I found this a very interesting article on the BBC Sport website.

Re: Former Players!

When Aaron left us in the summer of 2018, Steve Evans then of Peterborough was hoovering up players. So his move to Gillingham to be united with the well loved and respected manager is not a total...

Re: Former Players!

I noticed this on Page 1 of Wigan Athletic’s ‘Latics Speyk’ Forum ‘Some good news’ thread.

Peter Murphy’s Wigan Athletic Under-18 side formally crowned champions via Points Per Game, having been...

Re: Carabao Cup Match

Barker-Richardson may well have ‘put himself about well, chased down defenders and was trying to stretch the Sunderland defence’ but clearly he wasn’t pleasing Mr. Coleman, hence his substitution....

Re: Carabao Cup Match

I felt that Carvalho [Number 23] showed more threat in the four minutes he had on the pitch than Baker-Richardson [Number 31] showed in his 79 minutes.

Re: Anyone going to Morecambe?

Saturday’s Number 10 definitely has something about him, but his first thoughts were to take the easy route and pass back which he did on most occasions. If he could be encouraged to play forward,...

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

Perhaps terming our managing duo as ‘genii’ is bordering on hyperbole. It could be said that their blond winger was a goal waiting to happen and steps should have been taken earlier to prevent this....

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

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...

Re: Middlesbough Checkatrade EFL Trophy thread

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...

Re: Coleman Linked with Northampton

When he left for Rochdale it was probably time that he took on a different challenge, however, with Barnsley sacking Hill, it was always going to be difficult to remain there. So when the...

Re: Kayden Jackson?

Going back a bit, but Gary Williams had both pace and a goal threat. Hence the sale to Doncaster Rovers. Sadly when we bought him back he had lost both !

Re: Wycombe Wanderers Thread

Initially I was merely correcting what I perceived to be an inaccurate previous post [by baldy] that inflated Sean’s points contribution.

However, I have followed the somewhat laboured and...

Correction

If you view the fact that Mr. McConville turned a 2 2 draw into a 3 2 victory, he gained the team 2 points. Last night he turned a 1 0 defeat into a 1 1 draw, so gaining 1 point....

No Shame As Stanley Finally Succumb.

The previous FA Cup encounter was a somewhat dour affair that did not set the country alight. Alan Hanson saw little merit in the match that saw Stanley beat a 10 man Huddersfield Town team 1 0....

Stanley Hold Firm As Dunbavin Has His Night

A trip up the M6 to Morecambe always brings mixed feelings. I remember a New Years Day fixture being postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. In the subsequent re-arranged match at the end of the season...

Re: Things To Be Grateful For

Dave Thorney was in charge for that match so he could have been sacked afterwards. I was introduced to Stanley by a gentleman called Steve Moore who was an ardent fan. As a child I lived near Chester...

Re: D’Sane Comes Of Age As Stanley’s Defence Is Severely Tested

Re: D’Sane Comes Of Age As Stanley’s Defence Is Severely Tested

We all have our own view on what we regard as good sportsmanship. I am not bothered about any 'antics' from Macclesfield. I come to watch Stanley. I felt that D'Sane was taking 'the ****' in the way...

1792 people witnessed a feast of a football match. While I have no wish to extol the virtues of the opposition, Macclesfield contributed to an entertaining if somewhat fractious second half.

One person's view of the Dagenham game.

Having witnessed Stanley at Dagenham I wrote this to a friend. You may wish to read it. I did omit D'Sane's contribution which was excellent in the short time he had on the pitch.
