I can't believe we won, you were the form team in the league and we got bet by Warrington, it was like David v Goliath, nice goal by Dale Wright but not sure if he meant it or not.
Andy Paxton may have been time wasting in net but all goalies do it, the chap in goal for Warrington vexed us off last week for his constant time wasting as much as Paxton probably vexed you lot off yesterday, saying that the pitch was in poor state, it's been raining all week in Prescot and the pitch was only just playable on Tuesday so to have 2 games in 5 days is a credit to the hard work the club put in, I believe that on a decent pitch in decent conditions the scoreline would have been alot different.
I would really like to thank all 400+ for making the journey to see us, what did you think of our ground, it's just a standard ground in the league, not one of the better and not one of the worst (harrogate), never seen the clubhouse, refreshments and the ground in general that busy, disappointed more programmes weren't produced, as we anticipated the extra fans turning up, at the end some fax fan offered me £5 for mine, which I rejected, I take it you get this problem alot, no programmes, long queues, no pies left etc.
Good luck against Fylde on Tuesday and hope to see you at the Shay in February.
p.s apologies for the bugler, one day he will learn a tune.
haha. well i have to aplogisine for last nights remarks by me, i was a little bit annoyed because not to be disrespectful i really didnt expect to lose that one. i know that the rain affected the pitch and i know that it was the same for both sides.
your ground actually i was pleasently suprised actually by your ground it was a ctually quite good one of the best maybe alongside Lancaster in that respect, and a lot better than Mossley, Harrogate atc.
yeah we had it at Harrogate on the first time we went there last season they announced things over the tannoy throuout the game, there are now no pies left, there is now no hot food left at all, was funny as cause we took 500 or so to Harrogate new years day last season and they didnt expect it, happens at a lot of grounds although you have an excuse of notr playing us before so your catering people wouldnt have known how much you could bring.
yeah i suppose everyone timewaistes, he was doing his celebrating infront of the town fans when you scored but am over that now.
i just never realised what a scalp we were at this level, am quite proud actually that a victory againt us brings the celebratery scenes there were from your players at the end, i didnt know what a win against us menat, i suppose you were the first team to do it in the league this season. so quite proud that were such a big scalp for teams.
apologies anyway was just a bit annoyed cause b4 yesterday we had won 9 from 10 in the league and drawn the other and were still 8 points off top now were 11 points off top 5 games in hand still but we have to win all them now to get back up there.
yeah cheers am sure the players will be looking to inflict a battering on AFC Flyde on tuesday wouldnt want to be them if we turn up and play like we have done most of the season they could be in trouble if we play the best we can,
you look a decent side though with a decent enough stadium especially at this level you should make the play offs.
yeah see you down the shay, you might be one of the very first set of fans to be able to see the new stand open and in use,
