrace for years. I wouldn't wish them on you at all despite the increased gate revenues. Hopefully they might not be in existence by the time you're promoted.

Cross that bridge as and when we come to it. If they are in our league then everyone will benefit from the increased gate revenue so that's a level playing field.

They have a custom built ground and are a commercial machine, buckets out more than Bury. Yet they are going backwards. Mind blowing.

Because they reputedly plough more than 50% of their revenue in to community stuff. Whatever floats your boat I suppose.

Astounding! That's some progress is that 

Seen them at Rammy and Chorley. They're a lovely mix of the arrogance you'd expect but also act like they're missionary workers for watching non league. Saw em threatening kids at Rammy which was a nice touch. You'll make a bomb but it'll kick off, especially with colls Bolton links. Colls are flying hope you hold onto Clegg.

Will you make some half and half scarves?

If so, I reckon Tomski would definitely want one

I've just ordered some plain black and white ones as people objected to the non-traditional yellow on the last ones.

Any half and halfs would be a one off for AthyWhite to sport, he loves all things United.

Up the fucking Colls

What he said. This season we've been a bit under the radar, today felt like the start of something. Realisation that this could actually be happening, teams taking points off one another and we grind out another win. It's getting to the dozen cup finals stage.
