vs Fulham match thread.

Hi all - just home, listened in the car - nearly a motorway pileup when we equalised.

First half sounded absolutely great but once Kempo went it was pretty obvious there was only going to be one result. Only dropped two places in the league though :).
 
Great effort by everyone Today, hard to seperate the two sides first half, second half we were always going to be up against it with ten men, after seeing Kempo's first yellow & speaking to him was absoluely gutted for him and the team as the first did not look like a booking while the second was.

What we can take from Today is that spirit of togetherness and the fear of no one

Great effort by everyone connected to the Club it was a fantastic day and I am looking foward to seeing the highlights Tonight:)

Now on to Tuesday and the Shots

On Stanley On!
 
Great performance we dominated a side playing in Europe for 45minutes. Had we got the penalty on Symes in the first half it could have been a much different result, can't complain at the second Kempson booking but the first one seemed soft. Nothing from the lads great effort, great to see Boozer running the length of the pitch to celebrate good to have that from a loan player, so good defending from Grant when he had to and some singing in the main stand courtesy of Mr Khan. Talking to some Fulham fans on the way out and they were full of praise for the side. Could still hear the Ultras singing when I was on Burnley Road.Proud to be a red.
 
Well done Reds, I was disapointed but proud. We may have scraped a draw with a bit more luck. I thought Grant was superb today. The Ultras were just great but the sending off sealed our fate. Thanks to everyone for a really enjoyable day
 
Very proud of the lads today, they played like Lions! Blatant penalty, Kempo should not have been sent off - ref was rubbish! Thought all the lads played out of their skins, Phil Edwards was amazing & looked a Premiership player! A great day out.
 
my verdict, only 1 side in it first half n that was stanley, Kempson should not have been sent off, 2nd booking was justified, 1st was a joke, second half only 1 side was gonna win it, cos ya can't play a premiership side wi 10 men n get owt, every player can feel proud of their performance, cos i sure am, fans were fantastic, but whats new about that? Well done to everybody, 3pts next weds cos yer good enough fer play offs no question, hope kempo aint too sick cos he has no need whatsoever. they made n owd git very proud this afternoon.
 
Well just got back.

Another great occasion at the crown.

As for the 1st half we bossed it, simple as that.

Agreed if Kempson would have stayed on, who knows.

Thought Danny Murphy was different class, but other than that we made them look average.

On stanley on
 
Never have I walked off the Crown after watching Stanley lose, but feeling so proud.

If someone who didn't know who the clubs were had watched the first half, they would've said we were the premier club.

I'll never forget the moment when we scored and the WHOLE of the Clayton End erupted...sheer magic.

Out...but definitely not down.
 
Absolutely proud as punch with our players without doubt the 1st half was phenomenal performance, left me speachless. Kempo's sending was the final end to the rally, he was clearly gutted as the ref was rather harsh. Well what was it like to see a full house majority backing the lads, the people did come back :) hope it bodes well for improved gates. MOST IMPORTANTLY OF ALL FROM TODAYS MATCH IS WE - STANLEY SCORED A GOAL AGAINST A PREM SIDE! oh and apart from all the revenue made today and club shop, jobs a good one looking forward to seeing replay cos i spent most of 1st half with heart in mouth it was that thrilling. Lastly ultras - super loud noise certainly flumaxed fulham fans but in the end minutes they did sing same song but changed it to cockney instead that was weird going at the same time, out sung out flagged out bounced, cheers lads. Even the pipe band encored outside club house too :)

A phenominal performance from all involved with stanley today, the back room staff the fans and most of all the players were absolutley outstanding. To say we matched Fulham in the 1st half is an understatement..........we gave them a football lesson! The captain led the line and the rest of the boys followed. 10 v 11 premiership players proved to much in the end but the players can proud of their performance. Bring on the Shots on Tuesday!
 
Well done today to all the team, they did us proud. It was even stevens up to the Kempson dismissal and I really felt that Attwell the ref mishandled that. Kempson only made two tackles and got booked for both. Why does he not take the player to one side and say 'look I've just booked you, foul again and I'll have to send you off'. Instead he went straight for the second yellow and there's no way back. Game as a level playing field is killed off. What a prat! Rant over, well done Stanley
 
...well you won't find any gloating from me! We didn't even look like we wanted to be there, I won't make any excuses though. Accy had all of the first half and the sending off of Kempson became the pivotal point of the game.

You guys should be very proud (oh! I see that you are) of your performance today, you passed the ball around well but after the sending off you didnt have the freedom up front - and I can understand you feeling like you were mugged. I would have liked to see you visit Craven Cottage in a return leg but it won't be this season.

Good luck for the rest of your season, and I hope the turnout gives you the financial boost sufficient to save your historical club...
 
Well everybody seems to be on the same page, very impressed by Stanley, {watched the whole game on the computer}. They outplayed Fulham in the first half and bar for the sending off, I,m sure we would have been at least level at the end. Totally agree with you Reamer, the ref, who I thought had a good game, should have given him a boll*cking but not a 2nd card which ruined the game for everyone there. Common sense in a situation like that. Anyway, totally brilliant Stanley and all concerned.
 
Now I am even more gutted I could not be there and all I have to show are the edited highlights and maybe a link to the full game via Setanta Australia. At least I have a commerative scarf and mug and programme, thank goodness the Mrs Oz got there to do her bit. One question, if the crowd was 3,712 as reported on the Beeb, and the game was a sell out, was that for Stanley supporters and if so, how many Fulham fans turned up?
 
I was at the game today and what a transformation in the fortunes of asfc,to say the best team lost is a under statement.Every player gave his all and i reckon that the harsh sending off of darren kempson was the turning point in the game,uptil that point Fulham looked very ordinary indeed.The whole team did accrington proud and the clayton end was in full voice from start to finish,even i was singing hence the soar throat lol.well done Accy,i hope you make the play offs,and if they can maintain that sort of form then who knows maybe even automatic promotion.Roy hodgson will know his team were second best for most of the game and even in the second half with 10 men they still gave it their all,unfortunately you can't play against the ref as well,he gave Accy ****** all in the second half.Well done Accy best wishes for the rest of the season.It was great to see Hobby on the clayton end again.
 
just been on friends of fulham forum, there saying good stuff about stanley in general, so fair play to em.
