Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

Thanks you Liam Nolan for the injury time winner against Boro's U21 team. Maybe a tinpot trophy but that is one big step towards Wembley. Just Blackpool and Wigan to beat for the next rounds. On the road to the smoke with John and Jimmy

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

To be honest it was well worth a fiver tonight. McLeod, Scott brown and wilks all did there chances of getting into the starting team no harm. Second half, Stanley where the far better side and deserved winners. I don't like playing u23/21 teams but if we get a chance of Wembley it will be worth while.

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

Great result, another late winner. Believing you can always score late and get a result is one of the qualities of a successful team. On previous form, coley won't make changes to starting 11, but it's reassuring that we have some decent players ready when the injuries/suspensions start to happen

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

What a great game of football & well worth the £1 per goal it cost for admission.
The Stanley young-bloods were more than a match for a very talented Boro under 23 team.
To come back twice from behind to win the game says everything about the spirit running through our squad at the moment.
How McLeod & Sousa don't make the first eleven every week is a mystery based on tonight's performance.
McLeod in particular was so effective down the left wing, creating numerous goal scoring chances for both himself & the other forwards & Sousa's speed & pin-point crosses caused Boro real problems.
As I said earlier - Wembley here we come!
Perhaps the 'non-believers' will come crawling back if we reach the semi-finals?
After tonight, anything is possible!

I would like to see our first two goals again. (Scott brown and wilks strikes). Looked good shots from the Clayton end.

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

It was an entertaining game and our youngsters played well against an equally talented young team from Middlesborough.
Brown took his goal superbly with a well hit low drive into the bottom corner.
It was great to see Stanley more or less playing a 4-2-4 formation with Edwards and Wilks playing up front side by side and Sousa and McLeod playing wide like old fashioned wingers. Thus we gave away the midfield in general but young Johnson had a good workout and played well both defensively and offensively.

I think we just shaded the match in the last 15 minutes when our wingers finally unlocked the resolute Boro defence.
I thought that the referee allowed a bit too much pushing and leaning from both sides which disrupted the flow of the match at times. Edwards and Wilks were fouled endlessly in the second half but were only awarded free kicks on a couple of occasions.
Edwards was very unlucky with a super overhead kick which rattled the bar after a wonderful run by McLeod, which included him running on even after being fouled before getting in a great cross for Edwards to try the spectacular shot.
Credit to the younger fans in the Clayton End tonight as they managed to maintain a good noise throughout the match which created a more competetive atmosphere for the players.
Well done "young 'uns" both On the pitch and on the terraces!
ON STANLEY ON

It was a most enjoyable game and the Stanley ‘reserves’ were surprisingly adept. There were no weak links. Edwards put a shift in, but luck failed him on every occasion. A strong, excellent header was saved by their keeper’s body. While McLeod was good, Souza I thought was a revelation.

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

Whilst the forwards rightly stole the limelight last night, I thought both Dallison & Sykes were outstanding.
They won 90% of incoming high-balls & went close several times with headers from corners.
Young Ogle was also worthy of praise & Scotty (Dynamo) Brown inspirational in midfield.

Their blond right winger was causing numerous problems early on and it was he who fashioned their first goal. Subsequently, the full backs switched wings and he fell into relative obscurity as he was forced to come inside, rather than race to the byline and then pull the ball back to his waiting forwards.

Who swapped from left to right, and vice versa?

Forbes and ogle. Ogle was the one struggling with blond attacker on our left side before swap.
