Dons going up?

after watching the goals on the link on another thread to the championship I noted that rocky got a second yellow then red....with it not being a straight red that makes a difference to his suspension does it not???

I agree wholeheartedly with what accymel has put and was sickened with the chants "I hope his dead" when one of the dons players was knocked out!!

But good on Toddy who immediately went to put him into the recovery position even though some of the dons players were trying to pull him off until they realised what he was trying to do!! And many of you may not of realised but the ref actually pulled toddy to one side after and said "well done you did the right thing there and not to blame himself" (I can lip read :) )

As for Mangan's goal..........WOW! :D
 
Well having read this thread, and as one of the early leavers, although only to the warmth of the clubhouse, I have to be controversial. Firstly and foremostly, John Colemans subs yesterday were at best naive and at worst downright wrong. OK if Phil Edwards had a lower leg injury fine, but why bring on another attacker? Then why the hell did he take of the best attacking player we had by a country mile in McGivern and replace him with a defender??? and to be honest I thought Andy Todd scored the first goal as well, certainly looked as though Mullers missed it and Toddy side footed it into the net, but hey ho what do I know. I am glad I missed the chants, because this is not the first time they have been heard, I can remember them from the conference, and they are not on. Lets leave those at home and be true supporters not animals. Toddy seemed to loose his touch when Mangan came on for Edwards. He is not a natural defender, but seemed to run back and forth all day. For me Toddy is our best player at the moment by a country mile, but McGivern is closing in fast and is as skillful a ball player whereas Mangan is not. Yes he scored the best goal yesterday, but for the love of the team and the game, our two wingers should be Todd and McGivern and maybe swapping over as Toddy used to with Craney!!. Lastly - Ian Dunbavin must be rested (will not say dropped) and although he has played well in previous matches, it is time for Robbie Elliot to take over. And please recall David Brown from his loan, we need him!!
 
My views on yesterday's game, for what they're worth.

Jacobson, has settled in very quickly; steady, composed and skilful, made Mullin's first, provides an outlet throughout the game, and takes most of the set pieces. Harris and Procter work their socks off, Harris was particularly impressive after Rocky was sent off. Mangan had his most mature display ever, and the goal said a lot about attitude, plus technique.

Toddy; winger, full back, ball boy, first aider, all performed with enthusiasm, skill and humour.

Not knocking the rest by ommission, but gone on long enough.

Just one last word, we've still got our best player on the books, two chances in two months and they're both in the back of the net.

Keep the faith, Cart On, etc. etc.
 
I agree.

Jacobson did very well on the left and I noticed a lot of useful things Andy Proctor did.

It's been great to have Procky back this year.

Funnily, I think there were a lot more positives from yesterday's defeat than last week's draw.
 
Please can someone explain how you can get a positive from a defeat and if you don't like the word winger, then attacking midfielder - will that do! You can say we played well in parts, but at the end of the day we are one point above the relegation places how can that be positive??
