Re: Barnet Thread
 

Will you ever learn. Superstitious, moi?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Not today unfortunately. However I may crack open a new bottle of Ribena to celebrate should the result remain the same. :) Nervous now McClean on now though... he has a cracking record against us.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Why are my nerves always shredded at 4.50-ish when we are playing away?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

It's the Stanley way!!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Thats it 3 PTS in the bag up to 5th:)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Won 1 - 2
well done Boys!:)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

A point away is a good return. Three is fantastic. Well in Red Men. These are the games where we used to fold after conceding in seasons gone by. A massive three points.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Thank the Lord! Sorry, Bob.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

You beauty !!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Really please for Macca. Hope he now starts to play with a bit more freedom :)

:) :) :)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Agree mate, thought the exact same thing before the Crawley game :)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Looking forward to Phil Whalley's report!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Another strong performance from Stanley, fully deserved the points. BBC stats about % possession and shots on/ off goal seem rather dubious. First half Stanley totally bossed things and 'forced' the own goal, but then let Barnet back in with a well taken equaliser. Second half more competitive but Stanley were far superior in ball control and passing. Barnet couldn't hold onto the ball, either from Stanley's pressing or ineptitude. Winner from Mr.McConville was a beauty from a narrow angle, from the right hand side of the box, past the goalie's outstretched hands, and in off the far post.
Biggest impact on the game from Barnet was from their groundsmen - no- one could stay on their feet. The pitch looked good but played like an ice- rink at times. Worrying that some Stanley players didn't appear to change their boots at half time - Mr.Windass missed two good opportunities in both halves by slipping. But he wasn't the only one.
Mohamed came on for Piero and Gornell for Windass. Stanley lost a little of their composure in last ten minutes as Barnet pressed, somewhat desperately.
But lots of good performances at the back again. Mr.Crooks was all over them in the first half and another big-hearted battling performance from Mr.Kee.
Well done to all in the team.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Great result and we dominated from start to finish.
Could and should have scored five.
A little over confidence playing from the back got them back in the game but there was only going to be one winner.
Sean's goal was a great finish with only six inches to aim for he didn't disappoint .they resorted to long throw ins and flick ons but we are dug in and carried on playing our passing game.
Lots of great performances with Kee once again leading the line brilliantly.
Crooks was excellent in possession but Connelly just sneaked it,hardly give a ball away all day.
The new lad showed up well when he came on,another asset to a strong squad,happy days !!!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Agree with Exile and F19, a relatively non-eventful game settled by a moment of quality from Sean Mc who took the ball on in the inside-right slot and fired home across the keeper and in at the far post. Stanley clearly the better side throughout, Jase hardly troubled, even their goal was down to us gifting them possession outside our box, but to come back in the second-half, get the goal and then control the game through to the end is a clear reflection of the fact that we are a decent side, there is no doubt anymore about this, the table isn't lying. The only question that remains is whether we can maintain this when the bounce of the ball robs us, or when the tougher games knock us back temporarily. On the plus side, there is depth in the squad, and Coley has been here before and knows what he is doing. An interesting winter awaits...

Re: Barnet Thread
 

What impression did yeh get of the new lad when he came on?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

He went up front replacing windass,but went wide when piero came off,he's an experienced lad and looked good. A following of 154,soon be more away than at home ������

Re: Barnet Thread
 

fair play to barnets fans.:)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Barnet have a great new ground and lots of potential but I was surprised how poor was some of their football. On the tube I asked a fan how many of their team were in the Conference topping side, and was staggered to be told almost all of them! Something must have changed and, from the comments on their web site, it seems to be the manager's instructions.

In answer to Cashy's question, Mr.Mohamed wasn't really on long enough to tell what kind of impact he will have, but he looked quick and looking to get into the game. I think he'll offer a good option for quick counter attacking down the wing particularly if, as it appeared from the warm up, he can use both feet.

