Boston United leading 1-0 at the moment. Ben Fairclough scoring on 32 minutes.

I was really impressed with that ginger lad that you had in midfield.
Easily your best player.

He was just poor all round, even when he was playing for you....

Oh please, he was poor at times but hardly a 'homer'. I've no idea why you had a player sent off though, i was York Street side of the halfway line.
As this was my first game for several weeks i enjoyed it. I still think we don't close down quick enough in the middle of the park though.
check the grassy knoll and the chips and curry :bunny

.....you mean the one with the black outfit on and a pack of yellow and red cards....? .....
You must have been the only person in the ground who was impressed with him......jeez.....

He was sent off for a hard and it seemed deliberate and unnecessary follow through with his boot....

How much better do we look with a bit of pace in the side?
Why did it take so long for the management to make the changes that were crying out to be made in September?
Well done Wardy, I thought you were superb today. In fact I didn't see a weak link anywhere today even if Rossy is an infuriating little bugger!!!
We look a different side from the miserable shambles we were before Xmas, all for the addition of a couple of young hungry lads and the removal of two of the poorest players we've had since returning to non league.
-
The referee was very poor for both sides. I have to say though I thought Gloucester should have had a penalty when Ward made a challenge in the second half. From my view point towards the York St End it looked pretty blatant but obviously I wa quite a way away. Did anybody get a clear view of wheter it was or not?
Thought the young Defence played very well dealing with everything pretty comfortably, both in the air and on the ground. Gloucester had a fair bit of possesion in our half, but never really looked like scoring.
-
It was stone wall!! But if it had been awarded would they have scored?
Awful challenge on Stainfield, red card justified.
-
There wasn't even a foul for the red card. Scott went in 30/50 with the keeper and then Stephen Merchant decided to get in the way to protect the keeper, as defenders do. Scott was stretching for the ball not going in on the defender. If you decide to run across the motorway expect to get hit by a car.

Best referee of the season for me,he took no crap from whinging players (yellow card for dissent),yes he did keep blowing his whistle a lot but if it's a foul you cannot complain.
Linesmen got 1 decision wrong each so well done too then as well.
How anyone can argue about the sending off is beyond me it was a horrific attempt at getting a ball he had no chance of getting.Hope he gets at least 3 game ban should be 9 game though it was a disgrace.
Shame he spoilt it as it was a good game with both sides playing good football in a enjoyable game.
Never a penalty either (another good decision) 2 players going for ball and falling over 1 trying to get penalty the other a freekick (i call it cheating).
The only blip on the referee was the forearm smash on SWD went unpunished not sure why it was missed maybe ref bottled it as he had just sent the animal off.
So well done to all it's a lot better watching us now the injection of youth is shinning through

No. It's a mans game and a contact sport.

Rubbish, Scott went for the ball with the keeper and the defender put himself between both player with no intention of touching the ball. If you put yourself in harms way, expect to get hurt.
Terrible decision by the referee.
-
That lad 100% deserved a red and 3 match ban, horrible challenge and needless! Bazza took the ball and he dived in from behind knee high with the single intention to injure Stainfield. Disgusting.
Also it was a stone wall penalty that wasn't given - ward's inexperience showing
he was brilliant today though

Nah, happened right in front of us, feel for the guy as there was no malice just eagerness in the challenge but he was so late, clumsy and from behind, he left no option but a red. As for our defender putting himself in harms way, the ball had gone, he was no where near it and you can't just take a lunge at anything, anywhere on the pitch.
-
He dived in before the keeper collected the ball, the defender got in the way and hurt himself. If he didn't want the ball the then defender is taking a chance by putting himself in there and deserves what he gets.
-
Not rubbish it's true.ask for the DVD
If you put yourself in arms way ??
He went straight through him you need specsavers
Next you'll bring up the handball incident from last year (yawn ZZzzz)
Anyway hope you had good journey home thanks for making the journey with your massive away support.

We brought 26 I think, would've been more but they were scared off because they thought they'd be kidnapped for their outsider genes.

