Re: Fleetwood thread
BBC website shows Fleetwood having 12 shots, none on target. Stanley had 8, with 50% on target. Simples.

Good to see Webber getting on the score sheet.
James Beattie must be on cloud 9 after beating one of the title contenders.
WD JB for turning it round.

Re: Fleetwood thread
Great result, first half Fleetwood shaded, but never outplayed us, 2nd half was only one team wi the heart to go fer it, got exactly what we deserved.IMHO.

Re: Fleetwood thread
Cashman,
did Fleetwood look likely to be challenging for the title at the end of the season?

Can't argue with that. Probably the first time this season ( off what I get chance to watch ) I can honestly say Stanley deserved that.

Agree there Cashy... BUT the gloss was taken off for me by the attitude of some 'Fans' ( ? ) in the Main Stand who were actually booing the team in the first half...accompanied by the usual ' Get it up t'field'. When will they learn that a pass-back to the Goalkeeper is often the only one possible !, and not a negative move.
But to Boo players who were at the time holding Fleetwood's dangerous strikers so well, or at any time is worse than despicable, and unworthy of anyone calling themselves a Stanley fan !
Rant over !.....well done JB and his diamond geezers !....more of the same at Northampton on Saturday PLEASE !

Re: Fleetwood thread
Never saw that coming!!!
I disagree about Fleetwood,there by far the best team we've played IMHO.
They never let us settle for 70 minutes,and there team was full of pace.
Full marks to the coaching staff for altering our shape after half time,as we struggled with the 4-2-3-1 which they played.
Difference for me was we consistently held a high line and challenged them to get behind us.
The defence won,despite the quality of opposition,keeper never had to make a save of note.
Aldred was immense again and the others did there jobs.
On a side note,despite being out numbered for long periods,Joyce and murph showed what Acci is all about, enjoying the battle !!!
Well done lads

Re: Fleetwood thread
To answer the question in my first post on this thread the Cod Army were floundering open mouthed at 9.35 but not at the brilliance of Stanley's football, as we have played better and lost! Having said that we made Fleetwood look pretty ordinary with a combination of outstanding defending, constant pressure on the ball and some incisive attacking play. A great substitution of Webber for Bowerman, who hadn't really had a lot of joy tonight, did the trick and he gave their defence plenty to think about, kept his cool and hammered the penalty right down the middle. The Cod Army support were floating away with their tails between their gills well before the end as they knew they wouldn't repeat their get out of jail card trick against Stanley, unlike as they did on Saturday. A great night to savour and well done to JB and PS who seem to have given to the lads what Ian Wright famously once said of Arsene Wenger - "He gives us unbelievable belief"!
Joyce and Murphy once again astounded me with terrific performances!

Re: Fleetwood thread
Great performance and more than matched a very good side. They move the ball quickly, put pressure on the ball and we strong. Work rate throughout our team was impressive.
Hard pushed to call Man of the Match, as all 11 were up for it and played their parts. Winnard unlucky not to get it as kept Tyson, who is lightning quick and too good for this level, in good check.

Re: Fleetwood thread
With 16 mins to go I thought a draw would be a good result considering.
There were a few penalty shouts for stanley, the third given and more denied after. I'm not sure of the ones at the Clayton end but I expected the 2nd claim to be given for what looked like a block with an arm on the floor.
Not the best display by Stanley, but the effort was there to grind out a win against a better side who missed a few glorious chances.
