Tonights Game!! - Page 2

They have a cheek to complain about our ground and the entry price for kids is the same home or away end. I too was very disappointed by the attendance from Morecambe. I honestly thought they would have matched halifax but hey ho, they must have felt it in there water, the 2-0 thrashing that is. Having just got back and found out that telewest broadcast broke down for the first 15 minutes of the match, not impressed, however, repeat on at 0030 hours so will record that. Excellent atmosphere, excellent match, top of the league and I'm beginning to believe this will be our year, but only when it is mathematically certain.

P.S. Blackburn Raver, there were actually 3 league managers watching the game, as you point out quite rightly, Newell and Cotterill but also Simon Grayson from Blackpool also in attendance, BTW why do you insist on coming on an Accy web site to post drivel?

think the lads played well in the first half,they stuck together in the second and closed ranks. but i thought morcambe had a disadvantage of not playing on there perfect pitch...................... see attached. the lake usually has more boats in..............lmao

we looked class first half..Always first to the ball in the air and on the floor..Beating players for fun it was amazing to watch..2 fantastic finishes won it in the end...I thought morecambe may be a bit more of a challenge but there was nothing there until second half..Perkins is a midget but a good player..Another fantastic save by rob elliot..that was immense...we were immense....stanerleeee...stanerleeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.. .stanerleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

Finch_brfc · 21-02-2006, 08:27

No complaints from me. The better team won on the night and the best of luck in the league, IF your ground is accepted as being up to standard. My understanding is that to date, your ground has NOT been accepted and needs a lot of work doing on it to achieve the standard required.

I don't expect you to accept that fact but I know that your powers that be know the real situation as do others in similar positions throught the Conf.

The team is up to standard, the ground can be improved. I like it that way round. Lots of teams need improvement ( Morecambe is a good example... Perkins and Twiss OK the rest woefull, there No 5 need to get a neck and Kempson looks and plays like a dolloper..... he's changed since he played for us)

Eh?!? All we need is a first aid room for the supporters, and a police cctv room...What's that gonna take to build? a day or two max!

as a Morecambe fan it pains me to say this, but you played very well lastnight, and easily look like your position in the league is justified. your defence is solid and i can't remember a time when you looked threatened by our strikers which is embarrassing. you outplayed us all over the field, and we got our tactics completely wrong. have no complaints about the result lastnight. the only thing is about the mfc non league forever banner. think that was a bit harsh, as we are all in this league, and trying to get out of it. i know that's all part of rivalry and stuff but i think it went a bit far with regards to inciting our fans. but you support your team in your own way and you're entitled to your opinion. well done on last night's game and i don't doubt that based on performances like that (whether you believe you were at your best lastnight or not) that you deserve to go up from this League as Champions. and i just hope (and i'm sure a few of you do too) we come up with you!! but playing like we did lastnight, i'm not too sure!!

Yawn!

Same old tactics, same old wind-up bs!

I'd like Morecambe to win the playoffs so we can renew our rivalry on the pitch next season if only it wasn't for the crap that some of their supporters post on our forum

No need to answer any comments from M'cambe posters - our team did that last night. The opposition reply to our two great goals and superb performance in every department amounted to one decent shot from sub Twiss! All those free kicks in dangerous positions they had and it was more Bend-it-like-Blair (Tony of that ilk) than Beckham. One, if it hadn't been deflected, would have ended up nearer the corner flag than the goal. Frankly, as soon as I heard they'd signed up Mr Brannan when they did I knew they were desperate. Last night he equalled 90 per cent of his performances for Stanley - one of lethal, seering anonymity with occasional bouts of mind-numbing ineptitude. I must praise young Kempson from `Thugs-r-Us` though who managed not to cripple anyone during his otherwise calamitous defensive performance. (Everytime he appears he looks more like a Bentley clone - except in ability). A perfect evening...

Morecambe fans didn't make as much of an impact last night as when we went there at the start of the season.

Fantastic atmosphere.

I saw, then stood with my best friend from school, who supports Clitheroe and Rovers, and came to his first Stanley match because of all the press excitment. He was impressed with the standard of football, the excitment on the terraces, and although not a total convert is planning to attend at least four more games this season.

The dream gets nearer still.

Christies Child · 21-02-2006, 11:24

OK as I said I don't expect you to accept what I've said about your ground and non acceptance at the moment by the league.

However, I prefer to believe my info from someone who ACTUALLY knows.

The truth will out sooner or later.

Congrats from me on being Champions elect by the way.
