2-2. Gray. Flick on from Carver. Back in it.
3-2. Naismith. Keeper error. Nosebleeds. Come on Accy.
Full time. Well done boys.
Great result from Stanley. Looking forward to reading folks' reports. How did Dr.Procter do? To pull it back after letting another lead slip shows great grit.
Well done to all concerned.

Well we won it after proccy went off.
Though he did ok today, for me Carver was outstanding worked his ass off, What struck me this aft is when Bury/Carlisle/Tranmere etc equalised there tails were up n went fer it,fact, our tails dont seem to go up when we take the lead, seem to sit back, when we equalised today was much better, WHY? 
overall a good 3 pts n hope they can now carry forward n hit the ground running.Mingoia once again ran his socks off, have still to be convinced about Joyce.

What a entertaining match. First Tranmere goal was clearly offside (AGAIN undone by official who cannot keep up with the play), but for once, even though Stanley went 2-1 down, subs made by BT and the heads were still held high. Went on to get the equaliser and then the howler of the dodgy Tranmere keeper to let Naismith in. Good poachers goal! Negatives, silly booking for Naismith for time wasting, lack of urgency getting back for kick off after he scored. Could easily have added another couple of minutes for that. Joyce caught in possession, but I thought he had decent game today, the second Tranmere goal apart.
Positives - the crowd size although I fancy it may be a 50/50 split between Accy and Tranmere fans, they brought a good few. First win of the season.
Keep the faith as our ex gaffer used to say and onwards and upwards.

Enjoyed the game and for once we had a bit of luck.
In the first half we defended as a back four,and not just bombing on(Buxton at left back).
They tried to play football and looked a decent side and we again went long.
The difference was their CBs were quick but crap and Carver and Grey chased them all day.
I wish I hadn't opened my gob at half-time to Yonmon as I predicted what they would do.
Simple really,they had a quick right winger and he just drifted centrally and bang two goals.
Give the lads credit and when windass come on for Proccy it give us some go forward.
At least we got our share of decisions today,but they will be curing making them subs at 2-1 up as we caught them cold.

Sounds like Gray and Carver up front worked a treat, which pleases me a lot as I have always been a fan of the (bigger than he was) blond lad! I just hope JB persists with this formation,certainly at home and possibly away. Unlike Football19 with his "clean sheet" approach I am a fan of the "you score 3 and we'll score 4" gung ho plan!
Only problem i can see wi that un is- if they score 3 were unlikely to score 4.
Not negative Redraine,I would sooner us win 3-0 than 3-2 !!.
Believe me now when I say we won't be scoring three goals every game.they paid the price for playing a 20 and 21 year at CB.
Our last four games we have conceded nine goals,play like that and we will go down
Anyway,we should rejoice in our victory !!!

Ok, it wasn't always pretty but all that matters at the end of the day is that our boys pulled off their first win of the season today - we might not all agree with the starting line up or timing of the subs etc, etc but we are now well & truly off the mark - onwards & upwards lads.& I for one can say I'm proud of the resilience shown today
You would have been pleased with the Team spirit shown yesterday KJ !.....
Have a great Father's Day...whatever you get up to in your neck of the world !.
Always interesting to read other fans views, if only to confirm that every club has it's moaners who will never be happy.
Our pitch is brilliant!!! only last season when other games were called off , waterlogged eg Blackburn Rovers etc, we played as our drainage is much improved. We have a groundsman who " mothers " the pitch. So Carlisle , don't moan about our pitch , we here in Accrington are very proud of it.
