Come on You Stanley Boys!!

If my maths are right, 0-4 would put us second in the table!

id say bout 400 will go up!

Im going.. aswell as Frank.

leaving Crown at 3pm with a belly full of fine food :)

Quick question whilst im here, coach is 5pm set-off correct?

I'm going, just a 40 minutes drive, no probs :D

Just found out that York's goalkeeper, Paul Crichton, according to Sky Sports News, has been suspended after some sort of disagreement with their fans........

yeah a york fan told me about that aswell

York fan "oi Crichton why not pass it to 1 of our players next time"

Crichton "instead of slagging us off why not get behind the team "

and i fink there was some flying punches

Just been on their website - one of their fans has predicted we will win 25 - 0!!! That's confidence for you.

Well, we won, but not 25-0, against 10 men for 70 minutes.
How did we do?
Awaiting TM's report with eager anticipation!!
Well done, results & points matter most, I'm sure we'd all take 9 out of 12!!

You could be waiting a while mate, as I wasn't at tonight's game. I only tend to do home games, because I don't get to many away matches due to other commitments.

Today was my first day back at work after 7 weeks off and I didn't get home in time to go to York, even if I'd wanted to. :( Still, at least not going to away matches saves me the trauma of games like at Stevenage. :p

Well done tonight lads! Keep this up and who knows what'll happen at the end of the season? :D

You don't get the atmosphere, but you can get a good idea of what went on here:

Useful for following matches you can't get to, as well.

I went tonight and I thought we played very well, we just need to learn how to finish our chances. We had enough opportunities to win about 25-0, but some great saves from the York 3rd choice keeper (The 2nd choice got sent off, in case you didn't know) and some terrible shots kept York in with a chance.
Craney impressed me, as did Bimson, Jagielka and Cookie (Always:D)

The game was there for the taking after their goalie got sent off on 17 minutes for a professional foul. He hauled Craney down when he tried to run past him to latch onto a long ball. Pity it was outside the area, but Rory hit the bar with the free-kick and that was how it would be for the rest of the match. As SuperAccyStan said, we should have easily scored three or four more, but I've thought that in every game apart from Stevenage.

Their teenage goalie earned their match of the man award which says a lot about the chances that we had.

Don't understand why we took Craney off midway through the second half and replaced him with Lutel. He is going to score a lot of goals through the middle this year, whereas Lutel's chances are limited on the right.

In contrast to second half of last season when we tended to panic when holding onto a lead, there was a definite swagger to our play once Cook came on. We were just passing it around and stopping them getting the ball, which was easy with them only having 10 men. It didn't stop us having a couple of nervy moments when we almost got caught out passing it along our back line though!

All in all, another very polished performance and I can't think of any side from last season that would trouble us if we continue to play like this ... except the occasional bad day at the office which every team has!

Agreed. The first fifteen minutes belonged to them and the game definitely swung our way when they were (rightly) reduced to ten men. All played well and TBH JK didnt have a shot to save all match - but standing out amongst a good bunch tonight were Jaggers, Bimson, Howson and Craney.

Their replacement Keeper was making his debut tonight (he didn't even have his name printed on his jersey!) and, if his performance this evening is anything to go by, they have a very good young keeper on their hands. He kept them in touch with a string of very good stops and thoroughly deserved their MOM by a long stretch. If we had put even a quarter of our good chances away (especially second half) then we would have run out winners by three/four goals. But hey I cant complain, its just that with ten minutes to go I thought that if they had grabbed a sneaky equaliser then we would be rueing the chances that we had to put the game well beyond their reach - but the thing is we created many chances and defended stoically so at the end of the day (cliche alert!) we thoroughly deserved to win. York can (and probably will) complain that their keeper shouldn't have gone but, from where I was, the Ref had no choice.

We have won two out of three on our travels so far this season - over the whole of last season we only managed something like three away wins - and that is play-off, if not outright winners, form. Well done to all - a thoroughly good night!

we have equaled last seasons away win record of two games.. they where at dagenham and liegh rmi
