That's the point, though. Most of their fans accept we were the better team but take exception to the conduct of our management team and our behaviour on the pitch in the last half hour. Having read Phil Whalley's more balanced account, however, none of that concerns me now.

I thought the stuff going down on the Accy's bench looked a lot more entertaining than what was going on on the pitch to be honest so well done Accy staff.

Having now read all articles, including the piece by Phil Whalley, all I can say is they can sing when they are winning but not when they are whinging coz they lost to the better team (as accepted by most posters). And quite how a club can not wish all the best to another team because of a bit of banter, then they don't deserve to be where they are. Having looked at the BBC forums, County fans were so cock sure of a 4 or 5 goal win for their team, I just wonder if their own team thought the same and came completely unstuck. Just wish I could have been there now.

There are a few words from Coley tucked on the end of the 2 min highlights from the game on the BBC Sport website (sorry I don't know how to link). His nose certainly looks as though he's made a few new not friends quite recently .....

I bet he's read this over and over again.

All their comments are a bit sad really...why can't they face up to the fact that despite all their money and big names,they were beaten by a better side. As Coley said in the L.E.T. "if it was all about money you'd have the two chairmen in the boardroom throwing cheques at each other" !!

These lads have the heart and drive to make this a real season to remember. If we can keep hold of Bobby, Symes and all and maybe add 1 or 2 in Jan, maybe the play-offs can become a realistic target.Who knows it could even get better than that!!! One thing for sure, We need more through the turnstiles on a regular basis. Maybe another potentially successful season may persuade a few of those who came in the Conference winning season to return????

Stanley apart,

I've not seen one team at the Crown this season who've made me think that you could call them a real quality side. The nearest I've seen would be Bury in the J.P.T. game where we were looking lost for long periods in that game and at times chasing shadows. That said, they're hardly ripping up trees, are more or less resigned to losing one of their better players sometime soon ( Steven Dawson) and we've already done them twice this season. A hat-trick on the 28th would cap it all!!

If we can pull off a Major result (i.e. beat Leeds and maybe get to Wembley, or beat the Gills on the 2nd of Jan THEN draw a big fish in the F.A. Cup) then maybe, just maybe we could keep hold of our gems.

As for Notts County, it'll be interesting to see where they end up now all the previous regime's money has gone !!! I doubt that the Trembling guy has a real packet to continue to push them forward, I can't see Sven throwing a whole load of Krone ( or whatever the Swede's currency is now) and it may just be that all the big name and big money signings (Schmeichel and Hughes) may just become a rather large loadstone around their necks.

Those two must be on silly money by comparible League Two standards and you only have to look as far as tonight's opponents to see where paying top dollar and the financial supply suddenly stopping gets you. (after all Premier League / Champions League to League One in a couple of seasons)

Trembling was put in there by the Munto finance, all seems like a big scam when you read into it

Beware, Grayson!

Link: BBC Sport - Football - Notts County manager Hans Backe resigns from his job

I wonder where that leaves Sven...

cashman · 15-12-2009, 13:22

Also said Notts only had enough dosh to pay players December n January, be interesting to see if same loyalty is shown by Notts players as our lads did? hope they do, but have me doubts.
