Re: Barnet Thread
 

Kabba is injured, which is good news for us as he was a handful down at their place. Some posters on here said they were the worst team they had seen in Div.2 but I didn't agree at the time and they have been showing what they are capable of recently. We need to GERRINTOEM from the off and keep the hammer down.:D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Doubt if there will be many coming up from Barnet, on there site says a Minibus n trying to run a 33 seater coach also if viable, so the ultras as usual will play a massive role in motivating the reds to victory.IMHO.:)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Sean thanks the fans and says he's determined to win promotion: ASFC News Story > 4058

Re: Barnet Thread
 

dont think Kabba is a big loss for them, he is way past it now.
The key for tommorrow is to get out of the blocks fast, dont let them settle and push for an early goal.
If it doesnt come then stay patient, a couple of barnet fans have commented how they tend to drop off in the last 20 minutes of games with their fitness and concentration.

If they need any more motivation, the Torquay result should be enough to inspire them to get the job done today.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Happy Birthday young Dan, hope stanley make yer day by stuffing Barnet.:)

Ben

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Not sure who won the toss but Stanley will attack the Clayton End first. The wind is in our advantage.

Game On!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Stanley start on the front foot 90 seconds in Gornell's work brings a throw taking quickly resulting in a Procter looping header which Saw Walker takes easily

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Goal!!!!! Jimmy ryan

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Thats what you call a nerve settler :D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Yessss. 1-0

Re: Barnet Thread
 

you beauty

Re: Barnet Thread
 

5. Jimmy 20 yards out in a central position the ball was bouncing horribly but Ryan made an excellent contact and powered it low past the keeper.

We all know that Stanley's going up is the chant from my left

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Macc just taken lead at Gillingham

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Goal... 1-1

Re: Barnet Thread
 

and northampton one up v. Stevenage

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Mistake from Hessey at the back Mark Marshall picked up the loose ball and slotted past Cisak when one on one

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Today is all about the Reds but thought I'd let you know as results stand Barnet will be relegated if they lose.

10. Ryan tries to lob the keeper as he makes a awful clearance but his effort is wide.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Gills now 2 down - Shrews gone one up - as have Bury

Re: Barnet Thread
 

The wind is playing a big part in this game Stanley's high balls are going too far and when ever Barnet clear the ball is dropping like a stone.

how are the nerves?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

As everything stands we are 5th but Shrewsbury have moved into 3rd

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Nerves? Lots of toilet paper at the ready!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Good job the extra weight in the shirts will stop the players blowing away then :D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

20. Gornell down with a bang to the head The Reds have a free kick but quite a distance out chance to cross

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Sam Walker in The Bee's goal is really struggling with the wind all of kicks so far have found John Coleman

Re: Barnet Thread
 

24. Corner to the Reds.
McConville takes low Barnet make a mess of clearing Stanley throw.

McConville to the by line cut back for Barnett but the ball wouldn't come down and Sam deering can clear.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

What's happening?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

after a blistering start this one has turned into a very nervous affair Barnet have not read the Stanley script and look loike a team fighting for their life 10 of the first half to go.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Wheels have well & truly fallen off for the Gills (for the second week running). 3 down at home to Macc..

Re: Barnet Thread
 

40. Hessey free kick hanging at the back post Edwards rises highest but can only head wide.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Dam...I really must invest in a new alarm clock. C'MON STANLEY

Re: Barnet Thread

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Righty o smarty, what colour is the logo?:D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Black & White :rolleyes:

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Kiwi.

As Mr Coleman is superstitious we are wearing this seasons kit not the new one, however, as CleverBoxes are our new sponsors the white logo is on the front on a black square.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Hear hear Mr Coleman. Thats the way to go. Thank you, and thank you Dave for the wee game. :)

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Stanley back on the field, the music has stopped but as of yet no opposition!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Stanley look like they are going to make a half time sub Sean Hessey to be replaced by Kevin Long. Not sure why but we have the wind against us in the second half and lots of heading will need to be done.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

here we go again!!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Hmm.... perhaps playing the long ball game? :D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Burn long throw for The Bees punched behind for a corner.
48. massive scramble in the 6 yard box Winnard pokes behind.
Second corner for Barnet. Cisac claims well but stops Cisac's long throw is stopped by McLoed bit of Accy Agro see's McLeod, Marshall and Phil Edwards booked.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

