OK I hate to get beaten BUT even you guys would have been up in arms if that had happened to you...NOT once BUT twice....

Even the radio guys felt that both decisions were hard and questionable.

Sorry but the Red card was fully deserved, go in with your elbow & there should only be one outcome.
That said, it was possibly the worst Stanley v Morecambe Derby I have witnessed, at least in the first half. It certainly got more spicy in the second - we even gifted the Shrimps a goal but in the end a fully deserved win for our boys.

By the way CC, thank whoever the morons were who decided to trash our toilet facilities on their way out, not as badly as Fleetwood did but no need

I had a perfect view of the elbow nowhere near winning the ball and unfortunately in this day and age a raised elbow connecting with the face is a straight red watched it again on video last night and it was a correct call. Has for Ripley,s post match interview surely he should be carpeted for his complete shaming of the official,s called our players not a decent word to say about his old club, glad we didn't sign him back overweight slow diving down for Coyles goal and the free kick and his distribution terrible 3 straight to Jensen it would have been 4 but for Astley,s untimed chip over Jenson. We beat them fair and square without a striker on the pitch we hit the post and should have had a couple first half could easily have been 6-0 and yes you need rid of any moranic so called fans or they will drag you into the gutter.

We've ALL got a small section of so called fans who are basically idiots and on behalf of us older and i hope more reasonable minded fans then please accept my and our apology for any damage that may have been caused by some mindless idiots.

However both Fleetwood and Bolton 'fans' take some beating in the idiot and moranic class.

The red card was correct IMHO. The Morecambe player made no attempt to get the ball, and his eyes were focused on his Stanley opponent. He simply fore armed Coyle fully in the face. Dangerous play…….a 100% red card.
Stanley had lots of possession through the first half and I thought that our boys played some lovely passing play going forward from the back. However, we didn’t pose a threat in the final third.
Once we got the first goal I thought that the game was there for the taking. The red card changed the pattern of play as Morecambe banked two defensive lines across the pitch and were hoping for one lucky breakaway, which they got. Stockton’s presence played a part in us gifting them an own goal. Why Morecambe are not starting him is beyond me! With the extra man though it was only a matter of time before we regained the lead. The excellent Mitch Clark played my favourite move, getting to the goal line and pulled the ball back towards the penalty spot. Coyle finished the move well but Rodgers was also there ready to do the same. I call this move ‘The Golden Zone Move’.
In the end we ran out easy winners and we could/should have scored more goals.
On the way home I couldn’t believe the comments on Radio Lancashire which were clearly made by one of the ‘Morecambe Bay presenters’.
ON STANLEY ON.

Choirboy,
It was Clark who received the forearm smash.
As for the so-called summariser on Radio Lancashire (Neil Mellor, was it?) I presumed he worked for Morecambe. You’d think there was only one team on the pitch. Perhaps in his eyes, there was.
No doubt if he viewed the ‘highlights’, he, along with Morecambe’s captain, should be apologising to the officials for their myopic views of, and tantrums over, the sending off.

I thought Harvey Rogers had his best game of the season. so far yesterday!

Could be wrong but I think the summariser on Saturday was Paul Weller NOT one of our own or yours for that matter.

He reported it as he saw it and was an impartial observer.

And he got it wrong just a mention on the 3rd goal after watching it again your players just apart from Rawson stopped chasing back and just watched bad sign shows a lack of belief Adams is such a negative coach.

You’re right about which Weller it was, CC.
I was at the match so didn’t hear his commentary. But my point about him, and I suspect that of Choirboy, referred to his post-match summary. He just seemed to keep saying he didn’t think Morecambe played badly and that they didn’t look like a relegation team.
Having only seen them once this season I can’t argue the first point, and hope he’s right about the second (still looking forward to the day when there are ten or more Lancashire teams in the same league).
But he barely mentioned Stanley in quite a protracted discussion on the match.
Maybe he’s after Adams’ job?

He might well have been impartial but the view from where the press sit doesn't always provide the best view possible - he might've thought it was harsh but he got it wrong. The footage clearly shows the incident & there's no doubt it was a red card