Nah you guys were safe. Last years squad scared us off with all their fat genes. We've got enough of them already (allegedly)
-
FFS. I'll have a pint of what tigerroar is on.
-
Tigerroar is a bitter man, he was last year after we beat them (twice) ;) :D
Thoroughly deserved the win in the end, though we were second best for much of the first half. Second half we dominated and should of had a couple more goals.
Agree with others sending off was correct, personally thought the pen was similar to Corby's second and for me was a pen although I remember a few on here thinking that one (Corby) wasn't.
Deserved MOTM for Ward although I think Sleath can count himself unlucky as he also had a very good game.
-
We are definitely playing better now and deserved the win. Ward is beginning to take on the Shaun Pearson role, and whilst still learning, is looking a good prospect. Mind you, that was a definite penalty he gave away!!!!
Tigerroar is having a laugh about the sending off - Bazza clearly had the ball in his hands when their no.8 took out Stainsfield - a shameful, cowards challenge, and fully deserving of a red card. He lunged in from behind at about knee height - 3 games doesn't seem enough for what could have been a leg breaker.
We look far more mobile up front with the three we are now playing, and we at least look like we can score in any game now, whereas earlier the season we couldn't hit a barn even if we were stood inside one.
Well done to all for the turnaround.
-
Our number eight was sat on the bench at the time, or do they "all look the same" to you?
Your defender had no intention of touching the ball. put himself in harms way and deserved to feel the force of the tackle.

It wouldn't have broken a leg because there was little or no contact from Wilson, there may have been between the keeper and defender though. The defender had no need to put himself in there.

Tigersoarloser, you must have bloody good eyesight if you can tell whether or not there was any contact! :o
-
Think Tigerroar lives on a diet of hard cheese, tough shit, sour grapes and pints of bitter?
-
See, your player put himself in between the challenge and the ball with no intention of getting there. He had no intention of going for the ball, only obstructing our player and only has himself to blame.

The thuggish reaction of the goalkeeper and the intimidation from the crowd got him sent off. If it was a foul, which I don't even think it was then it was a yellow at the very most.
-
Those photos quite clearly show your player just launching into a studs up tackle from three feet away as our keeper already is already gathering the ball. Hardly a compelling defence.
-
It was a clear foul. It was a definite red. Your photos show Bastock collecting the ball comfortably, with your player launching himself at Stainfield. Where is the doubt?!
-
The fourth photo clearly shows that the defender has run across the challenge to block it and has gotten himself hurt in the process. At no point are "studs up" either.
-
Stainfield is between the attacker and the ball at all times, and therefore is in control. The studs are up in the fourth photo.. thanks for the evidence!
-
Didn't get a good view, but these photos prove that the ref got it right.
Thought Fairclough and Milnes were outstanding yesterday 8)
A few weeks ago we would have struggled against a side like Gloucester, looks like the managers are learning fast. ;)
-

He was a the side of the line of the play, not in between and ran across the challenge and tripped himself over.

:D :D :D :D :D :D
-
I am 2,500 miles away I can clearly see what happened.....
Ball going to keeper, he comes to comfortably collect, meanwhile defender steps across to protect the ball from the oncoming attacker, who is late and never going to get the ball - never closer than 3/4 yards to the ball - takes out the defender, very late, never going to get the ball and gets a red.
If only you ate more carrots :dan you'd be able to see it for what it was. :bunny
-
Those photos do the opposite of what is intended. I originally thought he was unlucky and just over eager.
(http://www.tigerroar.co.uk/spf/scott07.jpg)
With this one being the one most damning. In the players defence, he did pull away from the follow through, but too little too late after lunging from that far away after the ball had gone. It's just a good job Bazzas old limbs managed to jump himself out of the way, it could have been worse, although he did have an age between picking the ball up and the player arriving.
-
I take it your N0 16 does the same when the defender is sheperding the ball out over the goal line, you know Tiger the one where the defender puts himself between the ball and the line to stop the forward getting to the ball. In your knowledgeable opinion he would be able to launch himself at the ball take out the defender and it's ok because the defender wasn't going to play the ball anyway PMSL.
-
Stanfield was clearly sheperding the ball back to bazza as a defender should do, the tackle was just disgusting
Clearly you've never played football tiger
-
Shepherding the ball out of play is the laziest and worse form of defending and only serves to make a defenders overall game worse. Defenders who do it have a habit of falling over like pansies in the wind to win a free kick when they're challenged by an attacker eager to get the ball.
And, that's exactly what's happened here. Your Lurch rolled around on the floor, got our player sent off and then jumped up and ran around like nothing had happened.

