Burton Thread

See what happends when you nod off in the chair,mist all the excitment!!!! Good point well done Stanley,so its snotage we're playing :rolleyes:
 
Well another good away day.

Was very surprised with Coleys starting XI along with many others, but proved to be a very wise decision.

Good for some of the fringe players to get a run out, and even better they battled back from 0-1 down.

Long went off at Half Time with a knock I assume, hoping its not too serious.

Most impressive for me where Smyth at the back, who I thought looked composed and for me could be a regular 1st team player next season, as well as Turner who gave the Right Back loads of problems and delivered a peach of a ball for Deano's Goal.

Im hoping he sneaks onto the bench in place of Murphy for next Sunday, as I thought Pete was very average today.

Good to see Razor get 90 minutes, could have scored with a couple of great runs.

Bring on the Boro Chat morons.
 
Too many changes for me which meant a lack of rhythm & cohesion from back to front

First Half we were poor, distribution was woeful, back four looked all at sea at times with the exception of Kevin Long who just does the simple things but does it effectively and if the Brewers had had their shooting boots on they would have been out of sight by the end of the half.

Second half with the introduction of Jimmy we started to play and then when Proccy came on it then added a bit of steel & purpose allowing the ball to be fizzed about creating a few half chances.

So nice to see DJ get a run out and he created havoc with their right back and as Smudgie said and what a ball he put in from the free-kick.

Nice to get a point to keep the run going and perhaps deserved with the Red's much improved second half performance there was certainly food for thought.

A good point from the second string today.Totally agree about Murphy he had a very poor game and to say 9 out of the 11 starting are fighting for a bench place in the play offs I thought Boulding and Lindfield were weak, they didnt win challenges and lost balls at every opportunity. In the second half we did look more composed and to be fair if the subs had been used sooner it was a winable game.
Turner looked good and provided a great cross for Deano's goal . Dean played well and I thought Smyth had a decent game. Super Ultras loud as ever and a draw was a fair result. Good to see young Burto coming through a little shakey at times but maybe one for the future.
 
A side note most impressed with the set-up at Burton in terms of how new stadiums go

If we were to get something similar eventually that will do for me
 
I think Pendle Red's summed it up pretty well. There was some wayward shooting from the Brewers in the first half. Had a couple of those gone in it would have been a different story.

Both keepers deserve a mention. Bavs dealt with two one-on-ones and came out on top each time. And Adam Legzdins generously applauded the Stanley fans after the match before being presented with Burton's player of the season award on local radio. He came over well in his post-match interview.

Deano did well to get into an umarked position for his goal and his shot was a beauty. But the BBC report is somehow crediting it to one of the Burton subs!
