How do we get I follow for this game?

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Same as any other IFollow game

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Serious question, are Colby and Pritchard injured?? :)

:) :) :)

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Pritchard is got a knock at Burton, dont know about Colby.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Think so

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Cheers lads :)

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I'll buy my match pass to watch on iFollow tomorrow. More money to the club and a chance to see more of the squad.....can't wait.....:D

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Conneely also has a knock and may not be risked.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Thanks for the help, never used it before. I have signed up today for tonight's game.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I’ve just registered and paid for tonight’s match but cannot figure out how to watch. When I click on watch now it just takes me to a page asking me to subscribe.

Update:
It now appears, despite following the instructions to subscribe to the Leeds U23 match, and paying for it, I have no access to view it but do have access to view the Peterborough game on Saturday. Which I doubt I can use. If this is the wonderful world of iFollow, the club can shove it.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Uwakwe starts......its a strong Stanley side......first start for Seamus....I think 3 centre backs again driving the formation......come on Stanley...

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

And precisely where can I find “live video”?

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

1-0 Uwakwe

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Press on matches top row game should appear live video his underneath.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Was just going to ask the same!

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

good start for our Chelsea lad.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

2-0 Great shot from Burgess put the lad up front lol.

Uwakwe looks the business

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

3-0 We have someone special in Uwakwe great strike.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

3-0 Uwakwe

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

You and me too.
Having spent a very frustrating half an hour it now appears I have a pass for Peterborough’s game, but can’t change it to tonight’s match.
When I subscribed for the Leeds game I did notice it had the kick-off as 18:00!
Is it because, according to that, I was trying to subscribe after the game was supposed to start?
Anyway, whatever, I am totally unconvinced by iFollow and will not be bothering with it again. Life’s got enough stupid frustrations without adding to them.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Have to agree looking and ouzing quality.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

4-0 great passing play.

4-0 Charles

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

4-0 gonna declare i reckon. Charles.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

5-0 Cassidy

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

This young Leeds side falling apart now can see Stanley making a raft of change's.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

To be fair they say you have to beat what is put in front of you but for Leeds to send a team of youth players devalues the competition to me, but on the plus side we have scored 5 in one half so will give confidence going into a difficult game Saturday.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

It happened to me too. I'm out on Saturday but, fortunately, my daughter can use the pass. Not impressed.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Sama on for Butcher and Spinnelly on for Charles.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Did manage to get it in the end, I panicked when it didn't work.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

only 2 changes.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

6-0 lol

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Cassidy

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Congrats to Uwakwe great debut!

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

7-0 hat trick debut

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Amazing what you can do with a good left foot!
Six out of seven, so far!

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Great Debut will get better probably when he gets used to the team.:)

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

It was the EFL who devalued the competition when they included these under 21 teams in it in the first place but agree that Leeds sending a team of 16 & 17 year olds is extracting the Michael

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

agree i will not watch these under 21 games on i follow am 100% against these sides being in the competition.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Like the look of Sangare as well played some lovely through balls tonight seen all the new signings get minutes, quite a few of the lads out injured apparently Bishop back training which is good because that's an area we look a bit thin on the ground, time for the real thing Saturday.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

leeds playing a young side dont matter to me, the fact we kept going to the end is what pleased me.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Agreed Cashy...you can only play the team in front of you....minutes on the pitch for players before Saturday's big game.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Did Leeds misread U-21 as U-12? Oh well, who cares :D

Though I do think perhaps we should have saved some of those goals for Saturday :eek:

On Stanley On!!

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Out of the 14 lads who got game time yesterday, 8 could still play U23s football.
I don’t mind having the academy teams in the competition for various reasons (good test for them, us, potential loan targets etc) however agree that Leeds fielding an 18s team isn’t the best circumstance.

One of the fortunate ones to have been last night; shape looked more fluid tonight with players interchanging and covering each other. Burgess looks a really good signing, not afraid to get forward, solid in the tackle and vocal. Cassidy and Charles has some good link up play, Uwakwe oozed skill and composure. Think we missed Conneely Saturday just to act as an outlet instead of playing long balls, and it was clear last night that having a holding midfielder in the side will be a huge benefit.
Some really good competition for places now in the squad with Finley,McConville, Pritchard and Bishop among others to still become available.

Viva Accy. Could we....

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

..What a 'yee beaut' result. Had my cow cockie friend, who is a Leeds supporter, ringing me within minutes of full time making excuses....been kicked in head one too many times by his cows I think....

