Re: Stevenage Match Thread

Just read a great interview on the 'Fishy Site' with centre-back Jimmy Dunne.
It was nice for him to express his gratitude to the support from the fans on Saturday.
I thought that we in the Clayton End were a bit slow in getting going in the early part of the first half but ironically, it took us to go two goals behind before we started to sing fully and get behind the team. That was a clear expression of the fans total 'BELIEF' in the team to get back into the game. This was boosted tremendously by Sean's ABSOLUTELY PERFECT FREE KICK' for our first goal at such a critical time on the stroke of half time. The Channel 5 coverage didn't do it justice IMHO. In discussion at half time with friends the feeling was that we could definitely still win the match and I do BELIEVE that the players felt the same way too.
Jimmy Dunne highlighted this in his interview and his appreciation of the support from the fans was wonderful to hear. Young Jimmy had a great game too. You could see what it meant to the players at the end as Billy and Sean and the others came up to the Clayton End to show their appreciation and admiration for our support. For me it was BRILLIANT to see the big FLAGS come out and I am sure that the players would love to see them more often. It reminded me of the best days of THE STANLEY ULTRAS a few years ago.
I really do think that the show of the flags and colour added to the singing together make the difference of that of a "TWELFTH MAN" in the critical stages of a season. So come on all ULTRAS in the Clayton End........ FLAGS.......BANNERS.....and NOISE....to the MAXIMUM starting on Tuesday v Swindon.
ON STANLEY ON
UPWARDS AND ONWARDS
