Re: Woking

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.
