A brave man, risking the wrath ;)

Full time will reveal all :)

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

My starting eleven would be an attacking 4-4-2 formation and these are the players I would start with:

Savin
Clark, Sykes, Nottingham, Amankwah
Longelo, Pell, Leigh, Hamilton
Bishop, Adedoyin

This midfield includes three proven goal scorers.
Longelo looks an exciting prospect and he needs to be given a chance to ‘start’ a match. I think that we definitely need two forwards at the front, Hence my 4-4-2.:rolleyes:

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

2 upfront is a must to me were at home for petes sake.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

You are missing a 'key' player from that midfield!!


:)

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Joe, I haven’t missed anyone out. Just not selected because he is not playing well enough and not scoring goals. You might say, “What about corners and free kicks?” Tommy Leigh is also pretty good with corners and free kicks. Even I could take corners and I am Seventy now!:egged:

Joe, we also need to try something a bit different!

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Oh ****, red card..Hang on STANLEY

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

And hang on you did. GREAT STUFF RED MEN.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Just how bad was that ref for sending Clarky off Cashy?

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

watch tonight the sending off didnt even look like a foul to us, the ref was absolutely USELESS.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Credit re the substitutions today who i thought made a massive difference to the second half performance. Thought Josh Woods did well harrying their back line and closing them down and love Harry Pells passion for the game of football. Overall...great result.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

none of us knew who Josh Woods was had a look hes an under 23 player, thought he did very well when he came on could even be a Dion Mark2 if he carrys on like he did today?

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

agree cashy ref was useless, josh looked like a super star in the making, run down every ball great from the young lad hope JC was impressed enough to start him next game, from what I saw the ref was totally wrong on the sending off, I presume it will be contested

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Poor first half from both teams. May as well strung a net across the pitch and played head tennis.

Much improved second half from Stanley. That essential ‘defensive’ midfielder role wasn’t missed and young Woods was a revelation; amazing just what enthusiasm and genuine pace can do when defenders are put under pressure. Well done to him.

As to the ref - what did anyone expect from Madley? He proved himself to be totally c**p incorrectly sending off Conneely against Ipswich last season, and he is clearly still c**p.
I’ll be interested to watch the sending off but, from where we stood, Clark had the ball, pushed it in front of himself and was about to take a shot when the Wycombe player dived in feet first. There was no way Clark could have pulled out.
However, thank god, from acting like he’d broken his leg, the Wycombe player managed miraculously to run almost off the pitch when ordered to by Madley, even without help from the NHS.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

It was a match of “Two Halves” today.
First half Stanley were a bit uncoordinated and lacking real ‘drive’.
Stanley continued their generous recent play again giving opponents multiple chances to score, which Wycombe did twice! At least we got one goal back through Adedoyin.
The second half was a total contrast as Coley and Jimmy did a double substitution at half time bringing on Harry Pell and young Josh Woods. It certainly changed the match as our energy levels and physicality certainly improved.
We fully deserved to win the match with two great goals for Sykes and Pell.
The Clayton End was superb again and we were bouncing as the match was ending.
Then the most ridiculous and totally wrong Red Card ever seen awarded by a referee who, in my opinion, had not had a particularly good match. In the EIGHTH minute of supposedly SIX added minutes, Clarke was in possession of the ball and lined up to shoot. Clark was tackled at right angles by a Wycombe player running across Clark’s attempted shot. How on earth the referee could see a red card for Clark is totally beyond me. If a foul was to be called it should have been against the Wycombe player for flying in with no chance of getting the ball.:eek:

