Source: M.E.N.FC UNITED have vowed to find the supporter who began the crowd trouble at Altrincham that has strained relationships between the two clubs.
A minor scuffle broke out at the Golf Road End of the ground during the friendly on Wednesday night, and appeared to be caused by a FC United fan, who was ejected by stewards.
Altrincham reacted strongly to the incident, saying it is unlikely they would want to play FC again, and are threatening to prevent the use of Moss Lane for any games involving the rebels.
The Red rebels are expected to put out their strongest possible side for tomorrow’s Supporters Direct Trophy clash with fellow fan-owned club AFC Wimbledon at Gigg Lane, kick-off 3pm.
New full-backs Matty Taylor and Alex Mortimer, and striker Stuart Rudd, are likely to get a run-out in the game which is a return of last season’s Trophy match at Kingsmeadow which the Wombles won 1-0.
FC officials will say a big ‘thank you’ to their Ryman League counterparts. General manager Andy Walsh said: “Without the help and guidance of their chairman Kris Stewart, FC United may never have happened.”
