todays game - Page 4

Three games in eight days certainly looked to have taken their toll, and just how important is Andy Todd (is Godd) to this side.
It's a good job Dick Turpin

was playing today

. I think the left and right posts at the Coppice end had a fantastic game today both playing a blinder in the first half

. When we play Southport on Tuesday (what another game!!

) it would be a good idea to have a few shots, it did seem today that the only time we strung any passes together was when we were in or around Burtons penalty area and had a clear sight of goal. There was also one or two Rory-esque type 'dives' when it would have been far easier to actually get the ball., and it must have been obvious by that time that the ref was useless and hadn't given either side anything. Still he did give us a corner that should have been a goal kick and the rest they say is history. Anyway its time to feed Black Bess and polish the flintlocks for soon we must ride out again.

2-1 fantastic

Just think though if we can play like this and win we will probably never lose again, FANTASTIC. Watch out Chelsea

Oh, and Robbie Elliot, the guy is phenominil(damn) I mean phenomanal(damn) that is phinomanil(blast), he's a really good keeper.

just got in

to summarise today - we saw proof that we are a league winning side. end of.

a team that can play that awful with a ref that didnt know what the frig he was doing and come away with 3 points deserves to win the league

in all fairness we were played off the park; but at the end of the day we did the business, burton had around 20 good attacks and converted one goal. we had 3 attacks; converted 2 of them.

We had a day off today, Robbie was woeful at the best. We left the ground about 5 mins from the end, cold and downhearted only to be told we had scored in the 91st minute. Nevermind if we can win when we play so badly we must have a chance this season

rob · 26-02-2006, 09:44

anyone who saw yesterday's game will say the same things, and full credit to burton who stopped us playing and at the same time looked very impressive.

but how can anyone leave early with a game at 1-1? having endured the 90 odd minutes that had gone before, the paul mullin goal that got us the three points will go down as one of those great stanley memories of all time. one of those split second moments of pure joy, such a rush of emotion as we see the ball hit the back of the net. we'll talk about that goal for years to come.

there's still a long way to go before we can start any celebrations, but today was yet another small step towards where we all want to be...

isn't football brilliant...

Didnt Man Utd win a european cup final scoring 2 in injury time.. summat like that.. imagine missing that cus ya wanted to beat traffic

3 points is the bee all and end all now.. doesnt matter how we get them even if we rob them (sorry rob hehe)

But I am still going to moan if I sit through a dire performance, Just like I commend if sat through a brilliant game.

I WANT TO BE A LEAGUE PHOTOGRAPHER!

baldy · 26-02-2006, 10:31

Totally agree with the last 2 posts!!

We are making history and people want to leave a few mins early just for the sake of a few mins (doesnt all add up)

Not having a go fettler but why do u leave early?

Supose if you pay your money u can leave in the first min for all i care

You can't please everybody, Rob

But that goal goes down with Hackers at Burscough, the winner at Radcliffe etc etc

I love football

Remember everyone - Burton have robbed us in the last few minutes on enough occasions in the past - about time we did it to them... If they werent good enough to finish with the amount of chances we allowed them to have, tough....

Whatever formation they played worked and I only hope that super JC sorts the chaps out for the next game beacause thay looked shattered today. And in respect they have every right to be.

Gary Roberts was totally dominated, and it appeared to me as though he was just going through the motions, and come to think of it same goes for Rommy. I have never been PM's biggest fan but in the last 4/5 games he has been outstanding and a complete role model for all the boys in red, absolute class.

So into March we go and if you read my previous posts (not that you will!!!) is looking as though it will be the most important month we have ever faced. In exactly fourteen days time we will know whether we are going to be a league team next season or just making up the numbers in non league footy again. It really is as simple as that.

As a kid growing up playing football every night on the Peel Park I always wondered what it would be like for Accrington to have a 'proper' football team.........and I really hope that after all these years I will soon know!

ON STANLEY ON

It just goes to show what a good team we have aat Stanley at the mo cos even when we play Cr*p and we were Cr*p to day lets face it we carried on going and won the game so big up the team for going until the final whistle

I have paid good money for a season ticket + a reserved seat + a parking space so if I want to leave a minute before the end and miss a great goal I bloody well will do ...... damn it

Well done, the lads (with a bit of help from above in this case). The lack of substitutions was a puzzle but Coley knew best, didn't he? Must say the deterioration in the form of Gary Roberts is worrying but then the performances of the likes of Andy Tretton and Ian Craney are reassuring. I felt sorry for the Burton team who played very well but not their fans who proved themselves, yet again,tiresome, loudmouthed losers. To see the downbeat, miserable looks on their faces as they trooped off at the end was almost as brilliant as the winning goal!

sparkie · 26-02-2006, 21:31

The guy who gave Coley the gob full before leaving early wasn't about 5'10" to 6 foot, thin, and wearing a black jacket and jeans with grey almost white hair was he?

If it was, he was the guy that Coley offered to give him his money back earlier in the season so he could get lost and put it to better use on say a new pair of specs!!!
It was very funny, however, removing the guy from the dugout area whilst trying not to laugh in his face wasn't!!!
