Re: York match thread

Is it the same situation as Joe Lumley, we cant afford not to play him as we cant afford the wages?
Which leaves the question, why not use him as a sub?

What about Onibuje. I bought his shirt on ebay and it was half the price of buying a replica in the shop

To be fair it doesn't look as though he lacks effort or commitment, he is obviously being played out of position - is that his fault? It's the manager who keeps putting him in!

Re: York match thread

And yet few, if any, have directed any criticism at the other striker picked to tear the so can!!ed 'flimsy' York City defence to shreds !.
It is my humble opinion that John Maguire just failed to turn up yesterday !. His head was down, he was not only out of touch with his strike partner (?)...but also the rest of the team.
His attempts at chasing lost balls back were infrequent and ineffective, and on the few occasions he saw an opportunity to put the Goalkeeper under any threat at pass-backs , these were too late and half hearted.
Perhaps he was missing John no ?.... But didn't we all ?. Seems to me that a regular goalscorer does not exist in our current squad, and we need one badly !
The Referee unfortunately did not follow the accepted pattern of being in a position to see what was happening in the more important areas of the pitch and therefore missed one nailed-on penalty. This tackle was made no more than 10 metres from where I was standing and only McCartens feet and no ball contact occurred !...He also I felt allowed some of his decisions to be dominated by home crowd pressure!.....definitely not the man for the job !..

Finally, the White Knight bit !.... How dare anyone even suspect that our dear AccyMad is not a true Fan ?... But then she can fight her own battles !...Seasons greetings AM ..xxx

Re: York match thread

like most I have yet too see Crooks have a good game but you can not blame the lad for the lack of ambition up front, most of our shooting looked like passes back to their goalkeeper, the defence looked sound apart from the free header from which they scored, the team looked tired, which may have had something to do with the J B's excessive warm up programme prior to the match

Re: York match thread

Forgot to mention the 200+ Fans who travelled yesterday !....they were all in great voice and didn't give up on the team ..except one it seemed!...for a minute .
Stood next to Choirboy for the first half , who gave me a demonstration of the various sounds both celebratory and derogatory which he could produce on his red and white Vulvazulu !.
I was impressed to a level where I was seduced in to joining in the assorted chants which the Ultras surrounding me were belting out !..( Well some of them anyway !.).
All in all a good afternoon...except for the result !.

Re: York match thread

A poor day out for the Stanley Faithful. The team did not play up at all against a relatively poor but enthusiastic York side. Their fans too played their part with a great show of "Ultras" flags at the start as the players came out. I really miss our Ultras Flags at our home matches. I thought that Simpson did quite well in goal and that the defence looked quite soild with Tom, Rob and Deano having good games. Can't understand why Liddle has been left out after playing so well consistenetly since his return. Midfield struggled to create any forward pressure and build ups were spasmodic with only occasional bits of flair from Moly. He nearly conjured up a wonder goal with his left wand near the end. Up front we were woeful until McArten came on. He definiteley should have been awarded a penalty as Yonmon says. There was another shout for a penalty on McArten but I think he has been watching Gray and has learnt how to 'fall down'.
With a bit of luck we could have had a draw or even won it. Rob, Tom and Deano, (defenders!) all had chances but they were hit too near their keeper who collected them easily. If one of these had gone in it could have been a different story.
The York lad who got sent off should be banned for 6 matches at least as his 'tackle' on Tom was nothing short of 'assult' and Tom is lucky not to have his leg in plaster today. I thought that the Ref did well then as it was looking like a big rumpus was about to flare up but he cleverly brandished the Red Card immediately, which took the sting out of the situation. Then it got worse as the York lad walked off to a standing ovation by the muppets in the main stand. I have to say that I was really upset by this moronic showing from the York fans who then proceeded to 'Boo' every time Tom touched the ball.....Disgraceful behaviour!
Naismith should have been used as his running at defenders and his crosses could have unlocked their defence.
Hey ho....

Re: York match thread

Its completely baffling why Naismith was not used, in the last game his crosses were pinpoint which led to Maguires equaliser, n he was MoM fer me. But still the super one knows best.
