Help the Hatters/Stockport County Supporters Cooperative

HtH are looking to encourage their supporters  to get behind the Supporters Cooperative in the best interest of all supporters in these difficult times.
In this respect they have agreed that initially 3 active people from within HtH ranks would put themselves forward for election to the Coop board , in the coming elections, with the view to working with  whosoever emerges from those elections.
If elected to the Coop board, HtH will do all it can to support the above mentioned 3 in their work.




Tales from the Darkside..........

On arrival at Booth Street, an eerie silence prevailed as the Brownmobile drew up in front of the locked gates.
It was 06.15 and the darkness blanketed everything, nevertheless, despite Angie`s instruction of a 07.00 start, already the booters were lining up in droves outside the gates and beyond onto the highway- straining at the leash to get on site.


                                                           Is anybody there ?

Come 06.30 and Angie had done the biz and opened up , letting the booters loose along with a good hand of helpers and a few hopeful punters.
The first task for all was to avoid drowning in the Council`s least prominently advertised outdoor swimming facility ( the puddle).

                                                     Anyone for a swim ?
Booter numbers were down, so the task of sorting suitable sites for both sellers and buyers was consequently less of a trauma than usual.
A fantastically friendly atmosphere prevailed throughout and, despite the early start, I can thoroughly recommend the experience for any County supporter wanting to ` do something for HtH and thus the Club'!
                                          They shall not pass.....well....not without paying
                                                                                      -anyway !


That was the last Car Boot of the year, so a massive thank you goes to Angela for lending HtH her organisational genius throughout the year, and to the hard  working band of helpers who have turned out selflessly  in all weathers!
Brilliant stuff- can you wait for next year though? If you cannot then do not despair, watch out for details of the Indoor Car Boot`s that HtH  have planned  ........hmmm...lovely!

Simply Disgraceful !

Simply Disgraceful ! This day will rank in infamy    with some of the darkest in our Club`s history- the owners of Stockport County have sacked Jim Gannon…..a dreadful decision......... totally bereft of merit, and one heralded by a shamefully inadequate announcement, as insulting to County fans as it is to Jim. Champions under Jim in our last completed season, fourth in the league after as impressive a win as any Club Chair could wish to witness from his team on Tuesday, despite the interrupted nature of the current season, and clearly playing well, so this smacks of something other than prudence or good decision making and as for being rational and fair………….. Sadly the Club`s owners rather added to the anger their foolish decision has already triggered, by stating that the decision was not results based, but based on `culture`.   Jim is a proven quality Manager , who knows what it takes to make County tick, has done so many times in the past, and   has forgotten more about Co

Wrexham 1 Stockport County 2 ( Vanarama National League) 31 August 2019

“Where`s the goals gonna come from”-is a familiar refrain from those wanting County to ship in a new striker every other week, and County once again fully answered that one with “ from almost everywhere” as goals from defenders Sam Minihan and Ash Palmer secured all the points at the Racecourse Ground today against Wrexham. A 2-0 County lead at half time seemed to signal a rout, but Wrexham fought well upon the re-start and made a real match of it , albeit that an imperious display by County`s superb back line limited them largely to shots from distance. The defensive display from JG`s boys, in the second 45 minutes, if somewhat hard on the nerves, was again excellent , but a late goal to the Welshmen made the last few minutes tenser than perhaps they should have been. It all ended well however, as ,   with Festus Arthur on in place of Bell ,for his longest stretch of on the park minutes so far, and Mulhern on for Turnbull, marshalled by Keano and Palmer, the

Notts County 2 Stockport County 1 ( Vanarama National League) Saturday 23 October 2021

        Perhaps expectations were a touch excessive, after all most visits to Meadow Lane usually result in a stiff test from a home side hell bent on victory. Today was no exception to this as County were outplayed for 94 and a half minutes of the 96 played, by a Notts County side drilled to do the basics correctly, and doing just that. Almost all their passes, no matter the situation, inevitably found a man in a black and white shirt who knew thereafter precisely what they should do with it, whereas if County had no shortage of possession at times, they appeared to be largely lacking a basic pattern to work to that went beyond the sideways pass, and the occasional long ball from Rooney. This resulted in Simon Rusk`s side trailing 2-0 two minutes into four added minutes, when unaccountably the previously immaculately drilled home back line pressed the panic button resulting in a County penalty ( 1-2) and a welter of frenzied County attacks and corners, but it stayed the same sco