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I like the look of this system as I have said before last season we were wide open to the counter attack as we constantly played down the flanks, one important position in this system is the attacking midfielder behind a mobile front two I thought Sangare fit it well last night but we have options there as well, Saturday big test for our young side against Posh.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

don,t blame leeds, blame the system for it being allowed. think the majority of league 1 and 2 fans were against it from the outset and i cannot imagine even leeds fans getting too upset about last nights result apart from a few.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

totally agree. too many teams more or less declare nowadays once they get 4 goals and more or less just play out the rest of the game in some non contact type training session.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Totally agree, they should never have messed with the structure of the competition but once they did they should have made sure that rules were adhered to by all involved.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

No one learned anything from last night least of all the young Leeds lads just fed to the wolves.
Disgraceful to be honest that could destroy some of these lads psychologically.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Josh - I don't think a 16 year old centre forward (who looked 14) was ever going to trouble the back three do you ? Utter waste of time. Why enter the competition when clearly they weren't going to take it seriously ?

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

It totally wrecks the integrity of the competition but as far as the youngsters from Leeds are concerned apart from getting a thumping they will have loved that experience I know I would have far better for them than an age group game or any training routine. Not much good for us except for stretching the legs and the confidence booster of scoring goals will have done Cassidy and Uwakawe no harm at all.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

[QUOTE=Twenty Eight; Why enter the competition when clearly they weren't going to take it seriously ?[/QUOTE]

thats back to my old arguement that you should apply to enter a knock out competition in the first place and not be automatically entered. if a club is willing to lose sponsorship money by not entering then so be it.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I bet Uwakwe is gutted about the game last night :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Must be sick as a parrot after scoring his first hat-trick.........

:) :) :)

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I wonder what the Leeds supporters think of their young lads being sent to a game without a single player with real league experience I doubt it gives them confidence in their academy being able to attract keen able youngsters to the club in the future.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Well I've spoken to a couple of fathers of the Leeds lads today and they are seething.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

That's parents for you I,ve seen them come to blows over kids in sporting events of many kinds , it's the kids themselves who should be speaking up.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Yeah ..... these 16 year olds should speak out .....
Oh my.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Stop mollycoddleing them their young adults I was working full time at 15 like I have said before if there good enough they will make debuts never stopped Ball and Peters and we won the big one which on last night's efforts against Denmark we are a million miles away.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

well if they cannot speak for themselves they are 16 going on 10,

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Ian Holloway gave debut last night to 15 year old school boy Louis Boyd who scored for Grimsby on his debut good old Ian Holloway and the lads parents were delighted.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I accept that many young players have come through and become world class players but most of them were blooded in teams that had a fair number of experienced players.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Stanley may have eased off 2nd half a bit however put 7 past Bolton so it wasn't that much of a humiliation.

Most of these lads may never play against a professional team if it wasn't for this competition, so will have something to look back fondly when they are playing in the Northern Counties East or West Yorks AFL and working in an office.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Correct.
The parents were seething because the intention in this tournament by Leeds was allegedly to blend youth with more experienced players plus use the over age rule instead of which we can see what happened.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Surrounded by seasoned pros.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

If they are so incenced and seething I suggest they take their collective children to another club then.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

just hope leeds learned their lesson about the game. it begs a question though, did they send their lambs to be slaughtered or did the club arrogantly think their kids were better than little old stanley.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Apparently the under 23,s were in a training game against the seniors as there doesn't seem to be any set rules about ages in this competition Stanley benefited in the goals against column and picked up £10000 for the privalige.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Yes its that simple isn't it Andy.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

To be honest I don't really care about a few parents hurt feelings they need to grow some and realize what a privilege it is for thier siblings to represent such a club with history and heritage.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Not sure why we seem to be getting excited over this game. Our players benefitted from more game time together. Any problems there are seem to be with decisions and actions carried out by Leeds United management.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Thanks for that my point in a nutshell.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Barrow and Leeds drew 2-2 tonight, with Barrow picking up a second point by winning the penalty shoot-out. The result means that a win against Blackpool will see Stanley topping group G.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

Sorry, the table's wrong on the BBC site. We'd still go through if we beat Blackpool but not necessarily by topping the group, although Barrow would have to beat us by at least 8 goals to then overtake us.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

If Barrow beat us I'd be mortified but if it was by 8 goals I think I'd go into permanent hibernation - just wouldn't cope:eek:

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

If we beat blackpool by 1 or 2 goals then Barrow need to beat us by a 5 goal margin to overtake us.

Only if we won by 7 or 8 tonight would Barrow would need to win by 8 plus.

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

I'm struggling to understand that. Currently, our goal difference is 7 and Barrow's is nil. If we were to beat Blackpool then ours would be 8+. Surely, Barrow would then have to beat us by at least 8 goals to better our goal difference. But, first, let's beat Blackpool!

Re: Game against Leeds u-23,s.
 

If we are playing Barrow, every goal they score against us is worth 2 ;)