The fourth picture shows Scott within a foot of the ball as your keeper gets in in two hands. 3 or 4 yards would make him 9 to 12 feet away. I have therefore discredited your post as nonsense, so stick your carrots up your ass ;)
-
Didn't realise it was still half term.

Picture 4 does indeed clearly show studs up. Picture 6 and 7 show the bottom of the boot (that's the studs tigger) down Stainfields calf. At the game I was 99% certain it was a red and those photos have removed the 1% of doubt.
He's not a troll he's just unhinged...
-
Studs down the calf, rubbish, it's a good job Rosey didn't get on, then we'd have been talking about studs down the calf!
The downside of the Government not funding decent road or rail links to far flung places like Boston and the Fens is that no-one leaves town and everyone goes to home games one week and watches the reserves the next so they don't know how to see a game from an away perspective.
In the first half behind me in the stand was a local who shouted everytime the referee gave us a decision "Let it flow ref" and called him "whistle happy". Oddly he only shouted that when the play was stopped in our favour and never when it was a free kick to Boston.
I'm happy to believe that he typifies the majority of the Boston support and thats why the large contingent behind the goal went absolutely loopy when Scott went for the ball and your defender put himself in the way and ended up getting hurt.
I'm not surprised that no-one will accept that the defender put himself in harms way and engineered the sending off. As our manager said, he'd rather have Scott go for the ball in those situations than be put off by a defender and let the keeper tamely collect the ball.
I'd like to see your defender try that up against a more experienced player and not a 17 year old kid, then if he went down crying he'd stay down.
-
Yeh, good challenge, it's becoming a non contact sport. Unfortunately you can't make those sort of challenges any more ...and it's ruining the game. Nothing better than seeing a keeper flinch! Good facials though Baz!
-

Yeah you're quite correct, 20 odd on Saturday and a similar number at both games against you at YS last season. We didn't take 100 to Chelenham last year to play you (more than the total away following from all 3 games at YS), oh no that was my imagination. :D :D
Meltdown.
-
26 away fans hmmmm! Let's return to the transport debate on the Sunday 1st of April and then see who looks like the fool he clearly is.
-
I can't deny that you have your figures right there but if you put it into perspective with both clubs average attendances then you might be able to understand my point. We're probably looking at up to 1000 Boston fans who only watch home games.
-

Considering 100 went all the way to Cheltenham have a guess at how many go to closer away games. I'll give you a clue, last season it was close on 500 to Alfreton, similar to Gainsborough. At somewhere in between (distance-wise), say Hyde we took 200-250. Still reckon most of our fans onyl watch home games.
Enjoy the meltdown :D

Yet your a city and you struggle to get over 400, we take good crowds away, sometimes outnumbering home fans.
Going back to the sending off incident, he didn't get anywhere near the ball as that was in bastocks hand. If he was lunging for the ball, fair enough but he was nowhere near and caught the defender full on.
What about your team constantly going to the referee and linesman saying they got stuff wrong and having a moan, infact your players got booked for that too
-
It's population of the two towns you should be comparing Gloucester 126,000, Boston 35,000 it's not our fault that 125,700 sit on their backsides sooner than watch you lot. Mind you I woudln't turn up either if I had to listen to your drivel every other week.
-
He was less than a foot away from the ball when it became "dead" and the defender went over Scott's legs, he didn't catch him full on at all. Why can no-one seem to understand that the defender only has himself to blame?
-
i think you've got yourself to blame that people think your a joke. End of story we won 2-0 and it would have still been 2-0 if he had stayed on the field as you hardly troubled bastock.
Any comment on your poor attendances concidering you are indeed a city?
-
I gather that you are Gloucesters' photographer.
Can't you understand your own photographs?
Are you blind as well as stupid?
I have been watching your posts under this thread and was under the impression you were a mere child, although by the quality of your arguments, you are obviously a sandwich short of a picnic.
I also read your post on the Blue Square North site on Saturday night which was downright vile with disgusting language. I hope they ban you!!!!!!!
Why, in a city of 126.000 people, did the club have to pick you as their official photographer?
Although, looking at your average attendance figures, I suppose most of the sane population find something better to do with their time, particularly if they have to rub shoulders with you.

