Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Ta di i had forgot lol

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

If they got their way the curfew would be 12 till 1 with a half hour lunch.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

No idea Joe, wouldn't think so as pubs are shut anyway - maybe certain members of the visiting team have their own curfew times though?? :D

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Maybe Mr Barton has a TAG on his ankle

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Just a bit of light hearted info- the only time I ever played at Fleetwood was, I think, 1963, it was a rotten day, raining, sleet and bl----dy cold. By half time there was a puddle/lake in the middle of the park about 30ft by 10ft and 4ins deep, the ref made us take a free kick from the center of the puddle even though we couldn't ground the ball, we nicknamed the ball Bob. This was before suds were allowed and at the end we had 9 men and Fleetwood 8, the others, including our manager Jimmy Hinksman were cuddled on the side line. Happy days.

Re: Fleetwood thread.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Seamus is a bit under the weather so staying home as a precaution.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Just heard apparently a few Ill in the camp.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Growing very slowly into the game wouldn't be surprised to see Sean on half time or shortly after.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

First half, I think we have suffered from Fleetwood pressing us when we are in posession in are own quarter, Forcing long uncontrolled balls. We grew into the game as the half wore on. As Hendry said uwkewe not having a good game struggling with burn's pace.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Andyd.......growing into the game.....thats the most optimistic summary of the first half, you could have made......we haven't been in it....

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Poor stuff from Stanley thus far. They look like they are expecting the opponents to give them as much time to control the ball as they require.
Waste of Pritchard having to cover for Uwakwe - will McConville take over as wing back and let Pritchard get further forward?

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

1-0 charles.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Yes Charles 1 up.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Good 3 pts tonight.:)

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

I was spot on Fleetwood weren't that good it was obvious McConville would come on for Uwakawe I said as much on twitter, Barclay another good sub played very well when he came on. Coley obviously give them a hearful in my opinion at half time and we went back to one of our strength,s pressing them into making mistakes and creating pressure ourselves well deserved win.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

You don't put a player who hasn't had a competitive game since January at wing back, Sean was brought on purely for his experience, plus Pritchard is excellent in the wide role.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Sorry, Andyd, forgot the ;)
Much improved second half. Well done lads.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

:jimbo::jimbo::alright:

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Well it wasn't pretty, games against Fleetwood seldom are but at the end of the day we got the result - doesn't really matter how. Well done for sticking at it & winning all 3 points lads - highlight of the night however was seeing Sean back on the pitch - welcome back Super Mac :)

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

I have to agree with AccyMad, it wasn’t a pretty match at all. Also agree that the best event tonight was seeing Sean MAC back on the field.
Neither side seem to have developed any clear cohesion of the sort that produces slick passing moves. Both sides seemed to cancel each other out too. Fleetwood with more experience in their team had more possession in the first half but Stanley’s set up of three at the back and wing backs defending when needed restricted any real threats on our goal.
The substitutions made a difference for Stanley and we matched our opponents for possession in the second half. Barclay made a big difference when he came on with his mobility and strength on the ball. Sean MAC did get some passing moves going but understandably he was cautious when at close quarters with opponents! Sean will need a few matches to regain his confidence but it is a real boost to see him getting fitter and stronger and back in action.
The goal came from some persistent centre forward play from Colby Bishop. Colby did some great defensive work late in the match too.
IMHO our best player in an average team performance was Ross Sykes. Good physicality, making some good defensive clearances when needed and a threat at times going forward.
Stanley are still a ‘Work in Progress’ but we are in a good position in the league and we are definitely moving forward with a fairly young side with the potential to do well this season.
A good three points tonight. Well done the Stanley!:jimbo:
ON STANLEY ON:wave8::signbeer:
KEEP THE FAITH:drink::drink:

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

3 points and a clean sheet against a decent side.

Could do without the disgraced Hendry on commentary. Grimshaw may be available, and he can talk.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Well done u men in red-made my workday sooooo much better. :)

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Andyd.......Love the optimism.....you should he a "spin doctor"....what a night last night would have been if we'd been there........I was dancing round the room when we scored.....three more points closer to safety......:dancedog:

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

complete opposite to saturday for me. deserved something at ipswich but not 3 points last night. glad of the result however as getting one over on barton kept me watching.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

agree thought those 2 were off the boil last nightand to me the subs were the right ones,

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Re-watching the ‘highlights’, Stanley were a tad lucky to get the goal as Charles appeared to shove a defender in the back onto the ground.
Still better outcome than him being for sent off for less.

He ain't happy.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

That pleases me no end,crap happens to everyone it happened to us when charles was banned for nowt, just shows what type of man Barton is, though we didnt need showing really.:D:D:D:D:D

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

About the same as Coley's thoughts, he said Fleetwood will play much worse and win this season...

Coley was very honest in his post match interview last night...

:) :) :

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

I'm so happy that he's unhappy :D

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Who gives a monkey to finish in the top end of this league you need the rub of the green more often than not at least Coley was honest saying we happen didn't deserve all 3 points. Barton would be the first to keep his gob shut if boots on other foot, he will be looking over his shoulder big ambitions at Fleetwood he will be shown the door if results don't improve.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

"Get Grimmy on!"

That takes me back :D

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Yeah, but we are.
The result is even sweeter if it upset the likes of Barton.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Bad loser just sums up Joey Barton, what a moaner.

Two players deservedly in the Sky Team of the (Mid)week:

This time we've heard of them both!

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Well done Toby & Cameron - well deserved

It's funny though, if Fleetwood played half as well as Joey Barton thought - where are any of their players names??? ;)

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Exactly my point in an earlier post when I said even though Fleetwood were on top first half I didn't think they played particularly well, their chances were either well saved or they were scuffed, playing poorly not converting chances.Coley saw this as well in my opinion and we pressed them and scored more than them name of the game 3 points just shut it Barton.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

lets hope we do the same when gillingham come to town to upset nice mr.evans and his gobby mate rayner.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

he is more than a moaner, he is a ----------------------. wish i could say it in print without a banning.

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

Do you mean he's a proper Tuesday, Wednesday And Thursday by any chance :)

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

That’s a good ‘un, Accymad. Never heard of it before. But from now on the likes of Barton will be described as “a right nasty mid-week”

Re: Fleetwood thread.
 

There's another similar one Exile but it spells out too rude a word for me to use :)