It sounds a bit tense up there

Re: Barnet Thread
 

53. Barnet are certainly coping better with the wind in the second half it been all Barnet but Gornell running diagonally has a left foot shot blocked.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

C'mon STANLEY, Barnet ain't bottom for nothing.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

54. Stanley Free kick 20 yards out for a handball Ryan to take

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Ryan's second of the afternoon. He drilled it low it took a huge deflection and beat Sam Walker into the roof of the net.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Yyeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Come on Stanley, let's have another and make the game safe.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Here we go here we go here we go

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Joyce deflects cross behind Barnet corner
Leach header over but another corner
Joyce clears 3rd corner to come

Re: Barnet Thread
 

5th corner final Stanley have it Cisak claims very well

Re: Barnet Thread
 

we'll take a deflextion - C'mon you Reds (with white logo on black patch) !

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Get it tied up today n we can give a few key players a rest next weekend?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Even I'm feeling the excitement :D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Alex Cisak is doing his best to steal Jimmy Ryan's thunder. Stanley's number seven has a brace but Cisak has been outstanding when claiming high crosses in the wind.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

With Barnet playing for survival we must stay focused

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Winnard mistakes but stops Marshalls cross another corner. Swerving in the wind but Long heads behind under pressure. Not counting but think this is the 7th corner since Stanley took the lead.
They have another make that 8.

Kevin Long booked not sure what for.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

8th corner and again Cisak makes a great catch
Accy Agro again as Daniel Leach is booked for barging Alex into the back of his net. Thankfully he is fine, for me he is Man of the Match by a long long way

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Ryan goal hatrick

Re: Barnet Thread
 

A goal from absolutly nothing!! Winnard's throw came out to Ryan who took a touch and let fly left footed it lacked power but beat Walker into the bottom left corner. 3-1
Jimmy Ryan into double figures !!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Yabadabadoooo :alright:

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Genius! What a day to get a hat trick.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Re: Barnet Thread
 

YESSS - Jimmy Ryan, Jimmy Ryan, Jimmy Ryan - get that contract ready for his siggy

Re: Barnet Thread
 

C'mon Sean, your turn.

Re: Barnet Thread

Accrington Stanley 72
Torquay 68
Stevenage 68
Dosen't it look pretty ?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Ryan free kick from 30 yards out on target keeper can only parry Phil Edwards overhead kick straight at the keeper.
70 on the watch.

The Clayton End is BOUNCING!!

Re: Barnet Thread
 

They're bouncing ??..we just had a wee earthquake.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Oh dear- poor Morecambe

Re: Barnet Thread
 

72. Stanley free kick McConville whips it in for Gornell to head wide.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Tie everything down for when the whistle goes.:D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Yet another Barnet corner as Cisak puses a long throw behind and then comes out and claims the corner.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

The kittens are staying well away this week..

Re: Barnet Thread
 

2764 is the attendance. 13 to play.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Its remarkable just how well STANLEYs form improved since I stopped including them as a win option in my multis...

Re: Barnet Thread
 

I've been waiting to make some I BELIEVE t-shirts for the raffle tonight since 3pm. I'll get on with it now :D

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Jude Sterling on for Barnet get ready for some very long throws.

Oxford 2-1 up against Lincoln means Barnet will not be relegated today.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Good ! it would distract from the day for that to happen

Re: Barnet Thread
 

85. Barnet have a free kick left of centre 25 yards out. Sam Deering to take but well over the bar

Re: Barnet Thread
 

This from Football 365....

80 Barnet are in control of the match. Key player: Alex Cisak

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Jimmy Ryan named sponsors man of the match. Can't argue as he has got the first hatrick of his career but Alex Cisak is a very close second Stanley's number one has been awesome.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

4 mins of time added on!! Very nearly there.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Judd Sterling long throw level with 18 yard box looping header wide.

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Bury's done us no favours..

Re: Barnet Thread
 

Cisak rushes off his line and claims in front of Mcleod

Re: Barnet Thread
 

We're gaureenteed a play off spot now I think.?

Re: Barnet Thread
 

yep guaranteed 5th place too

Re: Barnet Thread
 

JIMMY RYAN taken off to a wall of noise at The crown
Richardson on.
