AND I said "Goalie a bit more solid than normal."

Lord Stiff - first 15 mins we were poor, but after that my memory tells me we were the better team, finishing the first half strongly. The ball was pinging around their area and we had a few headed chances. I do recall at half time we had had more possession and more attempts on goal. I thought Barnet were poor until we scored. So poor that I felt entirely relaxed that one goal would be enough.
Obviously I wasn't relaxed in the closing stages - ones underclothes looked like the insides of a peppered steak pie when I got home.

Good to see Beckles in the Clayton end yesterday.... not sure about him not wearing a pair of socks though. Is that how the kids dress these days?

This implies goalie normally a bit flaky. I'm saying I think he's had a good run over last half a dozen or so games.

Re: Un-buzz them there Bees !...a Barnet thread !
 

I also think hes had a good run, but yeh did say hes gone uncommented.;) which aint correct.

Re: Un-buzz them there Bees !...a Barnet thread !
 

Lord D old chap. Agree the stats confirm your overall feeling about our superiority, although I cannot agree the Bees were poor.
They looked fast, slick and had several attempts which required last ditch goal line clearances from our defence.
We were much more effective in the second half, especially after Clark came on.
My point is that, in the main, our victories or draws are thanks to our superb defence who perform heroics every week.
Yesterday's win was down to another backs-to-the-wall defensive display & one superbly hit free-kick.
Let's not allow yesterdays victory to disguise the shortcomings we still appear to suffer in midfield.

Re: Un-buzz them there Bees !...a Barnet thread !
 

Lord Stiff - "The first half illustrated the deficiencies that have plagued us all season. Barnet controlled midfield & we rarely got out of our own half."

i suggest that in order to jog your memory you head swiftly over to twitter and see from the official tweets just how on top we were in that first half. Also have a read of the Barnet forum: OnlyBarnet.com - Barnet FC Fans Forum ? View topic - Accrington (Bog) The Pitch Imperfect Match Thread . Their fans clearly agree with me as to how rubbish they were and that we deserved the win.

We have, apart from one or two matches, been the better team all season. Yes, we still have our faults.

Re: Un-buzz them there Bees !...a Barnet thread !
 

Lord D. I stand by my opinion highlighted in your previous thread, which referred to our performance in the first half, when they had us under some early pressure & we were kicking panicky aimless balls back to their midfield players.
I have read the reports on the Bee's fans forum and, to be honest, I think they are no different to what our own response would have been, had the scoreline been reversed. 'We were rubbish!'....'Sack the manager!' etc.
One of their fans did post this - 'While we were rubbish yesterday, they scored from a direct free-kick and they had 3 goal-line clearances at the other end which might have ended up in the back of the net on another day'.
Whilst their own fans are obviously disappointed with the result, I can't agree that they were a poor side. They sit mid-table eight points above us.
Fully agree we deserved the win & with your last sentiments.

Re: Un-buzz them there Bees !...a Barnet thread !
 

I certainly didn't regard em as poor, thought defo a mid table side, we make sides look better by playing 1 up front at home,sadly the penny is unlikely ever to drop with the Super one.:rolleyes:

Maybe Matty's rehearsing Michael Palin's role for a re-release of "A Fish Called Wanda"?
