Where is Josh Andrews?

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Morning Haggis-he ain't here...

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Got subbed at Doncaster last week so maybe a knock? He does get some rough treatment

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Good morning Mrs Mad. :)

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Great start. Onya Jacko

1-1 poor defending by Stanley

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Real shame that we defended so poorly at their goal. Otherwise, pretty positive. Adedoyin a positive surprise for me. We deserved more than that one goal imo.

2-1 Crawley.......scorer given far too much time and space scres from outside the box.

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Thats it I'm afraid. Penalty to Crawley and Brad Hills red card.

^%%$&*&^*&*&^&(* now I'm getting REAL ****ed

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

3-1 Crawley game over.

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Was the card deserved???, or more inept reffing?

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

I’m no expert, but wasn’t that the kind of double whammy refs should avoid under the new interpretations. Poor defending certainly, but red?

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

And we’re expecting what from refs…?

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Commentator said there was no need for it to be a red & had mentioned earlier that the ref was in the centre of things far more than he need be

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

******. VERY grumpy Sunday now here down under.

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Thanks Mrs M

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

So, apparently Josh Andrews was taken ill last night & ended up in hospital this morning with some sort of infection - hope it's nothing too serious

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

That is bad news

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Having just watched the “highlights” (sic), we certainly gifted their first goal.
Poor defending with the central defenders being drawn towards the attacking player, like flies to a web, and leaving their No.9 totally unmarked.
Can’t expect anything else from most League 2 refs than that red card. But both Gubbins and Pickles did really well in the recent absence of both Hills and JRB, so good luck to them.

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Agree about the first goal, far too easy.

Second should have been saved.

Penalty is just a clumsy foul/coming together and a penalty at most should have been the outcome...


:)

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

1. Agree, particular shame it came from a Stanley corner where we tried to be clever while well on top ....

2. Think it would have been a very very good save to keep that one out (imho, from the seats in the corner rather than behind the goal).

3. Presumably red card as last man?

First sighting this season, and for 7 minutes thought I'd be in for a treat. But after the equaliser it was a very even game with both sides giving the ball away far too much. Thought we won a lot of 40-60 balls :) but usually then gave it straight back :mad:. Ref was a bit of a homer :rolleyes: but couldn't argue with pen, or our goal being disallowed for offside.

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

We've appealed Brad's red card - fingers crossed we're successful

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Unfortunately Brad's red card has been upheld & he's suspended for one game - not sure if that'll be tomorrow's replay or next league game

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Guessing it is tomorrow, as they have been pretty sharpish with the appeal...???

I would rather he played in the League :)


:)

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Yes. I think red cards apply to all games whilst yellow cards are competition specific. I've just checked on the EFL suspensions page which says the suspension ends after tonight's match.

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Didn't Tommy play in the first Doncaster match before his suspension then kicked in for the Crawley EFL game?

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Is totting up, different that one match red???

:)

Re: Steve Evans' Old Club Match Thread
 

Yes. Tommy's 5 yellows only applied to league matches. Similarly, any yellows picked up last night don't apply in the league. Red cards apply across all competitions except, I think, for what's now the car showroom trophy which for some reason doesn't count as a first team competition.
