Chesterfield Match Thread...........

STANLEY WERE SIMPLY MAGNIFICENT TODAY.:mosher:
With the exception of Murphy that is. :dummy2:His sheer stupidity for the first booking was for either not retreating ten yards or for saying something stupid in earshot of the referee. The referee was just as inept as he has been every time he has officiated at Stanley.:dummy2: For Murphy's second booking he had, in the twenty seconds before Murphy's tackle, let 3 bad fouls go unpunished!!! I hope the injured lad gets better soon.
The rest of the team including subs were BRILLIANT;:mosher:
Gray won nearly everything and tackled and created lots of great stuff. He had run so hard I think he had cramp before an hour was on the clock.
Moly took his goals well, although the first had a bit of luck as it bobbled all the way through everybody! Hatfield and Joyce played thier hearts out too. Wilson and the new lad Buxton, (he's so cool on the ball), were both great and frustrated Roberts and their other winger. Webber did well in the first half too. Windass. Koyode and rob Atkinson did their bit when they came on too. Marcus in goalk did not have a lot of shots to stop as most of their attempts were well off target but he did cath alot in the air under severe pressure in the second half.:mosher:
DEANO WAS MAGNIFICENT AND SUPERBLY CLEARED ONE OFF THE LINE LATE ON AND HE WAS SO BRAVE THROUGHOUT THE MATCH.:biggrin8:

HOWEVER, I'VE LEFT THE BEST UNTIL LAST BEACAUSE IF DEANO SCORED A 10 FOR HIS PERFORMANCE THEN THE MIGHTY TOM ALDRED WAS WORTH TWELVE AT LEAST!!:alc:
I THINK TOM IS SO BRAVE AND STRONG. HE WAS INTO EVERTHING TODAY AND WAS UNDOUBTABLY THE MAN OF THE MATCH.
Beatty's substitutions were spot on today as well and really Chestefield just ran out of ideas and finished up just hopefully chipping the ball into our goal mouth.
Watching Cookie was just comical in the first half!:rofl38::rofl38:
THE CLAYTON END WERE BRILLIANT TOO AND THE BACK BARRETT CHANT WENT ON FOR OVER 20 MINUTES TOWARDS THE END.
JACK WOULD HAVE BEEN A PROUD MAN TODAY!!:cheers:
WELL DONE TO ALL.
0N STANLEY ON:wave8:
 
A great win indeed! I think fortune(how many sitters did they miss in the first half?!) and a ref slightly on our side added to our magnificent first half hour onslaught,gave us the League result of the day!:cheers:
As for the snake Cook...:dummy: :D
 
Phew, never saw that coming team were magnificent as choirboy says, Ultras were magnificent as well, I stand next to cowshed and all the action unfolded in front of me,great result well done to all, I thought there was more than 1900 in the ground but must have been mistaken
 
What a great match for my "comeback"! No complaints about team selection or substitutions today - all spot on. Thought Gray was immense, not only winning more than his share of headers but by his movement and skill on the ball he terrorised their defence. Unlike Football19, for a table topping team I couldn't believe how little penetration Chesterfield had in attack. Unable to pass their way through our magnificent defence their only tactic was to pass the ball out to the wings and and lob a steam of centres into the middle. The fact that Jimmy Ryan was substituted says it all. I really must try to bring my son-in-law more often. On each of his last 2 visits Lee has scored a hat-trick!

Crowd according to BBC was 1968.

Like others, I was hoping for a Stanley win, but never saw that coming. As I am on night duty, I went for a couple of hours this afternoon and got up at half time. What a shock to see Stanley down to 10 men but 3-0 up. Sweet!!!
All I can say is well done to the 10 for holding out for the last 60 or so minutes of the game and well done to the management and coaches for the correct substitutions at the correct times (for a change after what I have read on here previously). All I can say is roll on Tuesday night against the not so mighty shrimps in the replay of the abandoned game.
Heres hoping for 3 more points as it will put Stanley above them in the table and could even take us as high as 12th in the League (dependant on other results, of course) and 9 points clear of the drop zone. Looking forward to watching this on the Football League show tomorrow morning.:mosher::D
 
good descision by JB opting for pace up front today, Chesterfield had one of those days when the ball would not go in the net, it was like we had an invisable shield protecting our goal, some heroic defending from Stanley and a comedy of errors from Chesterfield, I thought the new loanee at right back had a good game, Murphy sending off was more down to the silly initial first yellow which could have ultimatley cost us the match and will have implications on the matches to come, but all in all a brilliant result beating top of the league with 10 men and Cookie sent to the wheel chair area Brilliant

Shrimps a week on Tuesday surely?
 
Cracking day to be a Stanley fan. Giving the league leaders a tonking is an extremely good feeling. The fact that they are managed by an ex Stanley 'team' just puts the icing on the cake. This must surely be James Beattie's most satisfying result. Well done to the players who showed some real desire to win this game. Well done to Moly on what must be his first league hat trick. Always rated the guy and you can tell he just loves playing for us. A mention too for Buxton who made an impressive debut and Deano and Tom at the back who were as impressive as ever. Prat of the day must go to the 'Snake' who showed to all the sporting world what n*bs behave like and whilst I like Roberts as a player , he would gain more respect if he concentated on playing instead of trying to get fellow professionals booked and/or sent off.
 
Shrimps a week on Tuesday surely?
Yes according to Fishy site;
Stanley v Hartlepool Tuesday 11th March
Rochdale v Stanley Saturday 15th March
Stanley v Morecambe 18th March
All important matches so get on and give 100% support to James and the team. They surely deserve it after todays great performance!
ON STANLEY ON!!!:mosher:
 
That was a Top day everything about is was fully warranted and deserved from the first whistle to the last with every single one of the team giving everything they had.

Credit to JB for changing the starting 11 and subs were spot on that result will give everyone around and connected to the Club a massive shot in the arm.

Superb on the pitch and Clayton End in full voice unison and bliss
 
Quote of the day; James Beattie;
"They met up with the resilience of my boys!"
Great interview by JB sounding very professional, and I really do believe that he will go far! Sadly this probably means that he won't be at Stanley for much longer!

Says so much about the team spirit in the club at the moment and the way that JB is getting so much more than the best out of the team!
Keep it up JB and the boys!:mosher:
 
Have said before today,any team in Div2 can beat any team on the day, n from what i have seen this season Stanley are in a very false position, We beat the leaders wi 10 men fer most of the game, Onwards n Upwards is my forecast.:);)

'Twill be a shame but JB has done everything right so far this season.

Just remembered .... some Chesterfield 'fans' were leaving the ground 20 minutes before the end of the match today.... he heee heeeeeee!!!:jimbo::mosher:
