Re: Lincoln match thread
The difference with subs today was that we had some decent players on the bench.
Pritchard was great when he came on. Clark was excellent. New lad up front will be ok when he settles. Don’t yet see anything that good about Grant. We were at sea a few times in defence but conditions weren’t great. Nowt that wrong with the ref... two or three incorrect calls, and wish he’d made their player leave the pitch when he cut his head. Just a waste of time for everyone. |
Re: Lincoln match thread
Wasn’t lucky enough to see the game but agree, Lord Didders, that, for the first occasion for some time, I thought the three subs strengthened the team. Not to say the subbed players didn’t deserve to start, but great to have quality on the pitch and the bench.
As to Grant, how quickly has Shrewsbury faded from the memory? ;) Well done to the squad and management for a terrific performance. https://www.skysports.com/watch/vide...on-4-3-lincoln |
Re: Lincoln match thread
Grant is an excellent league 1 player with experience on his day can be unplayable obviously you haven't seen much off him.

Re: Lincoln match thread
What a thrilling match it was today v Lincoln City. We managed a victory 4 - 3 but IMHO the result could have gone either way.:idunno:
The first hour of the match was played in swirling windy conditions with some short showers. However, after an hour 'Storm Dennis' arrived with a wallop and the conditions for the players simply became awful! To both teams credit they tried to play football on the ground but even in the first sixty minutes as soon as the ball went up in the air mistakes and misjudgments were inevitable. After the storm arrived it required a change in tactics and initially Lincoln handled the situation more effectively than our boys. Coleman certainly got the substitutions right today. The new lad up front was getting nothing out of his opponents in the second half and bringing Pritchard on was a masterstroke. So was the lads goal, in front of us in the Clayton End he controlled the ball well and pushed it five yards ahead which allowed him to accelerate into his right footed shot which went in like a rocket. We all knew it was going in as soon as he struck it!:theband::jimbo: Bringing on the other two worked so well too. Bishop reinvigorated our physical presence up front and Finley was an added driving force in midfield. It was great for Seamus to get on the score sheet and the winner from Finley was a well constructed team move. The winning goal sent the whole of the Clayton End and Main Stand into raptures of delight.:wave8::rose8: It was a difficult match for the referee and whilst he didn't get all his decisions correct he was spot on with the addition of 10 minutes added time at the final whistle. There had been five substitutions and three stops for injuries the last being the longest at more than 5 minutes. The atmosphere at the end of the match was just BRILLIANT as the Stanley players came up to the Clayton End to share the celebrations with the Stanley FAITHFUL. We BELIEVED all through the match that our players and management would get this right today and they certainly did.:theband::s_gupjump:s_gupjump Finally, I want to pay MASSIVE CREDIT to Andy Holt for spending the money on our pitch last summer. The pitch was just superb and held up so well even when the worst of 'Storm Dennis' swept in!:alright::alright::alright: ON STANLEY ON:jimbo::jimbo::jimbo: BELIEVE and KEEP THE FAITH:theband::signbeer::drink::rose8: |

Only player with a bit of passion when we were losing, rallying the other players, keeping heads up. Did the dirty work, was happy to drop deep when needed to keep BA-S higher up the pitch. Put himself about both on the ground and in the air. One of our better players today... |
Re: Lincoln match thread
Agree with earlier comment, credit must go to Andy Holt for addressing the deep lying drainage issues with the pitch.
An expensive task but one that already looks to be paying for itself. Lincoln disappointed to be leaving with no points. |
Re: Lincoln match thread
My opinion, I don't think Bobby Grant was amazing today but I think he is a very good signing (his goal against the shrews showed his value).
Regards the game, WOW! great match played fiercely by both sides. either could have won it, Lincoln there usual physical self, dangerous particularly at set pieces, But are guile was a match particularly second half. Clark's dribbling caused Lincoln lots of problems, his link up play with callum was another highlight going forward. Mixed day for bursik, incredible save near end of first half but a mistake for there second goal. Agreed quality of and use of subs made a big difference for Stanley. Pleased we kept singing and believing on the Clayton end even when goals went in against us. With our tricky run in these wins are putting us in a great place to secure league one footy for another year and not worry about those late season fixtures. On stanley on.

What a game! Agree with Cashman, referee wasn't fit for non-league or even park football. Lincoln could, and perhaps should, have had at least 1 man or possibly 2 men sent off for the all in wrestling that was going on. How he could book 5 of our team and only 1 of theirs is beyond comprehension. i thought i had gone to watch a football match in atrocious conditions, not mud wrestling in some backwater arena! so 3 wins on the spin for the first time in a while, Rotherham at the Wham next Saturday, lets hope the weather gods smile on us for a change. |
Re: Lincoln match thread
Why do Stanley keep getting poor performing officials?
What is the FA playing at? |
Re: Lincoln match thread
Ha ha! You see a player who everyone seems to be raving over for one game, express an opinion that he didn’t seem that good and all the old moaners have strokes.
Cum on, he wasn’t amazing today. Missed an easy header for starters. Certainly didn’t seem in the same league as Finley or Bishop. As a matter of interest, why has he been at non league Wrexham? |
