Barnet match thread

We where excellent going forward today. Jackson and kee link up and work so well together. Mcconville delivery of ball and then Jordan Clark (whom I thought was light weight early in the season) is now one of best performers. Good attacking wing play with fast and mainly accurate passing and crossing. The different midfield, brown was very good on ball. Felt at times the cover wasn't great for our defence today for example there goal no challenge till edge of box. To be honest I felt Barnet always had a goal or two in them against are defence (as an 11). The actual defenders I can't really fault. I felt the penalty looked harsh on us but justice seemed done when it was missed. Now we are on form we need to keep picking up the 3 points. The game was indeed a fitting tribute to young jordan moseley.

Just managed to get WI Fi.
Out in the Ribble Valley on the sticks at the wedding do. Great win Stanley. Onwards and upwards. Free beer and wine on tab so I am certainly going to take advantage! ON STANLEY ON
.
 
Anyone take a screenshot of "As it stands" at 3.35? 3.36 would be too late .......:D
 
According to Coley (the bits I heard when the microphone didn't resemble a pneumatic drill) Brown and Johnson were the dogs bullocks.

Anyone not yet remortgaged their house and put it on a Stanley promotion?
 
Ye Gods!
For one brief minute at 3.35pm, Stanley raced to the top of league 2.
Within minutes, Thorniley conceded a clumsy penalty & nearly spoiled the party.
Chappers, now elevated to super hero status, did enough gymnastics on the line to put-off Campbell-Ryce, who smashed his spot kick against the bar. Phew! What a relief.
However, T'was all in vain, as Notts County had already scored to burst our balloon & keep us off top spot.
What injustice! What tragedy! What calamity!
Stanley now only in 2nd spot in league 2! This is simply not good enough!
Am I serious?????? You are joking, aren't you????
STANLEY UP TO 2ND!
This was a game we've seen so many times before - with one exception!
Today we converted all our chances.
Barnet didn't play badly & actually bossed possession for long periods.
Perhaps the scoreline flattered us, but who cares? Today, we were simply unstoppable.
Well done you lovely boys!

Just one tiny criticism of your account Lord S, it wasn't Jordan Thorniley who gave away the 'penalty', it was Scott Brown - saying that it was one of the softest pens I've seen given but in the end justice was done courtesy of the crossbar :)

Mea Culpa Accymad. My apologies to Jordan Thorniley.
Agree it was never a penalty, but it seemed to happen in the blink of an eye & even BBC sport got the culprit wrong.
Scotty Brown made amends by going on to have a great game.

Thanks Accymad !.. like last Saturday I thought that Jordan was again the unsung hero in our defence... good hard tackles and almost faultless distribution of the ball, meant that little or no threat appeared from Barnet's right flank. I have noted also that he is now more assertive, accurate,and vociferous in directing those around him !.. Not a bad quality in a defender ?.

Nothing more to add, unless to repeat my appreciation of our management who have put together and maintain a more solid unit than we have seen for a long time !.

ON STANLEY !.. ON TO GREATER THINGS !.

RTF.
 
teams like barnet, crawley and dag and red have been banana skins for us and its nice to beat one of em by a good score. the best game at home for awhile with mid fielders looking to pass forward instead of backwards made it a lot more exciting game. as for us being only 2nd i,ll settle for only third come may.
 
"Clark has probably been the weakest link in the 4 attacking players so far, despite the goal and assist. He does seem to be able to beat the first defender, then either keep his head down and run into trouble, or unable to put in a decent cross. Not saying he's been dreadful, just not fantastic. Maybe Sousa deserves a chance"

Converted yet Tom D ?
Three goals two assists good enough in last few weeks ?

Adios.

Are you related to him or something? Yeah he has brought himself up to the standard of performance seen in the other 3 members of our attack. Hope he can continue to do this week in week out.
