Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Its ironic that their centre half (hughes) got injured for us (away at Rochdale) last season,which gave Aldred his chance.
Was this a coincidence that we then went on a great run and avoided relegation?
Watched both their performances last night and Aldred came out on top by a country mile.
Without taking anything away from last nights performance,Morecambe paid the price for playing three young lads in centre mid and never got a foothold in the game.
Their defence sat far too deep,where Acci are comfortable holding a highline,and this gave us the advantage and field position to cause them all kinds of problems

Well i'm a simple guy football19 n the problem was this= We were too good fer em.;)

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Just trying to work out why they were so crap !!
On paper decent front three,defenders ok,team in a bit of form,didnt expect them to get blitzed like they did :)

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

According to the Beeb's summary (unreliable I know) Stanley had 14 shots, 9 on target, 5 goals. Football's a simple game.

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

They were blitzed because our lads played out of their skins - simple!

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Still getting over the result last night.

WHAT a result that was, wish I was there.

Buxton sounds a real find. Also great to see Hatfield getting another chance :)

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Aye, Smudgie, he is starting to really look the part. Last night his work rate and fitness was outstanding and his bursts past their defenders were electrifying. He and Gray seem to have grabbed the shirts with their 100% commitment to the cause!

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Your right on young Buxton,first impressions he looks a bit unfit,but was told he was a decent player who loved to attack,and he's not disappointed .
As he gets fitter he's getting better and looks a real player.
He's also good in the air and a great touch --hope he stays until the end of the season (then signs on the dotted line :) )

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

I shook hands with him last night after the game and I think he liked the new nickname I gave him....RHINO..

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Adam buxton is our keiran trippier great addition like two players in one
hatfield gives the team alot of energy, I thought the team that played at burton were becoming a little bit predictable and one paced, but all of a sudden we look like play off material, congrats must go to the management team

Re: Morecambe Thread
 

Rhino is a great name :D

Perhaps the penalty should have been disallowed! There were at least two other Stanley players in the box! ;)

Superb video of Tom Aldred on the "fishy" site.
His eyes were alive with the flush of tuesday nights success, and his first goal for Stanley and first in the Football League. :hothothot
Thoroughly deserved and a great moment in his flourishing career. Well done Tom.
