Morecambe Red - Stanley only made two fouls in the first 60 minutes. Maybe if your players had such discipline the ref wouldn't be forced into awarding free kicks in dangerous places, booking players and the like?

Let's get this straight, neither the ref or the liners are ever on Stanley's side, our 3 ex-players on the other hand - they all know where their heart lies, once a (Stanley) Red, always a (Stanley) Red

Well played agents Murphy, Winnard & Molyneux

Go on Girl, big handfuls of salt & keep on rubbing!

Well, if Morecambe Red will keep coming on here & carping what can you do . . . . . Couldn't resist, way too tempting

Due to continued registration problems Erico Sousa has been released. Hopefully he can now get some regular football

Tranmere Rovers have signed Portuguese winger Erico Sousa from Accrington Stanley for the rest of the season.
Sousa, 22, joined Accrington on 13 February, but registration issues meant the former Portugal Under-19 international did not play a game.
He made 30 appearances for Slovenia's NK Celje last season, after spending the 2013-14 season at Barnsley.
"He has good pace so will add something to the squad we already have here," Tranmere manager Micky Mellon said.
Mellon was on the coaching staff at Barnsley during Sousa's time at Oakwell.
Tranmere are third in the National League, two points off the automatic promotion places with 10 matches left to play.

So how do tranmere get him registered but not us

AccyMad · 22-03-2017, 19:10

Good question - maybe they haven't yet & will run into similar difficulties?

I wonder if registration = Money????
Didn't take Micky Mellon long to snap him up.
It will be interesting to see if he helps Tranmere achieve promotion?

Would Tranmere have the same problem as Stanley with them playing non-league football may be different rules.

or was it he wasn,t that good and the registration issue was just an excuse to give the fans.

He looked more than good on the video clips posted on here.
You don't offer someone terms if you think they're only average.
Perhaps it has more to do with his regular position - LEFT WING!
Who would have to be dropped to give him a go?????

Exile on Spencer St · 23-03-2017, 13:10

Bruna had the same fatal flaw - a left foot.

Christies Child · 23-03-2017, 13:24

Have to admit as hard as it is that on the night Stanley where far superior than my lot and deserved their victory.

I'm no Coley fan but have to admire how he appears to have changed his managment style during game time. Rather than being vocal as he used to be he appears to stand back and let the players do his talking for him.

Still a long way to go in this season yet and from our perspective we appear to be safe but the off field goings on are having a detrimental affect on the players and their futures as MFC or elsewhere.

As for the ex Stanley players the only one who reall y is off his game is Murphy but maybe his injuires are finally catching up with him. As for the otehrs they certainly had an off night to be sure.
