******, suffering from insomnia so I thought I'ld get up and follow the game, ONLY TO
FORGET THE EXACT TIME DIFF... Well done STANLEY,................ BUGGA.
 
Good win, dominated first 45 mins could have been 2/3 up, but took it right to the wire.:eek: fer me no-one had a bad game, just the last 30 yds let us down, some great passing football, onwards n upwards reds.:)
 
First time I've seen the reds this season, was impressed by our style of play, especially in the first half where aldershot seemed to just chase after our lads for the whole half. The new lad playing at centre half was extremely good, gave us a bit of height at the back and marked the number 9 completely out of the game. Great result.

Thing was Sherry at least 2 of those first half offsides were easily onside,the liner on the cowshed musta been on a bung or blind or stupid. TomD try n get on a bit more, Best football ive seen since Walt Galbraiths days.

Well the most one sided 1-0 ive ever seen. Really could and should have been 4 or 5.

Was impressed with some of our forward play, Boco again looked like the 1 to unlock the Shots who no doubt where set up for a point. Molyneux is starting to look the real part on the left hand side.

MOM for me was Atkinson at the back, he never put a foot wrong for almost the entire 90 minutes. Toto has got some serious work to do to get back into the team for me.

Sheppard was very disappointing and really should have scored at least 2. Great to see Podge make an impact by coming on and scoring :)

Roll on Wimbledon away. :D

Atkinson agree,play him oer Toto anytime fer me, The difference wi his distribution also was much better.
 
Thought acci were superb today against a well organised team.Real team effort and the way we moved the ball was top drawer.
First mention must go too the people who have prepared the pitch,,which allowed us to play this way
When you play one up front you have to retain the ball and be patient and keep probing,whilst waiting for the opposition to switch off.
We were excellent at this,although there were one or two people wanted it just kicked forward ---- unbelievable really.
Really exciting times at the crown ground,and came away more than content.
No mom for me as they all could have got it
 
As I was working today, I thought the team are in for a 0-0. I was willing one player to stick it in the onion bag. Yet when I leave the comfort of the seat whilst watching Final Score, up pops Podge to sink the Shot (pun very much intended). If as others have said the Atkinson was a better option than Toto, then so be it. It might just put a thought into Toto's head that he shouldnot be getting booked so often. Would possibly like to see Bohan Dixon in midfield. From the little I have seen of him, he looks very useful and his height and speed could be interesting to watch. Onwards and upwards.
 
Decent game the Shots came with a game plan which was to defend and counter and first half it certainly did frustrate Stanley not helped by some terrible descion a by the liner on the Whinney Hill side, second half far more fluid half from the Reds but it looked like it may be just one of those days but persistence payed off and kept us in the chasing pack.

Nice & touching tribute before kick off to those who so tragically lost their lives at Hillsborough and the fight for justice.

However Cashy, there were still the anguished cries around me of 'Get it up t'field !'.... and one lone voice imploring, at intervals of 30 seconds...the team to go 'FORWARDS STANLEY...PLEASE GO FORWARDS !! '.
Now all this not-so-intelligent barracking was not only disconcerting, but also quite surprising by the fact that the perpetrators have not yet realized that what they are seeing is Paul Cook's excellent strategies being translated into action by his well-prepared squad of players.
The fact that the mixture of control through possession, linked to excellent passing and eventual scoring led to another well-deserved Stanley victory will I hope lead the
big-boot boys to a clearer understanding of the type of intelligent and entertaining Football we can expect to see for as long as Paul Cook and Leam Richardson are at the helm !!..... I JUST LOVE IT !!.

To be honest ive been saying that fer a while,even told Cooky the same at a meeting at the Crown, To be sure not as consistent yet, but thats no surprise wi all those young uns, but still learning their trade, n i think consistency will come wi experience n this management team, Its more than i ever dreamed or expected at this early stage, So well done all concerned,;):) Wouldn't mind betting Yonmon agrees wi this?
 
In total agreement yonmon,the most pleasing aspect is system is set and doesn't matter who he plays,they all know the job required of them.Teams will attempt to disrupt it (4-3-3 makes it hard),but if you have a good surface to play on one and two touch footy is a joy to watch.
They went defensive after half time and just left rankine up top,this allowed our fullbacks to join the party,and both were excellent today.
