Match Day Thread Accrington Stanley v Sunderland - Wednesday 17th March - KO 19:00

I bet it was @clockstander and his time machine!

 

From a fiver?
I'd be ****ting it for tomorrows race.

 

I’m not sure why he says O’Nien didn’t play well other than the “I have to find negative stuff to post” (as if to prove a point I made during the game). He made a mistake trying to beat a player when he should’ve cleared the ball and missed a sitter he should’ve scored. Barring 2 mistakes (one of which was a striker mistake) he seemed solid to me. Made tackles, won headers and played decent passes out of defence. He wasn’t to blame for any of their chances except for one foul. He just wasn’t as involved as in the last few as the ball was moved in other areas by the opposition. Maybe Accrington saw how effective he has been and didn’t play that channel because of that.

for wolfy to say he was shocking really is just looking for something to be negative about so he fits his self made persona!

as @Smug in Boots says, I’d hate being anywhere near him in the ground as he seems to be nothing but negative

 

Wouldn't you be more content bothering horses or changing Simas nappies ?

 

“If we take our chances we win”... not if we take ours you don’t!!

 

You don't tend to score a header with your 2nd touch.

 

I watched about 6 times could see bugger all don’t know what was bugging him?

 

I so don’t want to get carried away but it’s hard not to at the minute

 

Why not, that's yer job ...

... just give in and it'll all be fine

 

If the stadium was open there would be a massive crowd in for Sat. Atmosphere would be amazing. Shame we can't be there but I'm still uber confident the juggernaut will roll on.

 

Is it not Saturday yet for the Lincoln game? I'm no good at this waiting marlakey

 

Thankfully the players seem to be in the same frame of mind ...

... and that's vital if you want success.

 

Control those controlables folks...

Nice.

 

I remember when we were in this division before under Denis Smith, from about the beginning of October I felt confident we would go up,even when we didn't play particularly well and came unstuck at places like Aldershot and York,there was something about our performances,players,attitude that seemed to have a certain conviction about it. I know we hit the top of the league early that season,so different from now,but we were looking over our shoulder until the last 7 or 8 matches or so,...more or less from the Wigan mudslide game.
I haven't had that feeling again,....not once,....since we've been in this division this time round......until now!!

 

Imagine the atmosphere on Saturday...

... Trophy paraded, going for the automatics and 35,000 in there.

 

LJ is certainly impressing me more and more. His use of the subs last night was excellent,and he seems to be able to keep the players left out ready to take their chance.

 

You've done it now.....I'll have to think it again for about the 10,000th time....this ****ing virus!!

 

4/9 favourite now.
