Bury Match Thread
 

Looks a massive test this one!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Its a big un, have a fancy we will get summat from it though.:)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Realistically, you have to think that a point out of this would be a decent result ........Then we can go on and do it unto Tranmere the week after

:p

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

I will always take an away point!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Suprised to see Ryan Lowe down in league 2, always rated him

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

A decent player.....there for the £££ apparently. They're spending big this year and with gates of 3500 one wonders if it will end in tears. A massive test no doubt.

I'd take a point. I would expect the QPR keeper to debut unfortunately for Mr Lynch.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Being that we now have 3 keepers available, I personally would stick with Lynch. The kid from QPR seems a little stringy from what I saw of him at the Luton match, but there again if QPR rate him, then he cannot be all bad.personally, I think Lynch should be offered an extension to his contract and let the QPR keeper return. We have 2 decent keepers plus one in reserve, albeit injured at the moment. As for today's match, I cannot see us getting anything from it, but, a point or more would be welcome!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Why send a keeper back untried....He could be another Bettenelli,plus you don't know what the loan deal is ....remember Richardson...free if we played him...£750 a week if we didn't.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Ha ha OO, when I read the first line, I thought you were going to say play all 3.... :D :D

Agree, a point will be good :)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Bit of good news for us, according to bbc Nardiello is out injured - of course I feel sorry for the lad but we need all the luck we can get today

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Need to stay tight and compact and not open the game up too early.
Don't give Lowe any time or space.
They have a couple of quick lads out wide,so our wide men need to double up.
Don't lose concentration and we may get something KTF

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

1-1 HT.

Sounds like we are playing quite well according to twitter.................

Naismith with the goal..... I knew it !

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Where you hear that Chubbyman???

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Our best display this season imho, shame about the result, Hit the post/crossbar corner wi a great naismith free kick,his best display by a country mile this season, one headed off the line, 2 cast iron penalties denied, Bury should have had the dirty pig number 27 sent off first half no question,was only booked n 2 mins later shoulda been booked again,fer a touchline foul, still used to this wi us.:rolleyes:

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

How did Nicky Hunt do, Cashy? Is the formation worth persevering with or would it be better for him and Buxton to swap positions, seeing as it sounded like Rhino was skinned for one of their goals.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Nicky was subbed second half, as far as i'm concerned will NEVER make a midfielder. But Joycey i would have subbed fer a Bury Black Pudding he was very poor,imho.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Bury came out in all white and thought they were Real Madrid.
They played three at the back and played little triangles in impossible areas.
I really thought after twenty minutes we would get something as playing with a back three there is spaces out wide and Naismith and mingolas eyes must have lit up ( both had good games)
The new keeper played well and grey up top also.
Now the negatives, our fullbacks can't defend (good players) and this will cost us as it did again today.
I watched closely and both were on fire to get forward ( no need as naismiths on fire),when possession is turned over they are out of position.
I think toms first five touches were in the right back channel,and there equaliser was rob being dragged into the left channel.
We will never get clean sheets if this is not addressed,saying that Buxton once again got rinsed for the winner,just as he did against Luton .
I haven't got anything against attacking fullbacks but how many assists have we had by this ?
We haven't the players to score two+ goals to win games!let's get back to basics !!!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

I am struggling to see how we have won that (as a Bury Fan) apart from two bits of skill from Lowe with the back heal for the first and Mayor with a wonder goal (poor defending though)

Stanley will be nowhere near the bottom of the league if they play like that each week! Very impressed with you lot.

The Ref was awful for both teams!

Not sure about two pens! and I think if a player has got a card for an off the ball incident it should have been red rather than yellow that Atkinson got.(although maybe this is a bit of payback seeing as Stanley usually have someone sent off at Gigg)

Naismith was impressive as he was in pre season against blackburn (I came to watch as I live in Accy)

Good luck for the rest of the season (apart from when we meet again)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Have to agree about Buxton + Mustoe woefully lacking pace defensivley that,s why I think JB tried 3 at the back will be punished against good sides thought Bury were poor having spent so much I think our blg problem is finishing sides off should have been 3-1 at least half time Gray really should have scored.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Good post! How about Hunt and Buxton swopping positions and picking Lids, who can tackle and has some pace,at left back when fit. Would that help to solve it?

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Agree with others that this was definitely our best performance so far this season - Kal, for whatever reason raised his game & really showed what he can do when his head's in the right place.
Bury, to say the amount of money they've spent didn't look all that & although they were much better in 2nd half I still can't figure out how we got nothing from the game.
Was also puzzled as to why the ref didn't add any time at all for all the treatment needed on Rose's 'injury' in added time but glad the lad had a miraculous recovery as soon as the whistle was blown :rolleyes:

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

It's a difficult one Redraine,hunty and lids are defenders who can join in,were I think Mustoe and Buxton are offensive players who aren't as effective defending.
Both have a place in football but for me at Accrington,we need a platform of clean sheets to build on.
I think only fitness will stop Buxton playing in midfield as he struggles to get back we out of position,and in midfield there's no resting.
Back to bury game,there Three at the back and centre mid were the worst I have seen this season and they played better when they went down to ten men and a back four --- just like us !

