So anyone back from the game or watched it on sky can give me an update, I had to follow it on the Sky vidprint thingymajig, which wasn't as good as watching or hearing. Ta .:D
 
Excellent game and an excellent night, if a bit tight at the Clayton End. Another class act by Stanley only equalled by the effort put in by the ultras….Well done.
 
3041 peeps in attendance ..(quality)

along with a couple of league managers...mike newell..and steve (the dingle) cotteril sat nxt to big eric himself ...

and a certain mr ormerod in the sky box with geoff stelling :D
 
fantastic first half, shame they were shooting away from us :(. Atmosphere was electric for over 3000 sardines, ha ha. Well done once again to the ultras and to jase for a stunning display of flag waving. JT I really tried to get your flag on TV at the end, hope you saw it :)

Well done to Coley and all the lads :D

16 points clear and never mind having a laugh, it's almost, I said almost hysteria :p
 
Not much from Morecambe tonight until the 2 late substitutions, but if they had played them from the start Craney, Rommy and Rocky would have murdered them in the midfield. We just have confidence oozing through the team now and even though we weren't at our best the result was never in doubt. Todd is growing in stature with every game and we now have a genuine threat on both wings, the first time since the days of Mark Shirley and Russ Payne - marvellous!
Every man is giving 110% for the cause and responding to the relentless support from the Ultras. Can't relax yet though, and a tough match to come on Saturday - will we be up for it again? You bet we will.
 
What a fantastic strike by Todd - (someone please explain why they were all pullin his hair in the celebration) and how tight an angle was that by Mully?? Two superb finishes and Twiss is still a man-boob 80s Mullet sportin tosspot.... All credit to him for getting Morecambes sole shot on target for the whole of the 90 mins though :)

I thought the first 45 was great - permanently in Morecambes half - 2nd 45 - different story but at least the damage was done - I thought we could have done em 4-0 if we'd carried on the same way we did in the first half but I suppose McIlroy/Harvey had a few words at the interval.. What worries me is why the hell Mike Newell was there - Lutons nowhere near Accy unless Eibo had a word ;) Understandable why Steve the C**T Cotterill (yes Adders, you spoke the truth and were persecuted for it but the difference is Im not a Rovers fan :) ) was there...

As regards to my flag, Id like to thank whoever it was that put it in front of the LET sign at the Clayton End right at the front of the terrace - saw it HUNDREDS of times and yes - Harwood Red - I saw you waving it at the end - I cant thank you enough - I was asked if that was the flag I sent over by loads of people here :)

16 bloody points clear - UNBELIEVABLE!!! Coley - I LOVE YOU!!!

Interesting reading on www.shrimpsvoices.co.uk They give us plenty of praise and blame Sammy Macs tactics. A few dissenting voices about the state of the ground and Mullins "easy" goal but bragging rights with us I think. Now where is that Morecambe prat who usually posts on here? :engsmil:
 
They have a cheek to complain about our ground and the entry price for kids is the same home or away end. I too was very disappointed by the attendance from Morecambe. I honestly thought they would have matched halifax but hey ho, they must have felt it in there water, the 2-0 thrashing that is. Having just got back and found out that telewest broadcast broke down for the first 15 minutes of the match, not impressed, however, repeat on at 0030 hours so will record that. Excellent atmosphere, excellent match, top of the league and I'm beginning to believe this will be our year, but only when it is mathematically certain.

P.S. Blackburn Raver, there were actually 3 league managers watching the game, as you point out quite rightly, Newell and Cotterill but also Simon Grayson from Blackpool also in attendance, BTW why do you insist on coming on an Accy web site to post drivel?

we looked class first half..Always first to the ball in the air and on the floor..Beating players for fun it was amazing to watch..2 fantastic finishes won it in the end...I thought morecambe may be a bit more of a challenge but there was nothing there until second half..Perkins is a midget but a good player..Another fantastic save by rob elliot..that was immense...we were immense....stanerleeee...stanerleeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...stanerleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
