From t'Fishy site:

Five goals in the final 22 minutes of the game changed what would have been a great away win into a night to forget for Stanley.

It just amuses me, on many different levels.

Also don't quite know what to make of this:

On Monday evening we travel to Altrincham to entertain Manchester United

Juggling, perhaps?

Yes. Trouble is football isn't a 68 minute game.

One of the funniest quotes of the year

Onwards and upwards and all that

From the Orange Football site;

The Imps fell behind after only 11 minutes when John Miles found the top corner with a long-range shot. Lincoln then had a let off when an effort from Jamie Clarke was blocked on the line.

City were jeered off at half-time but manager Peter Jackson responded by bringing on three substitutes and changing to 4-4-2.

Substitute Adrian Patulea levelled after 68 minutes with a simple tap in after an effort from Ben Wright came back off goalkeeper Kenny Arthur.

Patulea then hit the post with a low shot before Lincoln went in front after 78 minutes when Sam Mullarkey fired in a deep cross which was headed in by Aaron Brown. Five minutes later Brown set up Wright for a simple tap-in.

Accrington then collapsed in stoppage time conceding two more goals. Mullarkey's hard work set up Patulea who slammed the ball home from inside the penalty area. Then Patulea was brought down by Colin Murdock and Lee Frecklington converted the penalty.

And the stats last night on the same site said that we had a total of 3 shots (1 on target) against Lincoln's 14.

Who's surprised we lost with numbers like that?

Large sections of the ground, behind the goals and in the stands where chanting "4-4-2" prior to half time... hmm people power?

We did. We had a statue at right back by the name of James Bell. If he is a footballer I am a Dutchman. He didn't make one tackle all the game. He did put one good cross in though, unforutnately it was into his own penalty area.

Redraine · 15-12-2008, 15:50

Make that 9 men then. I share your opinion BTW.

He will never be 'one of the next crop of footballers to be playing for Stanley' because he is not a footballer. I am sure that if his name wasn't Bell he wouldn't even have a contract.

if he was any good he would be in the team week in week out not on the beach. like smith out on lone to over teams to get better. yes he when out to prestscot should be out at places like fleetwood over higher levels but not so for me his name is contrac (sorry of the spelling)

What a silly thing to say. Bell would have to be better than King, Cavanagh, Richardson and Murphy to get played every week, not just 'any good'.
Can anyone honestly say he was drastically poorer than any of our other players during the game? From the commentary they all seemed to be equally inept in the second half.
