Re: V Everton
 

2-0 now

Re: V Everton
 

My reporter at the game now 'thinks' it's 3-0

Re: V Everton
 

what was the full time score plse

Re: V Everton
 

finished 3-0 ken attendance 413, IMHO stanley will not play a better side in league 2 this season, created more chances than in ANY of the matches i saw last season, aquitted themselves quite well i thought, yep lightweight up front, but P.Mullen only came on fer last 7/8 mins, score obviously dont look good,but stanley wern't that bad.;)

Re: V Everton
 

3-0 to everton

we played 'ok'
john mullin and Edwards were very good :D

Re: V Everton
 

Well might of not been a thrilling match really but by god was there drama after it [& no not just the notification of Rotherhams -17 lmao]

How a few young scousers can spoil it & live up to their reputation, by thieving from the club shop big style after the game & brazen enough to run out & about with nicked gear up their shirts with it hanging out, bless Jimbo for willing to give chase but with the threat of the unknown let the stewards & security to apprehend the young teen scallys, thankfully most of the stuff was recovered & hopefully they paid for it. Tho did feel dead sorry for Phil Edwards & his family walking out of clubhouse, whom talked to us for a bit saying how disgusted they were about it, giving scousers a bad name..aww they're not all bad. So bad reflection on Everton in a way.

Accrington stanley stewards & security 10 - few young scouse scallys 0 :D Good work team! no one was harmed thankfully.

Looks like somebody is a better counter than my informant :D

Re: V Everton
 

It was ok tonight, but as I've said for the last couple of weeks, where are the goals coming from? We conceded our usual ones tonight, but I still think it's going to be a long, hard season.

Re: V Everton
 

Yep thats a big prob altho we got a few shots on target sort of just none going in, Kenny was really in command of the team as i could hear & see, making sure people were in places they should be etc. Yep its going to be a long hard season as a stanley fan, certainly as goals are concerned, tho we did see a bit more passing about the pitch which was good in places. I dont know his name but the really tall one we had tonight, spoke to him after match asking if he was signing & said he hopes so :D

Blimey the Everton coach/manager wasn't half giving it large with his shouting :eek:

Re: V Everton
 

so what you r saying if stanley play like they did tonight thay mite get mid table

Re: V Everton
 

That tall lad actually played against us for Cambridge (at the Abbey) in our last season in the Conference. I'm not even going to attempt to spell his name, but in that game he ripped us apart, running at us with pace and skill. A real handful. Not sure if he showed enough tonight though.

Out of interest, as I was leaving the club shop tonight after picking up my season ticket, I bumped into David Moyes. I suppose he wanted to keep an eye on the young lads.

Re: V Everton
 

Not sure, but if you keep using text-speak you're likely to get your posts deleted. :D

Re: V Everton
 

Oh right, yeh now i remember, no he didnt play the same but useful for height for us which we need.

I knew i saw him before the match.......but as u do think no it cant be lol:D

Re: V Everton
 

Maybe becuase you were playing a team that plays football where it's supposed to be played, on grass. Unfortunatley most League 2 football is played somewhere up near the flight path for Manchester Airport :D

Re: V Everton
 

Yep born Kirkby himself.

Re: V Everton
 

off what i saw tonight with the tall lad- owts better than nowt n mullen aint much support so why not? to me he never seemed to put his head where it hurt,

Re: V Everton
 

Not that great shots either more like over our stands towards the carparks:D

Re: V Everton
 

that was only the official anouncement dave, though some die hards tell me Eric tells lies.:D;)

Re: V Everton
 

he was very good first half tht number 10! did some good touches,specialy like the one where he flicked it onto the other attacker, hope he signs for us1 but looking at fishy site tonight with the offical squad numbers thier is only 20! he was injuryed 2nd half but still put in a good effort. you could see he still wanted to give is all even though he was in pain! word is he played for swindon last year i think it were when they played against us

Re: V Everton
 

That's a scandalous remark, I for one don't believe it for a minute.;):rolleyes:

Re: V Everton
 

i agree with tin monkey,i was there tonight v everton and there were a few plusses but the usual defensive blunders were still there.yes it's going to be a long hard season,but i hope lady luck is on our side a bit more this season.:confused::confused::confused::confused::co nfused:

ACCY TILL I DIE AND THEN SOME........:alright:

Re: V Everton
 

Was it this guy then:

Fola Onibuje - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I saw him play us for Swindon under Wise. He was a handful and our inability to contain him let him free up the wing to lay on Peacock's goal.