Yep, blame everyone else, not me, I go every week. Short of press ganging people into coming what can I do? I appreciate winning games gets people interested but when we get served up with such piss poor referees putting on a winning run isn't easy.
-
Waaaaaa! Why doesn't your carer accompany you on the touchline?
-
Isn't photo 3 rather telling????
The ball is inches away from Bazza, maybe even his fingertips are touching the ball.
Explain the challenge in a way that makes sense. When your striker decides to launch himself - what was he hoping to make contact with???
It was a reckless and dangerous challenge and fully deserved a red card. Only a buffoon would say otherwise, and if you watch as much football as you surely do Tigger, then am I amazed you can't see that.
Must have a rose tinted filter on that lens of yours!!!!!
-
Are you saying he has no right to go for the ball because the keeper almost has it? He didn't actually with the ball, or keeper did he? He didn't even make contact with the defender, the defender, who had no desire to touch the ball and therefore had no real business being there went in too, avoided the onrushing goalkeeper and hurt himself going over Scott's leg.
I'm sure there are people here who think that Scott had no intention of getting the ball and wiped out the defender out of malice. And I get accused of being rose tinted.
-
You're not being accused of being biased, just deluded...
-
I Cant remember the last time a Match thread nearly got to page 6
-
More postings on this thread than Gloucester get on their forum in a month.
Tigar also appears on the BSN forum on a regular basis if anyone wishes to continue taking the p*ss out of him in future along with fans from other BSN teams.
-
Sending off irrelevant, Boston deserved to win end of story. Bore off. C U in a few weeks.
-
Boston got the goals and the points fair enough but to be robbed of having a chance down to two appalling decisions isn't fair at all.
-
you didnt score with 11 men and didnt really look like doing so its pointless arguing. try looking on YOUR site and even the manager says we outplayed you
-
We might've scored had he not bottled the penalty decision.
-
That would have made it 2-1, which is still 3 points to us!
-
With 15 minutes to go.......
-
With 15 minutes to go.......
TNF if you had it wouldn't have made the slightest difference your team is so waist full with the ball when crossing,corners and cross feild passing. Im Not sure what the corner count was in the game but only twice did i see the ball land anywhere close to where it could have Made any problems,
-
With 15 minutes to go.......
You hadn't scored in 75 minutes, so what makes you think you would have in 15?
-
It only takes a second to score a goal.
-
Me thinks this supreme optimist needs to go to Specsavers (after his visit to the funny farm).
-
I have just taken awhile to read some of Tigga's rants on the Blue Square Forum and my first conclusion is that nobody loves him.
My second conclusion is that, if Nathan hadn't got in the way and their man had caught Bazza, he would have needed a stretcher to take him off, he wouldn't have been fit to walk after his red card.
How can Tigga call Bazza fat is beyond me. Baz is all muscle and one of the fittest guys in our team.
-
When the ball is inches from the keepers gloves, and the striker is 5-6 feet away, what do you think the striker is trying make contact with when he launches himself towards the keeper?? The ball?? Don't make me laugh!!!
There is no doubt that the keeper will get to the ball before the striker in this case (because that is what happened). The fact that Bazza collected the ball and still got out of the way in time confirms that the striker stood no chance at all of winning the ball, yet still he made a reckless and dangerous challenge, having no regard for the consequences of him doing so. In so doing he made contact with an opponent. It was a foul. It was "a tackle" (loosely defined) from behind. It was a red card. End of.
We have seen plenty of sending off's in the Premier League this season where the ball has been won in a tackle, but it is the follow through that strikes the opponent and causes a foul to be committed. This present case is much worse. There was zero chance of winning the ball. We can say that because he didn't get anywhere near it. At all times the defender is between your striker and the ball. Your striker cannot get to the ball without fouling the defender.
Your defence of your striker is as brainless as the challenge that your striker made.
-
I go on the BSN forum on a regular basis and see tigga getting the micky taken on almost a daily basis .
Having noted this and the time he has spent on our forum the last few days I would like tigga to answer the following question
When do you find time to do your homework tigga?
-
It only takes a second to score a goal.
And you didn't score at all...
-

