vs Lincoln

[carpon]

Wasn't at the Lincoln game but followed it on Radio Lancashire. From what was said on the radio, it must have been pretty grim viewing from a Stanley perspective. According to the reporter, only two efforts on goal worth mentioning,both from Boco.
The commentary of Lincoln's second goal just about summed it up when he said that the Stanley defence had "fallen asleep". Coley sounded deflated in his post match interview and promised that the squad would work harder in training to sort out the defensive problems and even went as far to say "that if certain individuals weren't up to the job he'd be looking to bring in players who were."
I respect that everyone is entitled to voice their opinions,but I feel it can only be counter productive by slating certain players.If the players can sense this "negativity" their heads may drop and the situation worsen.Wouldn't it be more beneficial to get behind the lads??
One thing is for sure- we need defensive cover by bringing in TWO experienced defenders.With the deadline looming large on Friday it's going to be an interesting week. If we don't sort out our defensive problems I fear it is going to be another long hard season.

I genuinly though Miles is not upto it as a winger, but more worrying his head went down and he seemed to give up and not want the ball.
I also though proctor and Harris where up against 2 midfielders who had done their homework and had better vision and movement.

as i said, i thought evil had improved since the darlo game but still was short.

I love coleman, and think he is the right man for the job - but he is still leaning at this level.
Its just a shame to go from a tactically mastermind against Wycombe, with a well organised and marshalled team - to a 1 tactic disasted against Lincoln.

Lets hope for an improvement next saturday and a chance to see Carden and D'sane.

As for the Ultras shouting it - the reason I thought it was out of order, was because there where other players on the park showing less commitment and less invention.
McEvilly IMO had a decent go - his pace and fitness was lacking, but he had no support from the midfield - but did link up well at times with Mullins.

2BR commentary suggested he was injured (groin?), and they couldn't believe he wasn't taken off.

As for Carden, I was with a seasoned Chester supporter when he signed for us, and he said, "good player, but you'll be lucky to get 60 mins from him ". I've still not seen him.
