What about his take on Jacksons goal? 100% spot on imhoI think one of the only bits I agree with him about was his description of the 'hapless referee' - slight taste of sour grapes in the account but hey, we got the three points & it's always a bonus to send that nice Mr. Evans (who apparently complained to the stewards that he was being abused by our fans, as if!) home with his tail between his legs
Stags thread
- Thread starter mab
- Start date
Have to say i agree with most of it, thought a point was a fair result, though aint complaining about 3
,Looking at the (excellent) video from the Clayton End, I think the Mansfield defender who had to leap over his goalie just landed on the keeper's finger with the heel of his boot. Their keeper was right to make a meal of it, it probably ruined his nail varnish.
Fair point........................and I also expect a change on Tuesday night.
Always thought that Danny Rose was a half-decent striker... but after his diving antics yesterday which once or twice put the efforts of Tom Daley slightly in the shade, my opinion of him now is as low as a corn on the sole of a flat-footed pygmy !.
Referee-wise, as well as the other well spotted shortcomings already noted in this thread, his response to the several occasions where simulated injury was enacted by the despicable Rose and other Mansfield players was woeful to say the least !..his slap-on-the-wrist treatment is totally inadequate where this behaviour is concerned, particularly when the FA is attempting to put an end to these aberrations . His protracted discussions with the players involved must have added 5 minutes to the game and had no effect on their behaviour whatsoever.. like him, a total waste of time !.
But well done to the team and their Managers..better days for us all to look forward to !.
ON STANLEY...ON TO EVEN GREATER THINGS !
ps... Alfred.E is back !.

Surely sub judice.
Unlikely that simply telling what you might believe the alleged offence to be on a minor forum will seriously prejudice the court case. We know it's GBH outside a club. Also, "without intent" (which I assume means they didn't go chasing some innocent bystander down a street and duff him up).
Be interesting to see if that coincided with Billy's issues last year as it happened in January.

If you read the question again, it was "What actually happened?"
I would have thought that even you could understand the difference between that question and your banal "simply telling what you might believe the alleged offence to be".
seen it stonewaller for me.

agreed though if he had given the penalty things might have been different. for me their goal was fair. 50/50 chance and if the same had happened to us i,d be annoyed if it was chalked off. keeper must have full control of the ball.
Another Mansfield report, a bit lacking in spelling and punctuation but includes a longer video at the end: http://www.mtfcmatters.co.uk/mm-blog/the-nitty-gritty-accrington-stanley-2-1-stags
I think a Dingle musta wrote that!
I know we have had a couple of clowns in the past but
"really gone for the Stanley juggler"
"really gone for the Stanley juggler"
If we have a juggler, Mansfield have the clown in that nice Mr. EvansI know we have had a couple of clowns in the past but
"really gone for the Stanley juggler"
Ref allowed himself to be intimidated by Evans and had a shocker in the first half, to be fair he composed himself for the second half after the steward got Evans to behave.
I think Coley was correct when he said to the the fourth official that he err "scared of him"

Theres been some very poor officials at Stanley no doubt but yon mon takes the biscuit, I find it VERY hard to accept he is that poor, so to me it only leaves 1 explanation.
if we had lost people would be going spare, but this should not be ignored cos we won the match imho.
