Todays game 'gainst Creepy Crawley

Outback Ozzy · 17-09-2005, 16:50

What a match, shame the officials (once again) cannot match the enthusiasm of the players. OK no one got booked (don't know how), we had a clear penalty turned down and the first Crawley goal should have been a throw in - but the assistant missed it going out, just a couple of hundred sat in the stands didn't. Never mind. Rommy looks an exciting signing, nice to see him lay the ball off for Andy Mangan. Adam Cottier has got rose coloured glasses as in the programme he feels that Rocky is a solid player. On the few occasions I have managed to get to games this season, Most of the crowd have been calling for his head! He is crap at the moment and giving the fans the eeby geebies. We need a central defender who will give confidence to the remainder of the defence. Both Gary Roberts and Brown looked good on the wings. The best thing though was the Crawley managers write up in the NLP and in the programme that Paul Mullin had only scored twice this season, and he hoped that that was the case at the end of the match. Well yes it is, but we have other goal scorers as well. Keep it up Stanley, lets go for 5 against Aldershot

I've written a report, but can't post it until the official site is updated. I'm going out now, so I probably won't be able to post it now until tomorrow.

I would have posted it here, but when I cut and pasted it the report was all formatted wrongly and was filled with weird smilies.

It could have been worse, we could have drawn or lost.

Three points.

it says on the BBC website a stunning gary roberts put us into the lead for a third time! It was stunning but not as stunning as the handling by the crawley keeper!

Thanks Jimbo. I wasn't sure what time I'd be back from Lancaster tonight, where I've been hob-knobbing with actor Paul McGann.

Yet another scintillating read from the pen (or should that be keyboard) of Mr. Monkey. Well done and many thanks.