Just one other negative issue from the match was the throwing of a flare on to the pitch when we scored our first goal. Our super Stewards did some great work and rooted out two young teenagers and led them out of the ground early in the second half. The stewards seemed to be looking for a third protagonists and an announcement was made later in the match for the Stanley supporters to follow the instructions of the Stewards as we were leaving the ground. At the end of the match though we departed in the normal manner. I feel that we really need to install a video camera behind the goal in the Clayton End pointing directly down into the central area of the terrace which would allow the senior stewards to pin point the idiotic culprits. I think that the two young lads escorted from the ground today were not regulars as I did not recognize them at all.
However, in the final match analysis, Stanley came back to score a superb victory against a really good side.
I have always been a fan of Gareth Ainsworth since he became manager at Wycombe. But OMG, he used to frustrate me when he was playing for them because he scored so many goals against us in important matches.
Stanley WON today though, to give us three important points in our initial quest for League One safety, and in our seemingly unlikely outside chance of getting into the Play Offs.:theband:
ON STANLEY ON.:theband:
KEEP THE FAITH.:theband:

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

You are more than welcome to start a matchday thread again Andy ;)

:)

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Where was Harry Pell then Andy?:D

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

two blanks and now 3 goals in the next. which stanley will turn up next week. think the season looks better for fans who only go to home games. those who travel have my sympathy.

never know why madley is refereeing anyway even at our level. on the premier league list, leaves or was pushed from it and a season or two later he walks back was never a patch on his brother anyway. as for the wycombe player he might have pushed saving the NHS to another level.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

We have that many midfielder,s to be honest I forgot all about him 🙈

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Choirboy and all

Yes we have CCTV (his is constantly recording) in all areas of the stadium. Sadly we are having to use these camera on home fans rather than at most ASFC home games on the away fans.

We will review this footage so we can identify those responsible for this unacceptable behaviour.:mad:

The announcement at the end of the game to follow this instructions of the stewards was part of a serious medical emergency which was being dealt with by our crowd medical staff. We didn't want the NHS ambulance and their staff to be impeded as fans left at the final whistle.
Thank you to all who helped as they left the Wham

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

I'm afraid that, at least as seen by me on TV in slo-mo, an appeal against the red card would be a waste of money. Mitch's first touch was heavy, the ball went well ahead of him and the Wycombe player collected the ball before Mitch collected him. Probably unintentional with his mind on a shot, but would be classed as reckless.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

just watched the Liam Atkinson video of the match and the red card looked a ridiculous decision

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

true. that reckless word has really been a get out for refs as they do not now have to think of intent before making a decision. a good or a bad thing. think we all have our opinions where possibly they change depending on which side is the wrong doer.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

To me the standard of REFS in ALL divisions has really gone downhill cannot understand why but most are CRAP.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Yes, I suspect you’re correct, Chimer. From behind the goal Clark’s first touch didn’t look so bad.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

The standard may have gone down but they do not seem as bad if you go to a non stanley game as a neutral.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

have to disagree with that i watch all matches on tv and all divisions it is to me.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

The game is a lot faster now, the Ref's are not. As for the liners, spec savers.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Think one thing that refs have improved on is their physical fitness that has been pushed so much by the powers at the top instead of man management. We can all remember the tubby looking refs of the past who rarely kept up with play but never missed much and were more able to sort out situations before they actually occured. They had feelings for a game and not just a knowledge of the laws of the game they could recite backwards. As for the linesmen, there duties should be written in stone and not to the whim of the ref in charge.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

Aye,
There were more personalities in them days, but certainly some whims. Clive Thomas had a very personal take on the laws for instance. I remember that he somehow got into his head that he couldn’t blow for time with a player about to take a corner but would do so when the ball was in mid-flight, which caused some problems in the 78 WC, as Brazil scored just as the signal came. And he had a few more whims.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

my main gripe with thomas was his attitude when he got a bang average div.4 game. he showed no interest from the start and seemed to let anything go unlike in a top tier match. think harold hackney was one of my favoutites. he was a guest speaker at a refs ass. meeting when all this long warm ups came into being. when someone asked him what he did in the warm ups his reply was first five minutes of the half lad. next question. one of the reasons i took up the whistle was david ellary thinking i could never be that bad after seeing him live. doing the exact opposite to what he would have done helped me no end.

Re: Wycombe home thread.
 

yes, that funny movement he made at the kick off just to get noticed.

Is Kettle his love-child? :eek:
