Well what a game and a pleasure to meet Exile from Stanley at half time.....The first half Stanley had two cleared off the line and a great save by the keeper to palm one onto the crossbar,they shaved the first half.How Stanley didn't win this game by a bigger margin than Morecambe is beyond me.I don't remember going to any game with more clearances and blocks off the line.After the game I went to the programme shop for a programme for my lad and there were 6 old timers there,they just couldn't believe how they( in their own words) robbed two points off us.All were in agreement that Tom Aldred and the Rhino were outstanding players.Young Gray had a great game and he would have scored at least two goals if he could have kept his feet.....every time he cranked over at pace his feet went. I don't know who sorts the studs out for the players boots but it wants addressing .Naithsmith powered into the box with his first touch after coming on turned sharply and went flat on his backside...surely with modern boots this can be alleviated to a great extent.Whoever said on the Dagenham Board that it was a boring game must have meant he was bored waiting for Stanley to score, in a nutshell all the team were up for it and every single player put a full shift in...the coaching staff must have been pleased and deserve a big pat on the back.As for the match stats Stanley had more shots on target than the total shots shown,as I said earlier a pretty even first have shaven by Stanley but the second half Stanley had much more possession so where the 45% comes from baffles me have you ever seen a game 13 corners to 4 and had 10% less possession.The officials were awful for both sides a lot of blatant errors .THE FUTURE...It would be great if we could keep JB and his coaches for at least another season along with most of the squad as I can't see anything but automatic promotion next season the way this team is maturing into a well drilled outfit.I am still buzzing from Tuesday and can't wait to be on my way to Exeter.... another cracking game I expect.
