⚽ Match Thread vs. Accrington Stanley 18.01.25 [EFL L2]

An easy 3pts, so superior really

Didzy and Abbott star men, another great game from Bedeau too
I want to see JJ start next game. Grant was OK but there might be a few players now that can give more from that position

[SwalePie]

You make it sound like a backs to the wall lucky win, bizarre.

Maybe Warsop watched it on the radio with the sound off.

To be fair some of what he posted was positive re. the clean sheet, Didzy and JJ.

If you've not seen the Abbott goal...

Thanks for posting. Made my day!

Best Abbott strike
Cheltenham or Acco

Cheltenham for me

Wasn?t the best performance after halftime AGAIN what does he say to them at half time?
Excellent confidence booster for the defence and bass to keep another clean sheet.
Didzy colossal again.
Jarvis did he have a touch?
Whittaker like a rabbit in headlights in a taste of men?s football.
JJ needs more mins in his legs to get back to his best.
Overall take the win no matter how they come.

Wow?A 3-0 win awat from home, in the mix for promotion and you type this.
I reckon SM said something along the lines of ?don?t let them back in to the game? at HT? did that work?

[SmiffyPie]

Heard a couple if people moaning about the second half. What did SM say to them at half time? He probably said careful in case they come out strong but then just contain the game and l will bring on new boys later. They did that plus scored. Bloody freezing but a well constructed game. What do people want? Bust a gut when it's not needed ffs.
Some bloke moaning at SM for not making subs when we had a set piece on the edge of their box, like you're going to sub new players when you're in an attacking position.

Cracking result with a clean sheet as well.

I'd just give the edge to this one. Freeze the film on the exact point of impact. It was still a volley (direct from a corner!) of course, but he let it drop so low it took amazing timing, technique and body control to hit that ball dropping from the side into the opposing corner. Such a difficult skill.

Probably more of a case of what did their manager say/change at half time.

Well it would have been sensible thing to say, maybe something along the lines keep it tight, work hard and try and nick another.
