Re: pre season friendlies
 

unfortunatly some do. a win and its at least the play offs a defeat then the season is over and pointless going.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Perhaps the customers who havent seen us kick a ball for 5 months?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

They,ll be praying for us to care when whatever crowds in this crazy world are let back.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Gents;

I take your point; but sadly unless we follow the rules and regs of Boris; then follow the rules of those clubs who are spending a fortune to host games; our invites will be withdrawn.

The costs to stage a behind closed doors games, even at training grounds are horrendous.

Oldham had security staff on yesterday, as did Crewe to prevent unauthorised access.

I have also heard of an EFL club demanding that there non-league opponents players and staff have Covid tests prior to playing the game; at the non league clubs expence!!

We can't do too much at the minute as the admin, commercial and media staff are still on furlough

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Thanks Mr.T., which if this carries on can only add expenses to clubs that can ill afford it and when furloughing ends a lot of clubs will face the ugly possibility of making administration and other staff redundant sad state of affairs unless fans are allowed back in full before long football unfortunately will change forever.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

anything stanley play in people want them to win its called supporters.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Is this definitely being played?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Kipax has just posted on Facebook that he's there photographing his first Stanley game in 5 months :)

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Stanley 2-1 up

Re: pre season friendlies
 

2-2 now.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Halftime Stanley 3-2 up Cassidy and Allen both on scoresheet.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Should read 3-2 down sorry.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Full time Southport 4-3 Stanley Perritt with 3rd Stanley goal, only friendlys but 11 goals conceded in 3 games?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Little wonder that we are trying to get a keeper sorted out.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Have no fear, not just the keeper but trying new systems and new players.
inexperienced defence, no Harvey, Ross or Yosser, mix of youth too.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

In years gone by I used to go to countless preseason friendlys mainly to kop the ground, but believe me Coleman hates losing any game as I do and he won't like that goals against column, and if you think it doesn't set a marker for the season it does players can earn a starting place based on these games and with the small squad we are going to be operating with some of these so called youngsters at 20ish need to be stepping up.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

agree about the so called youngsters. if there is no real improvement in any of these players i do think its time to move them on. there has been many like marcus carver who initially showed some promise but never made it at league level.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Looking at pictures of last night's game there is one of a big black guy must have been a trialist any ideas anyone ?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

And they will.
Don't read so much into it.
Baffled again by the negativity on here and on Facebook.

Be proud that 9 ASFC Academy products featured.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

so called youngsters??
are we all blind by the significant improvement from Toby, Zehn and Reagan over the last 12 months.
apart from that, we have under 18's coming through.
both Dan Martin and Kevin Spinelli are highly rated by Coley.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Not negativity at all more passionate support great that academy players are moving towards the squad that's why we have one but players at 20+ really should be pushing for starting places if not good enough ship out because this season with a small squad will be a real test at league 1 level.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

If you're highly rated that's one thing if you're good enough at 16 you play Andy Scott was that highly rated we give him a 3 year deal he never played a league game.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Our squad this season will be stronger than last.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Bobby Grant played for first team at 16 best youngster we had at that time good player but such negativity aimed at him when he returned last season some fans don't know what a good player his.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

That will be the test always looking to improve but if it's going to be stronger these players have to make the step up.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

i reckon we are no where near a regular league team yet,giving kids a chance to step up to me is correct thing to do. cant understand why people are whining at this point in things? i prefer to wait and see what occurs before things kick off.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Interesting George Newell son of Mike Newell got a hat trick last night for Southport Marcus Carver got the other.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Match report. Again, it tells us little that's not already been posted on here:
https://southportfc.net/report-hat-trick-hero/

Re: pre season friendlies
 

how many players over the years have been called the ones for the future or there improvement over the last 12 months have been emmence. not just at stanley but every lower league club in the country. next thing you see after a few unused substitute appearances is that the future for them is some obscure non league club. this is not being negative its just a situation that happens with loads of young players every single season.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

To me the old saying of doesn't matter how old you are it's how good you are at 16-17 years old you stand out a country mile if you're going to make it, Best, Gasgoine, Metcalf who has sadly just passed at Rovers, do I need to go on. Would love nothing more than every player from the academy to make a first team place but we live in the real world. Stanley have stated that the squad will be small this season and we probably are only signing Burgess the rest will be loans including the keeper hopefully John and Jimmy will be successful as I,m sure they will be John is bigging up promotion why not.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Talking of keepers looks like Preston are ready to loan Ripley out Salford favourite,s would love him back.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Rippers would be ok; but do we know what he currently earns ?