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Kal in my view could play at higher level. i'm sure, if someone could just get his head right, He wasn't on Rangers books cos he had no potential.? If such a person could be found it would be an big benefit to the lad and Stanley. As to why the ref added no time on, i agree wi pud, he was (another) complete knob fer both sides.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Cashy,I think Kai's performance/goal in the first half was more to do with putting on a show for a team that's made a bid for him !
He wasn't as effective in the second half when they made their subs and altered their shape,but would image did enough for an improved offer from bury !!.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Have to disagree mate, have seen him play superb pre season,also last season,its consistency he lacks fer me, sod all else.:)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Jb's post match interview gave me the impression he was resigned to losing Kal. What a sickener for him, as didn't he put up his own funds in order to bring him in?

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Didn't say hes not got ability,what i meant was he hasn't set the world on fire in the first four games (go subbed and benched),so it was a good time for him to put a performance in to remind a club that wants to double his money and sign him !!.
He reminds me so much of John Miles ! :)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Aye but unless hes totally dumb, he can do much better n Bury (no disrespect to em) in my view.:)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Yes, Red, that's what gleaned from the aside from Mr.Beattie about what's in the club's best interest.
For that reason, I also tend to agree with F19 about Mr.Naismith's possible motivation for this first half performance (which I didn't see, but can believe it was good if Cashy thought so).
I hope I'm wrong on both counts and that Kal continues to bag a.....er,....bagful of goals for Stanley.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

My only concern Cashy is the bigger the club the bigger the expectations and he seems a confidence player who would struggle to deal with it.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

One word "no"

Kal was a free agent when he joined us and no fee was paid for his services.

The last fee ASFC paid was for Sean Mc and please no more posts on that one!!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

The fee was to the taxman to lift our transfer embargo. While it was paid in order to get the transfer of Naismith completed, we would have had to pay it anyway.

For what it's worth I don't think we should be rejecting financial offers for players that have to be carried through most matches. In our position, application of talent is required for 90 minutes, not just when you're in the mood.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

I'd sell Naismith tomorrow if it meant we could get an experienced lg 2 centre midfield player and a target man in. It was nailed on he was going to perform yesterday in front of his potential new suitors.

There's 1000s of players at all levels of the game who could be fantastic if their attitude was right - they are the players that get managers the sack because they always get a 2nd chance because they could be match-winners, but rarely are.

Buxton and mustoe's distribution is awful.

Need to get Winnard and liddle back in the team, Hunt to right back and desperately need a c mid, another forward and a keeper

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Got to agree about Lids frank,good defender and has been very unlucky

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Lids is injured, must be somewhere near fit now? been missed imho.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Problem is that I doubt if you could buy a new floodlight, never mind a good midfielder and striker (both like gold dust in League2) with what Bury allegedly offered.
I agree about selling, but not about giving away a potential match winner at a discount.
Also agree will be glad when Mr.Liddle is back to fitness and offers a defensive option.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Lids has also shown in the past that he can play the ball-winning role in midfield. He won't win many headers but, unlike Hunty, is young and versatile enough to learn positional sense.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Cant believe i missed that Shaker !!.
Didn't Lids play CB for Cooky when injuries kicked in?,so playing centrally would be a problem.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Rumours at our end that Proctor + Cash for Naismith. I am unsure if we need him but I think Proccy has no future at Bury and Flickers has already said Stanley had been enquiring about him (nothing set in concrete)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Fail to see how Proccy can be Match Fit? aint played fer months as far as i know?:confused:

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

He wont be match fit Cashy,but sources tel me he was top of Burys fitness tests pre-season,so i would t think it would be a problem,he was always one of the fittest at Acci

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

should have posted "wouldn't be a problem" !

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Proccy coming back if nothing else would certainly give a feelgood factor back to the terrace. And at least he'd bother to clap the travelling supporters unlike certain people....

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Its looking a possibilty to me, going off what J.B.s just said on fishy.:eek:

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

crying out for a player like Proccy!!!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Thats a racing cert we need one like that.:)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

That'll high praise coming from someone who's said previously he's not Proccy's biggest fan

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

I aint but realise we need a bit of steel n proccys got it by the bucketload.;)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

The bucketload has landed :D

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

But John Miles was a better singer !!!.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Miles Better ;)
