Lost 2-0. Just got back from watching them. A fair sized crowd and apart from the fact it lashed down second half you can't argue with £2 a pint. The 'Kop' (am I allowed to say that) was in quite good voice actually. Not a bad little group of fans there and the banners and that were class.
Bit bizarre but I noticed the team come out kicking to their Kop first half? Is that not a bit odd? Anyway after the toss of the coin they changed round. Had a decent chance first half but their keeper pulled a magnficent save off tipping it over the bar, impressive considering he looked about 5ft 1.
Second half AFC Liverpool came out looking like they were going to give Irlam a good tonking but they got hit twice on the counter. I think Irlam only had the two chances second half and they took both of them.
AFC play some decent football but it was probably their downfall tonight, too many intricate passes trying to score the wonder goal. They had a good shout for a penalty, was similar to the Gerrard incident against Atletico (except more of a pen) but it wasn't given.
Their still top anyway, next home game is on Saturday at 3pm. I'd recommend people spare a fiver and pop down and get behind them.