Why do folk constantly exaggerate to try to make a point? The picture where the ball is an inch or two from Bastock's gloves, Scott is no more than three feet away. The photo is proof of this so if you have a point to make, stick to the facts.
-
FACT 1: The game finished 2-0 to BUFC.
FACT 2: Your player got sent off.
Just sticking to the facts!
-
You missed the fact about the most blatant penalty ever being given as a corner.
-
With the exception of only 1 Boston fan we have all agreed that it did appear to be a penalty but the FACT is: the referee didn't and awarded a corner.
-
You missed the fact about the most blatant penalty ever being given as a corner.
Is that a fact? Or a general consensus?
-
I couldn't get to the game on saturday, I was going to go with my boy but my boy dislocated his knee about an hour before kick off so I missed the game, ambulance was required and xrays etc, etc!!!! I can't comment on whether it was a penalty for obvious reasons but what I can say is we have had many valid penalty decisions turned down this season and at times it is so frustrating but the refs will never change their minds or ever be that good (and thats at any level ie Howard Webb and Stuart Attwell in the prem) and that is a FACT.
Another fact is you will make yourself ill if you can't let it go!! We have had many refs down here over the years that have been piss poor, two that spring to mind are Karl Boyeson when we played Cambridge United and lost 3-1 in Division 3 (now called League 2) his performance from start to finish is the worst reffing i've ever witnessed and the other for just one incident in a game which was truely shocking but I can't remember his name but he is known now as drop ball and it was v Southport in BSBN four years ago in a 1-1 or possibly a 2-1 defeat im not sure on the score now. Them tow refs stick in the memory but you have to let it go!
-

It certainly wasn't the most blatant penalty ever. That accolade goes to Rory Coleman and his 'headed clearance off the line' from last season. Against Gloucester.

I can't comment on whether it was a penalty for obvious reasons but what I can say is we have had many valid penalty decisions turned down this season and at times it is so frustrating but the refs will never change their minds or ever be that good (and thats at any level ie Howard Webb and Stuart Attwell in the prem) and that is a FACT.
Of course, these decisions level themselves out over the season we're often told. A theory that we could take comfort from had it not been for the fact that we've yet to be awarded a penalty this season.

Does seem odd Tigar that you never get the penalty dicisions , as porl99 says last season every one at YS saw our defender blatantly handle on the line with no penalty given ,add to that the fact you have recieved non this season does seem something is amiss.
If it is any help Tigar my theory is
The refs go on BSN forum and club forums and like many of us enjoy seeing posters take the p"ss out of you !

You know, you might not be that far from the truth.
There can be very few other reasons why he gave a corner instead of a penalty kick for something so blatant.

I believe we were the last team to score a penalty in the division last season (Who can find the penalty update thread?), and we managed to do OK. You shouldn't have to rely on penalties to score goals!

We don't. Had Morf not been fouled then he'd have been in an excellent position to create a goalscoring opportunity.

Sorry it's taken nie on a week to get back to this, I've finally emptied my camera and can show it from another angle that clearly shows the defender was no where near him when he fell....

If you've got no kind words to say, you should say nothing more at all.
