Fleetwood Thread.

My brief analysis of last night's game echoes much of what's been already said..
Ian D...did all that we have come to expect and admire about his goalkeeping this season,
The performance of the Back Four outlined the fact that Leam's defensive nous is clearly having the desired effect and a couple of the blocks from powerful shots showed that they are willing to lay it all on the line for him !.
The midfield duo supported by Lee and the Prince of Benin controlled and saw off all that Ferguson MBE and his lot could muster.
The performance of James Beattie showed the class and expertise built up via a career at the highest levels..with clever hold-up play..his winning and placement of headers...and his link-up with Rommy in particular...and who could forget THAT audacious forty-yarder which no-one, including the Smelly-ones goalkeeper expected and almost created the goal of the season !!..
Another bouquet must go to Leam Richardson who 'got it right on the night'....both tactically , and for preparing his team to provide a performance which overshadowed their opponents all over the field !.
My final cry is ..' FIAT LUX !!..
[SIZE=4]Now I know that my eyesight [SIZE=4]doesn't function quite as well as it has done over t[SIZE=4]he years...BUT was it my optical shortcomings, or does the [SIZE=4]Highbury Stadium really have the worst set of Floodlights in the Football League ??..especially as they can boast high-tech turnstiles....high-tech loos[SIZE=4] wherein the 'receptacles' [SIZE=4]were actually compatible with my stature !....AND high tech Meat and Potato Pies which were passable ( Crust slightly overbaked.....yet tastily filled !) ..£3.OO [SIZE=4] [SIZE=4]?.
[SIZE=4][SIZE=4][SIZE=4]But I mustn't allow the fact that I couldn't make out just why the Reds were awarded the penalty...or see the flag in the far corn[SIZE=4]er detract from the fact that i[SIZE=4]t was a great result...a great performance from our [SIZE=4]Team...and a[SIZE=4]n entertaining and satisfying night out...SO THERE !.

The facilities in the main stand were first class,but what about the playing surface!,not seen any better and went to pitch side to check it was not astro-turf!!!.
Nice touch was a women walking around selling chicken soup from a barrel on her back,different to say the least.

Are you sure it WAS soup 19 ??...We thought that she was a lady Ghostbuster looking for the 'Highbury Ghosts ' !!...
( Cue Ray Parker Jnr !! )....true about that Billiard Table of a pitch though !!.
 
Yonmon summed the performance up perfectly. A great start to be two up so early on. Beattie played a huge part in leading the line and he worked very hard too. Great to see a bigger forward able to climb above their defenders and win lots of ball. His lay offs were great, especially to Rommy Boco who linked well with him. Molineaux is super in midfield and he is such a creative passer. Some of his passing and thinking reminds me of Beckham at is best a few years ago. Wonder if Leam could be audacious again and offer Beckham the chance to play for us??!!! Toto did well. Bavs super again as were the Stanley fans.
 
Was talking to Bob Dobson tonight who told me all yeh could hear all night were the Stanley Fans, not the homers, no surprise yon eh.;)
 
He'd clearly seen Rommy steaming up on his left - that pass was intended, and quick-witted; good goal, great signing .........
