Match Day Weekend Alliance Premier games

[Chris FGR]

Planning on heading down to Stones v Torquay tomorrow. I know Maidstone are shite these days - what are Torquay like?

Shite. Unless they're playing us, in which case they look like Brazil.

 

[DontBringBertie]

Level with us (and above you) in the form table for last 5 games...

But it's commonly accepted we're shit.

[Chris FGR]

Thought that was in.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Arse. I could have been down the pub.

 

[doveranddover]

had been better in 2nd half, but piss poor defending again

 

[gijsbert_bos]

All over now, surely?

Who can stop the Lincoln Loco?
Choo choo!

 

[GuiseleySteve]

Yep game over. Annoying fuckers. Why can't you be shit like everyone else?

 

[gijsbert_bos]

You know the answer. 'Cos Danny Cowley is just too good AND clever.

Still on for the treble.

 

[Forza Imps]

Didn't even give 100% in that game, in all honesty we weren't at our best. Ground it out though and it's another three points on the board. 5 points clear, Barrow to come and then FA Cup 4th round on Saturday. Happy days.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Only us recently

Yep. The only game we've lost in all competitions since Barrow at home on the 17th September. Hopefully we can avenge that defeat on Tuesday.

 

[doveranddover]

We beat you on the 24th sept,, so probably since then

 

[The_Boss]

Nice result for us, just keeps that glimmer of hope for a little longer, just to hurt even more when we finally realise we have no chance whatsoever of making the playoffs.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Ah yes. Missed that one!

 

[Davidimp]

1 defeat in 23 games enough said.

 

[Master D]

They have solid players all over and do gamesmanship as proficiently as Crawley 2011. The falling over, cynical fouls and Farman must have wasted days this season on goal kicks. It all adds up to CHAMPIONS ELECT I'm afraid.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Farman often seems to pick up a knock around 70 minutes...reminds me of the tactical timeouts Stevenage used to do a few years back. You could set your watch by them...

 

[The Jovial Forester]

That poke in the Dover lad's eye was quite comical from Farman.

 

[Luke Imp]

Not a great game and certainly not at our best, but a pretty comfortable evening bar a 5/10 minute spell in each half, particularly at the end of the first. One of those games where you just dig in, get the job done with minimum fuss and move on.

Probably couldn't have asked for a better game after Ipswich in terms of the style. Would have been much more of a challenge had we played a possession based side. Felt we got dragged into a bit of long ball ourselves at times, which is ok when Rhead's up there but as we saw from the second half, when he's not, the ball doesn't stick very well.

I was slightly concerned for us from set pieces because we're not a particularly tall side and when Rhead went off, there was only Waterfall and Raggett who were a decent height to deal with anything.

Thought Dover were dreadful really. Waterfall and Raggett must have headed well over 100 aimless hoofs tonight. To their credit, they kept 3 up front all game, but Miller wide left?

Kinnear does not like either Cowley one bit. Moan, moan, moan. "They're doing well, but it's easy when they try to sign all the best players". That'd be the TWO players we've bought, and I didn't realise *trying* to sign players had a positive impact on our performances. In all fairness, he was quite complimentary about the Club.

 

[Luke Imp]

Oh, and was Marriott's miss at the beginning of the second half as bad as it looked live?

 

[B2TF]

Great stuff Lincoln, one of our brother Football League clubs, could not be more pleased for you, you've served your time in this shit hole, time to get back where you belong. Keep the Tin Pot shit out of the elite leagues. Where's Crazy Guy I wanna give him a great big man-hug.

 

[Chris FGR]

Oh, and was Marriott's miss at the beginning of the second half as bad as it looked live?

Yes it was shit. I would get rid of him immediately.

We'll take him as a favour if you like.

Watching last night. Dover played into Lincoln's hands with their hoof ball. Be interesting to see how Lincoln would deal with a side like us coming to their place and playing it out from the back and dominating possession. Hard to bully teams if you can't get the ball.

You mean a bit like when we came to yours in November!?

And got outplayed for 70 minutes. We should have been 3 or 4 up by the time we gifted you a goal. Then you nicked 2 goals from set pieces. Smash and grab at it's finest.

Can't play like that at home surely?

 

[Davidimp]

Well you've seen play on tv twice in a week should give you some idea of we play at home.
We do try to get it down and play, like to switch it from side to side quickly.
By the time you guys come here late March could be too late for you.

 

[Chris FGR]

But we're better then Ipswich or Dover.

You are a good side though tbf.

 

[Luke Imp]

Kinnear just keeps on giving.

"They don't make it easy, they get it up there, especially when Matt Rhead is on. It's a long ball to the big guy, but the way they play is the way they play, good luck to them.

"We play differently to some. Everyone has their way. They don't make it easy but why should they?"

"We play differently".

It was bold to play 3 up front with no midfield IMO.
