Weekend Match Thread

This time Rhead converts from the spot, 2-2.

 

[Southern Shayman]

Some Halifax fans are embarrassing to the club. And people call our support shit, I'd be embarrassed if I was them.

Can't wait to hear about this... *yawn*

 

[EnglishRed]

2 nil

Lee Fowler out of the wilderness and a Jennings penalty, redemption after his last minute miss against the Vision.

The Great Escape is so on.

0-0 at Fleet for AFCR&D. Fleet have a very strong home record so not the worst result if it stays like this, especially having heard some of the other scores - Kings Langley and Chalfont are losing, St Ives are 0-0 at HT Royston were pegged back at North Greenford to 1-1 and no word from Egham who are at Potters Bar (neither club seems to be bothered to tweet today).

That said things are highly likely to change against us in the other games.

edit: Late update of 0-0 for Egham, so none of our rivals winning at HT!

The Great Escape is so on.

Called it last week in the match thread. Fantastic time for them to play Cheltenham after this (provided they do complete the win today), go in with confidence and nothing to lose.

As things stand Kiddy 7 points off safety with 15 to play. Starting to get in the realms of realistic.

 

[Semi-skimmed Silk]

I wish we didn't keep facing teams when they suddenly discover form. Although considering our attempts at "defending" I can only assume our team is helping Kiddy stay up so all our fans can enjoy the food next year.

 

[Tranmerewhite]

Just the 72% possession for us first half

 

[FGRJC]

Can't wait to hear about this... *yawn*

They are a bunch of moaners any decision against Halifax Is a bad decision apparently... Pathetic

 

[EnglishRed]

I can't believe the BBC are reporting the foul count as Halifax 2 FGR 7. They aren't a dirty team. They simply arent!

*stamps foot*

To be fair, the penno decision has been described as baffling by even your own commentators. He is givinh free kick after free kick against you, but no bookings and can't get a handle on the game. He is also so inept he fucked up the kick off at the start of the second half.

 

[CrazyImp]

Ahead for the first time, Muldoon, 3-2.

Congratulations to managerial messiah Neil Aspin on his result as well today.

 

[Tom Fgr]

I've never known a club moan at EVERY decision ahhaha

Aaaaaaaand it's gone.

 

[FGRJC]

Abusing dale Bennet, let's hope it's not racist this time...

 

[Chris FGR]

Halifax fans definitely an abusive lot. Wouldn't shock me if some of it's racist again. Hard to tell tbh.

Dale B's getting the last laugh today.

 

[Jemfy]

Diamonds running out of time here. Quite a few good chances but just not finding the breakthrough. Elsewhere Kings Langley have taken the lead. As best as can be told by twitter they are the only rivals that will gain points on us as things stand right now.

 

[yellow]

Kidderminster can you stop please.

Really not getting the rub of the green here, Lorraine taken down by the 'keeper and booked for diving when he would have had an open goal after knocking the ball past him.

 

[The_Boss]

Happy to help Kiddie's attempts to stay up!

 

[Southern Shayman]

Halifax fans definitely an abusive lot. Wouldn't shock me if some of it's racist again. Hard to tell tbh.

Dale B's getting the last laugh today.

This'll be last time I rise to this ridiculousness. Dale Bennett starts borderline riot in last game because he was pissed about losing. Oshodi also boots a ball at a young child. From this no racism was ever officially complained about or proven. Pennock even rang Town fans due to his embarassment at your players.

Bennett is then booed on his return by an admittedly boo happy fan base.

So you pipe up with some "wouldn't be surprised if it was racist, again" shite.

 

[Southern Shayman]

As I type that, thug Bennett starts another scuffle and is promptly booked

But no, FGR aren't a dirty side.

Clearly talented but it's such a shame they've gone down the Crawley route.

 

[Chris FGR]

Lol. Unlike you I'm actually at the Shay. Can't wait to get the fuck out of this shithole. Every time I've come up here your fans have been a disgrace. Poor Dale and Jon getting dogs abuse again, well done to them rising above it. Top lads and winners, unlike your mob.

 

[GTFCfish]

#twohorserace

(If it wasn't already)

Shock of the day Grimsby dropping points to a team at the bottom, we don't usually.......

 

[GuiseleySteve]

Well that's a bonus three points

 

[Southern Shayman]

Lol. Unlike you I'm actually at the Shay. Can't wait to get the fuck out of this shithole. Every time I've come up here your fans have been a disgrace. Poor Dale and Jon getting dogs abuse again, well done to them rising above it. Top lads and winners, unlike your mob.

Congratulations, as I've said - good side - shame how you go about it.

Hope your top boys finally get out of this league, to be mocked by a different set of fans.

 

[Tranmerewhite]

Plenty of control with little creativity.

No idea how Mackreth is in the team, he was binned from our youth system for a reason. Very lightweight and one trick pony.

 

[Tom Fgr]

Very easy win today, Halifax are a horrific club. Laughable attendance, 1300 and that's swelled by Fgr numbers. lol. Certain relagation for that miserable bunch of twats.

 

[Jemfy]

FT 0-0.

Fleet sounded decent, but Diamonds seemed to have enough to win it in the second half, all except for putting the ball in the net. The 90th min penalty appeal was apparently a complete stonewall foul.

It could be worse, only 3 sides have gone there and won despite their league position. It will still feel like 2 points dropped on what is looking like a day when we could have pulled a little clear. Instead it's relatively static. From the rest of the top 5 Kings Langley move in to 2nd on their own as they won and St Ives lost to drop down. Royston drew 1-1 and Chalfont lost 2-0, but the real damage comes from Egham getting a late winner against Potters Bar in the 94th min. Could have done with one of those ourselves.
