Number of increased clean sheets prove this.

Fosu I believe is better, but that's not McConville's fault is it?

I always prefered Ethridge to mooney after seeing the pre-season games,and said so to many folk, Fosu is certainly better in my view, the fact he had played games at a higher level prove that, the fact Mconville was playing poorly in quite a few games, make a mockery of that fact. thats my opinion yer entitled to yours.Wright didn't do badly in the view of quite a few people. Its you thats continued this witchunt by your sly dig comment, but thats too hard to grasp i suppose?

Re: York City Thread.

Fosu nutmegging that bloke was class, could do with a bit more strength so he doesn't go to ground so easy but hey he scored and had a great game so who cares.
Piero put loads of good balls in the box just no one there to finish them we could have had 10 !!

Bloke I really like and never seems to put a foot wrong is Hughes great Defender the games I've seen him play he's always played well.

Will be there again for the next home game can't wait.

As I said in my offering.... Today Fosu was like a WIZARD and Hughes was 'Mr Cool' at the back and Pierro was 'Everywhere' doing what we have come to expect of him. I have to say I don't like the other posts that seem to level some criticism at Sean McConville. Sean has played his part in a wonderful season (so far). You can only do your best when selected and Sean doesn't 'Pick the team'. I agree that he could have nailed a few more 'goals' but he has been an integral part of the team/squad this season and should be praised along with the rest of the players. He has, after all been in 'No Man's Land' for the last couple of seasons in lower leagues and John and Jimmy saw fit to bring him back to Accrington Stanley where he has surely played his best football. He certainly got fitter earlier in the season and he has played his part when we had some injury issues mid season. He is part of this wonderful squad and it is perhaps unfair to compare him with a player, such as young Fosu, who clearly has a future at the highest levels of English football!!! Sean has done his bit for Stanley and should be given credit. If we win promotion, he will be getting the same medal as the rest of the squad. So come on guys, stop hitting on him and get behind the Stanley squad ....All of 'em!
ON STANLEY ON
ps. I filled in the form for 'Players of the Season' today and I wanted to tick ALL of the boxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pps Coley and Jimmy should get a 'Medal' each at the end of the season too.......promotion permitting?!:alright:

Re: York City Thread.

Nevermind a medal Choirboy,knighthoods are a more deserving honour.

Re: York City Thread.

Going to party tonight!!!,can't be doing watching on live text,it really is stressful.
Believe young Fosu was unplayable today,just two repeat performances and it will prove a master stroke.
Think a couple more clean sheets will do it (sorry Redraine!!),Crooksey being injured has made us a little more solid with the holding two not as flamboyant and screening the back four ( clean sheets backs this up).
Going forward we always look like scoring.
I honestly don't think the lads are aware of what they on the verge of,nobody tell them and let them play with the freedom they seem to have KTF

Re: York City Thread.

Stanley are on soon on the football league show on channel 5, it just showed Josh's goal, doesn't a pack Clayton end look good. Brilliant today from Stanley, believe every player played well! Fosu seems like a breath of fresh air! Another stat just come on saying no one has scored more at home than Accrington! Just two more games and the lads would of achieved something that was unbelievable in August! What a journey. And 10 years on from promotion from conference! Brilliant

P.s can we stop the petty arguments over certain players, not ever play is going be every fans favourite. Every player that has worn a Stanley shirt this season or any has put in a performance and effort that has led us to being second in the football league. Now let's just enjoy this journey to league 1

Fosu wasn't available earlier in the season .....but the good news he is now, and what a contribution he has made in such a short time. That's the point. Play your best players to get the best results. So keep playing him unless he is injured, or doesn't give 100%.

yes stanleys got talent and the X factor. dare we believe. YES.

Re: York City Thread.

Another good crowd yesterday, just a shame York travelled in so few numbers, which wasn't surprising given their situation. Always like York as a city and away day, fingers crossed they battle back next season, Cheltenham have shown it can be done.

As for the game itself, thought we looked a little nervous and the atmosphere seemed a little flat for periods which added to that. Granted York looked VERY poor, (quite how they smashed Pompey last week is anyone's guess), but the potential of this squad really is huge. To play well for half an hour maximum, still win 3-0 with another 2 subs available to bring is a testament to that, fair play to Coley for building such a top group of lads.

As others have said, Fosu has been a breath of fresh air on the wing. Granted ive only been half a dozen games or so this season, but I dread to think where we could have been if he had been here for longer, another superb showing from Tarique.

Thought nobody let the team down yesterday, though Kee again to me looked knackered after an hour, and if I could have changed anything, it would have been to give him a rest and throw Gornell on for the last 30 minutes.

To top a great day off our old mate Westley was sacked from Peterborough too :D HA!

Lucky enough im working in London from Monday evening so it maybe a quick train trip to Wycombe next Saturday.