Next game away at Plymouth will be a different test than today, that's for sure, but Stanley have no reason to fear any team in this League.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

I like the bit by Barnet fan 'Itsmeerc' about Stanley......
"3. Accrington were excellent. They showed us what a 'small team' can do. They kept the ball very well, much less hoofing than us, and were organised at the back. They had a couple of really good midfielders; the number 8, despite falling over about 12 times, and the number 14 were both excellent on the ball and looked dangerous all game." Who is he talking about I wonder????:p

The Bees fans are feeling disappointed, a bit like we did early on last season. To their credit though, they were quite complimentary about the Stanley and our style of football. I noted too from the BBC stats how few fouls we committed in the match!:alright:

Overall a good performance which shows the kind of ruthlesness that we have lacked in the past. Last season we could have easily lost a point or even all three when we needed to defend in those last 10 + 5 minutes!:theband:

Well pleased with the return to getting points after the loss to Oxford last week. Should renew our boys confidence too!:)
ON STANLEY ON:wave8::signbeer:

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Stats can show anything. For example a few of our shots off target were kick outs from our keeper and the offside goal was offside long before he put it in. However we did look better than them and certainly deserved the points.

Another good away day and a lot more Accy fans than I expected. Hopefully we can keep it going

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Made up for Sean, Hopefully he will kick on now!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Got to agree RR but I think he got bored with nothing to do and wanted to spice things up :)
He just has to brush up on his decision making,when to come etc.. And maybe his starting position at times is too deep,but I have no doubts at all he will become a top keeper

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Have to say, though hes done quite ok, i have always preferred our other keeper, going off what little ive seen.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Difficult one that Cashy,both have strengths and weaknesses,as long as they keep pushing each other to greater heights the team will benefit.
Think Mooneys presence gives him the edge at the moment,both still young and learning the game,happy days :)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

I reckon Jason is work in progress and has done very well in a short space of time
I am with F19 on this, he could become a topl flight keeper , still learning but very encouraging

Re: Barnet Thread
 

As an alternative with commentary, Channel 5's Football League Tonight is repeated on Channel 5+24 (Freeview Channel 55) tonight (Sunday) at 9.00 and has JC on as a guest, receiving his Manager of the Month award and sounding as optimistic about things Stanley as any Scouser can about anything :rolleyes:. Worth a watch, noting that the show doesn't seem to be available on Channel 5's i-player equivalent.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Just realised nobodies mentioned Bucko who was excellent yesterday,and going forward was different class and marauding forward at every opportunity,exciting but not for the faint hearted when 2-1 up with 5 minutes to go,but great to watch !!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Nice watching JC on Channel 5's football show. I will be happy if they leave us alone to quietly carry on up the league!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Bucko was his usual excellent self and gave Barnet a few lessons in how to attack. I think the back four (or six if you include the two other CBs not playing yesterday) really compliment each other. It's not only Bucko's skill and drive that allows him to go marauding into enemy territory but also the fact that his fellow defenders are pretty solid behind him when he does.

For me, one of the best moments yesterday was very late on, as Barnet were lobbing howitzers into Stanley's goalmouth. Their sub, McLeod, who had come on and was bustling about trying to make a nuisance of himself, went to barge into Mr. Mooney as he plucked another high cross out of the air. Admittedly not one of the biggest players, but McLeod literally bounced off Mooney and onto his backside. The big lad just nonchalantly looked around as if he felt a fly landing on him. :D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Well having watched Plymouth beat Notts County 2-0 this aft, i would say if we play to our potential, we will do them as well next sat.:)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Re: Barnet Thread
 

having read about barnet bombarding us with long throws we would have let a few in in the past but this side is made of different stuff. 3 more points to make up for the oxford game. as for the goalie issue remember we could have simpson and macey on loan thank god for what we have.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

all publicity helps. might put a few armchair fans up to the crown.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

What was the Hive like?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

One word Davo, "excellent",nicely laid out ground,good facilities and surrounded with numerous academy and all weather pitches.
For me it had a real community feel about it and the local tube was a short walk away.
Bit jealous really 😃

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Re: Barnet Thread
 

NO Pies ?????? :stupid:

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Bit of a blessing considering Pukka are crap.!!:D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

I always thought the Council owned Underhill but, apparently, it was the owner of the club who sold it for £30m for housing development and moved Barnet FC to The Hive. As F19 and RR have said, the new facilities are impressive. Nothing too over the top but more than enough for Leagues 1&2, with plenty of scope for expansion. No near neighbours to moan about balls through the conservatory windows, lots of room around the stadium, and excellent tube link on the Jubilee line.
Away fans have their own snack outlet and indoor bar, with TV, and decent bogs. Despite all that, it obviously ruined one guy's day (possibly his entire year, the way he was carrying on over it) because there were no onions with his burger! :eek:
Clearly, the rancour from the "who ate all the pies" thread is starting to spread beyond the Accyweb.