Paul Sturrock did not want him:

SWINDON TOWN: Onibuje: ‘Sturrock never gave me a chance’

He had him out on loan to Brentford within days of arriving saying "I played striker and....." basically he did not fit in with his ideas.

Remember he said similar before he released 6' 4" Kim Olsen who he'd inherited at Sheffield Wednesday.

Re: V Everton
 

That is the bloke: Folawiyo Onibuje

Re: V Everton
 

yeh sure thats the player hope he signs he looked really good! think he got but injured in 2nd half though anyone been on fishy sight tonight does not look like he has unless they will do it in next couple of days?

Re: V Everton
 

[quote=Stanleymad;615766] I dont know his name but the really tall one we had tonight, spoke to him after match asking if he was signing & said he hopes so :D
:) His name is Fola Onibuje, 6ft 6in tall,born Nigeria,24 yrs old :) hope we sign him:D

Re: V Everton
 

So I assume that with a gate of 410 this evening, the new seats will be a little later arriving than Eric anticipated? :o

Re: V Everton
 

Wow, thanks for that! :rolleyes:

Re: V Everton
 

He looked well worth a shout to me. Ryan had some good runs and pots on goal - in fact we actually threatened their goal a few times! The two young subs in the second half up front (from the academy?) gave it a good go and looked more likely to score than anyone else we have to choose from.

Re: V Everton
 

that andrew smith came on in second half looked good had few shots one just hitting crossbar! grant played well tonight some good crosses and some good runs down the wing, we just need to be better at free kicks! i thought we played very well tonight better than burnley game anyway

Re: V Everton
 

8 clubs since 05-06!!!!! must be something about him.

He has impressed me whenever I have seen him play but his gypsy ways may see him moving on again.

Re: V Everton
 

:DMEOW!;):)

Re: V Everton
 

Eh? I was urging him all night to take a man on instead of getting rid of the ball like hot potato.

Re: V Everton
 

Didn't think Rocky played well to night

Re: V Everton
 

Thought it was a good pre season performance.

To beat any team 3 - 0 without breaking sweat must be pleasing. :o

Re: V Everton
 

agreed......

Re: V Everton
 

We conceded a lot of goals last season and we went on and on about trying to sort that out. So with 3 days to go to the start of the new season and in our last warm-up game, we start off with 3 of the same 4 that we all moaned about last time around. Makes you think eh? ;)

Re: V Everton
 

Think it was the Stanley vs Swindon game,I sat behind a scout from Sheffield Utd,who was watching him.For some reason,our big solid defenders at the time,couldn't cope with him.

Re: V Everton
 

Asked Coley about that number 10 last night, you are spot on its Onabuji or however you spelt it and he has come from Cambridge. I mentioned to Coley he looked knackered after an hour but apart from that he wasnt too bad - Crouchy-esque. Coley said that he hadnt been playing regular which is why he was knacked after 60 mins.

What did people think of Evertons number 7, JP Kissock btw? Coley told me he used to teach the lad at school - bet it wasnt football :D Im probably looking too much into it but I think we might be interested...

I think we would be better off with Evertons number 9 last night though if anyone...

Very disappointed to see the behaviour of some of the travelling kids last night especially as the whole event was meant to be a fundraiser but with the help and advice of the fans stood watching it the VOLUNTARY stewards managed to collar one of em at least and retrieved most of what was taken. They could have been carrying anything nowadays so couldnt directly get involved and which is why Mick and his volunteers did a sterling job last night and thought it was worth a mention on here - apart from that, had a good night despite the result.

Jimbo T :horn8:blower

Re: V Everton
 

Yes I encountered a car full of Sheff Utd fans at that match as well. There was a bit of banter over my allegiance to their rivals.

When we lost possession for their goal it was one of our then midfielders playing very deep who lost it and he ran virtually the length of the field.

Re: V Everton
 

Maybe that was because he's lost his squad number - it's enough to confuse the poor lad :rolleyes:

Re: V Everton
 

Npe he didnt play too great as per oh except he managed one blocking shot bless.... poor kenny had his work cut out giving him instructions & rocky looking amazingly vacant:D

Re: V Everton
 

future looks good after watching match

Re: V Everton
 

I hate to say something like I told you so but.....

I TOLD YOU SO!

Well done Coley - got your man yet again - great news if the lad can stay on his feet coz in that friendly, I thought he fell over and barged out the way very easily but he aint alf got good ball skill and dribbling qualities (Russell Payne-esque) :) Im looking forward to hearing how he does from you lot...

Re: V Everton
 

SIGN JIMBO ON!!!!!!... As a scout :)
