Accrington (H)

[Arrested development 56]

Should of had game win by HT. First half was excellent. 

Second half we lost a bit of confidence and resorted to hoofball but still should have scored. 

Matthews made a fantastic save at the end to preserve a point. 

Better than the usual shite served up.

Didn’t think it was that bad tbh 

Roll on next week

Fully agree, dropped our standard second half but it’s a step in the right direction. 

[Rizlar 61]

Let's hope we can keep this up until end of season

That would have been a proper heart breaker. It actually came two or three seconds after the 4 minutes was up.

Got very cold

As said first pretty good second half we never got started mom(first half)dodoo had their full back on toast so don't understand why we switched him 2nd half 

[Burndens Bogs 515]

Decent first half and we should have been 3-0 up at the break.

All got a bit sloppy in the 2nd half and Accy looked stronger as the game went on, they could have nicked it with the last kick of the game, what a sickener that would have been.

Cold, very cold.

I've seen this said a few times this afternoon.  Dodoo was only switched to the other wing on 80 minutes which was fair enough as he (& Politic) had done nowt in the 2nd half. 

[Casino 2,360]

Our left side was an absolute liabilty second half

The left back v their right winger was reminiscent of alonso v duff

Destroyed him, but to be fair fleming got no help from dodoo

Thought they scored at the end though but the lad took too long to get his shot out 

so frustrating when you think we could of had another 10points which would of give us a fighting chance

Missed last minute of extra time and Matthews save, what is frustrating is January when we sent players back with key players out and had no replacements just a few wins in that period could of given us a chance.

This. Dodoo went out of game badly for 20 mins after that ankle knock, we did same as a team from about 50 mins to that switch then finished stronger apart from that last attack of theirs. 

Not a bad game to be fair,  Accrington were honest and had two or three with a bit of quality. First half from us was good apart from final ball or effort at goal. 

[boltondiver 1,367]

Really enjoyed the first half

[Mounts Kipper 2,511]

I must say our support was good again today, very supportive, let’s hope KH mentions that as he’s very quick to complain, when in my mind he’s no reason to.

Just got in, fuck...its gotten colder a d wetter as the day has gone on, i wont be having a go at the wife for putting the heating on 🥶

[Leyther_Matt 356]

Politic looking to attack and then falling over the ball was pretty much the final two thirds of our season summed up in the space of a few seconds. 

[Morizio 160]

I was pissed so it was a bit meh

Helped some accy lads at the train station get home. Shitting emselves, the soft cunts. 

[Take Hunt Off 225]

Dodoo had a great first half second not so good as they changed tactics 

Not much on rhs but twice Lowe made good runs & was ignored 

Could have lost in the end we don’t seem to deal with big boot up the middle losing too many second balls.Matthews saved us at the end don’t understand why he gets criticised so much.

Politic tried to pass the ball around their penalty box he should stick to what comes natural & shoot every time.

She can reach the thermostat

[marple whites 104]

For once we had a few players that played well and that makes the difference.

thought dodo, Bryan, Crawford and Lowe played well

their goalie made 3 great saves first half

bit more even second half

but overall - decent performance and just shows how mediocre this division is

Next stop Wimbledon 

[Francis Fogarty 50]

We had the best of the first half and should have had at least a couple. Second half was scrappy to say the least but we bucked up when JD changed sides. Keeper made a couple of match winning saving saves. All in all not a bad day apart from the cold.