And do we know how much wage contribution PNE want?

I'm 99% sure of both figures and another NW L1 club are now looking elsewhere after making a firm enquiry

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Probably 250000 annually just dreaming.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

It's not what he earns its how much PNE want as a contribution but will still be too high I suspect.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

woulda been interesting to know what players were used in these friendlies?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Savin, Burgess, Maguire, Barclay, Connelly, Pritchard, Cassidy and Allen played first half at Southport going off Kipax,s photo,s.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

You got me going then. Thought we'd signed Aaron Connelly from Brighton.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Add Charles to the list.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

GUESS again!!:)

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Oh do I have to?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

More than £5000 a week for being 3rd choice games gone cracker's.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

No wonder we will be turning to the youngsters.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

22 aug bolton wanderers

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Pity we aren't playing some at a lower level could have gone along.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Any streaming available?

Re: pre season friendlies

And is anybody up for player-spotting?
https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/spor...on-accrington/

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Oh no, bless him - hope he's ok

Re: pre season friendlies
 

result of him flying into a tackle that would have been worthy of a straight red card according to Bolton report.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Lost 1-0 to Rovers' U23s. Match report is more informative than previous ones:

Away to Salford sat 29th ko 3.00pm. No fans , of course but a live stream on You Tube.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Keeper Lieutwieler, Tomlinson and the as yet unidentified big lad defender have played in at least 2 games wondering if all 3 will be signed, keeper IMHO would be a coup before his move to Blackburn from Shrewsbury he was one of the best in league 1.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Jayson Leutwiler hasn't played much since his days at Shrewsbury in League 1 in the 16/17 season. Only appeared 6 times while at Blackburn in cup competitions.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

The form of Raya who got the big money move kept him out will still be good and at 31 in his prime.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Is tomorrow,s game against Salford the last warm up before season starts next Friday if so could we see a strong squad for tomorrow.?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Ryan Cassidy from the pen spot makes it 1-0. Very good penalty, looks a promising player.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Full-Time Salford City 0-1 Accrington Stanley! Good performance overall, some good defending from both teams I thought. Burgess had a solid outing against familiar opposition. New lad Cassidy looked lively, great finish from the spot. All in all a decent turnout!

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Yeah, we won one :) well done lads

Re: pre season friendlies
 

whom was in goal tom?

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Apart from a few unnamed trialists, new names to me were keeper Liam Isherwood (took over last 15 from Savin), Jack Bolton and Dan Martin. Development squad perchance ?
Liked trialist A who played right back in second half.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Yes, trialist A caught my eye too. Big fella with a bit of 'presence'. Burgess looks a quality player and Allan had some pace. Great pen from Cassidy. Goalkeeper looked a tad on the small side but did ok.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

isherwood is the youth team keeper bolton and martin both appeared on the bench for the first team last season, whom are both from the youth team

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Toby Savin was in goal for most of the game & Liam Isherwood from our youth squad took over in last 20 minutes or so Cashy

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Toby must be 6 foot 3 at least

Re: pre season friendlies
 

If anyone missed it, the full match is still available on Salford's YouTube page:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CK80c96cCZ0

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Just watched the game Burgess could be an astute signing calm and excellent left peg, trailist A looks useful and thought no:- 18 trailist B I think put some good tackles in and looked a tidy player.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

The system used yesterday was 3-4-1-2 which gives a narrow playing style not as much use of wide men was working guite well until both sides played with 10 men which ruined the game as a spectical and through the system a bit, maybe a good excersise for when your reduced to 10 men.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Been racking my brain over No:-18 knew the face Andrew Tutte ex Rochdale, Morecambe decent player wonder if we will sign yet another midfielder.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Sorry, meant the keeper that finished the game. Don't know his name. Others say Isherwood.

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Liam Isherwood played the last 15 minutes

Re: pre season friendlies
 

Friendly at Nelson on Tuesday, 15 September, with 300 fans allowed in:
