Pifco - just to clarify.
You agree with Andy’s comment that the lads out injured - Baxter Sykes Pritchard Conneely Bishop Charles - wouldn't have made any difference ?

Also early season losses of Sangare, Kaba Sherif and Sama and more recently Uwakwe all who played a few games each before injury! That makes nine longer term injuries by my counting. Do correct me if I am wrong. Could be adding another one or two after today? Don’t forget that we were without Sean Mac for the early part of the season too!:hidewall:

All adding up Choirboy probably one of the worst injury crisis we have had in recent years, which makes in my mind and others it's irrelevant thinking would the result today or any game be different if you had your " best 11 "" available who by the way don't always win, it's testiment yet again to Coley and co to assembly a squad on limited resources to achieve 53 points and possibly a few more yet this season, beaten today by a side who got gifted 2 early goals got their tails up and gave us a football lesson. We learn hopefully and move on patching up the wounded and give it our best shot.

Football throws up a lot of interesting debates on any clubs forums, you get teams with their "best" players in on a losing streak and fans screaming for change give so and so a chance, never please all of the people all of the time that's what makes the game so great. Great fun on here the debates are lively and varied but I never take them to seriously after all it's just the beautiful game.

You are unbelievable Andy so lets give you the chance to put things right.
Do you stand by your comment that all the players missing today - Baxter Sykes Conneely Pritchard Bishop Charles wouldnt have made a blind bit of difference ?
No waffle - the answer is yes or no.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 
think yesterday was just something to forget and move on as fans and the club. just lets make sure it does not happen again and the injuries just clear up quickly. at least we know that coley and jimmy will still be in their jobs on monday unlike some FC Kneejerk clubs where their taxis will be ordered now.

thats been our problem since christmas time. so many players not up and nowhere near the standard required when these players are missing. hope next seasons budget is not spread as wide as this years. smaller squad on more money please.

Problem is at least 7 of yesterday,s starting 11 are contracted beyond the summer Sean,s contract is up can't see him being let go who knows not sure about Harvey,s position or Ben,s Smyth obviously not ours difficult not a lot of wiggle room.

It will be the same for us next year. Similar resources. Maybe more from extra match day income. But not substantially more. Same manager, similar squad size to this year. Just hope we have enough fit players to fullfil the next 2 fixtures. 53 points on the board, what a great season. Just glad we are not a Hull, Sunderland, Peterborough, Portsmouth or Charlton whose fans and the media think they are still punching below their weight....

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 
My biggest criticism isnt related directly to this game but is highlighted by it. As fans we have little or no idea about injuries and how long someone is out for. Whats the deal with Sykes? What was the deal with Sykes? Now and again we get a snippet of info but its rarely a categoric statement

Twenty Eight, I'm sure you're right about many things, but I doubt I'm alone in getting really p'd off with your apparent need to have a snipe at every post Andy makes.

Just give it a rest, please!

Back to the title of the thread............ spot on interview from Coley :)

Refreshing - and not just because it is Coley - to hear the truth, beaten by the better side, nothing to do with the awful pitch, good strikers taking the chances on offer :)

I was listening to something on 1089 on the way home from work today - cannot for the life of me remember what :D - but, they were saying something about some chap just being honest and saying it like it was, rather than trundling out the standard party lines....

Just imagine 25 years ago, somebody telling us that we would be getting beaten 7-0 in a League 1 game, we would either have a) said they were mad and called an ambulance, b) ripped their arm off and said "League 1 - yes please!!" ;)


:) :)

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 
As usual I have been ruminating around yesterday’s game, and one thing kept returning to my thoughts, that being the demeanour of every Stanley player shown throughout the game.
From the word go it was obvious that collectively they were exhibiting quite clearly that they were suffering from pressures that were not only affecting the skills needed to match a superior foe, but also preventing the creating of a team spirit to achieve that end !.
So was the teams way under par performance due to the players having to shoulder this extra pressure placed upon them by the absence of injured team mates, I rather think so !.
It is true to say ,I am reliably informed, that if there is one immotivating element to be found in a demanding situation, then this is the presence of unrecognized pressures to deal with it !.
Therefore friends, instead of creating our own interpersonal pressures via unnecessary, and at times difficult to understand posts and replies, let’s show some understanding for yesterday’s team, who appeared to some as unfit for purpose but had the aforementioned pressures placed on their shoulders.

Gosh !.. this is turning into one of my protracted Novels / Sermons (?).
so back to my G and T and Cricket !..:alright:

Thanks can't always be right it's called having an opinion like Piers Morgan who resigned because some did,nt agree with it , clocks moved forward like me this morning.

Don’t post as much as previous years,but can someone remind me what league we are in and how many points we have !!!
Unbelievable effort from everyone at the the club .
Losing class players every year and still progressing!!,couldn’t work it out ten years ago and still struggling today!!
Results like this happen,and Coley will look for a response,but playing twice a week eventually catches you up and even more so with injuries to key players.
Still recall the squad not being paid for four months and still nearly making the play offs !!!,that’s what Accis all about,people should have a head wobble and enjoy the ride :)

Work on the new bar and facilities in main stand starting this week, more upgrade,s to the pitch to come, training ground lease agreed, Coley and Andy Holt discussed potential transfer targets yesterday and still on page one in league 1 Dave Burgess,s words today what a club continuing in the right direction long may it continue home Good Friday here,s to 3 points.

Sorry Twenty Eight. The answer is not "yes or no". It is "they may have done - or they may not". We will never know.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 
one thing about this thread is unlike a lot of clubs messageboards at least we are realistic about the defeat. on some they,d want their chairman out, manager sacked and have a mafia type hit on certain players. doubt anyone connected with either club on saturday expected the result in the same way as the bristol rovers and bolton scores were. it what makes people fans and players players. we,d get bored equally if we won easily every week as we would getting hammered the same.

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 
Peterborough also have a habit of scoring plenty of goals against us at home December 2018 we lost 0-4 to me as bad if not worse than being beaten away lineup that day wasn't bad:-
Ripley.
Johnson. Ihiekwe. Hughes. Anderson.
Clarke. Conneelly. Finley. Barlaser. McConville.
Kee.

In 10 league meeting,s with Peterborough aggregate score is 33-10 in Posh,s favour that's an aggregate of 3.3 goals to 1 to them quite a poor statistic for us.

It's even worse if you just look at away matches! :mad:

RR !.. I know a clairvoyant who might, and I mean might, just be able to help us to discover the truth behind all this surmising. But she's not operating at the moment due to unforseen circumstances !.
As to Saturday's game I think we can safely say that whoever plays for the Reds.. with or without our ' Number Ones '.. they might win or they might not !...

It's medication time !. :rolleyes:

Think I can categorically say that our boys will most definitely not win on Saturday, but neither will they lose or even draw - however, what the result will be on Friday is anybody's guess :D

Re: Peterborough away thread.
 
this is sounding like a john hollins post match interview i always remember from years ago. it went something like, if we score more than them we,d have won, if they scored more than us we,d have lost. as they scored the same number as us we managed a draw.
