Woking
- Thread starter st06nc2
- Start date
I felt the players we have are easily capable of adapting to the conference type game,and Coley just wouldn't let the desire levels drop.
Think there's more goals in it for us aswell

He went in with studs up its a straight red
...but not away!
Just got on Coach for home. A bit cold but we are all very happy with a professional performance by our team. Woking threatened a bit early on and were a little on the physical side which resulted in the sending off. Having coped with their early efforts we quickly took total control of the game. It was great to see Billy getting on the score sheet and he deserved the rewards for his skills and effort. Johnno had a great match as did Jordan too. Seamus controlled midfield superbly and Hughes was majestic in defence. Beckles took on the task of marking their big free scoring centre forward and he too did his job really well. The big lad was getting frustrated near the end and he cold have easily been carded too late on.
A good win earning some good prize money and TV cash too. Now we need a BIG EARNING draw in the third round.
ON STANLEY ON.
Woking is A STANLEY WONDERLAND.

No thanks - was a tough game there in pre-season, would like them to beat moneybags Eastleigh though
Tis a funny old game. Thought Woking were much the more threatening and organised team for the first quarter of the game, and should have scored after a couple of minutes. Then Stanley scored, somewhat out of the blue (and yellow), their player rightly got sent off, and the entire match changed.
Stanley got a good second goal and went in for their half time orange on top. Second half and Stanley were in total control and fully exploited having the extra player by keeping possession for long spells. Third goal was a peach of a cross and even better header.
Then, for some reason, Lacey was subbed, even though I thought he was beginning to show some good touches in midfield, Woking woke up a bit and got over the injustice of being 0-3 and one man down, and got back into the game. But Stanley's central defence held firm and Boco should have made it 0-4 late on.
Good, professional performance against a team that might have expected to cause an upset. Well done to the lads, and thanks to Woking for a pleasant day out.

Think it might have been a bit of protection getting Lacey off having been booked mate.
Agree, it was good to see the captain back to his influential best, popping up everywhere in midfield to take the ball and move it on. Unfortunately, I thought Brown was a bit less effective today. Lots of effort and running but quite a few misplaced balls.
Great also to have real threats down BOTH wings with both Clark and O'Sullivan doing the business, culminating in that sweet third goal.
