Odd change Felix off for Thomas.

Why Green has to tinker with a winning side, to bring on lesser players I'll never know, unless the player is injured. Felix was giving them a lot to contend with which kept them from attacking in force.Thomas is not in the same league as Felix in skill or pace. Even the commentators on Radio Lincs couldn't understand the change. Afraid Green cost us all three points tonight with his decision. Marshall for Marrs I could understand. Oh well soon be bedtime.

???????
It was the same starting 11
If Green did cost us all three points tonight then surely he won us the three against Fylde and Chorley?
Ah hindsight, it's a wonderful thing.

Fair result.
Boston started well and were gifted first goal, when Trinity stopped , waiting for the whistle. Garner unchallenged steered the ball in.
From then Boston were quicker, and closed down really well, hitting Trinity on the break but not finding the second goal. Trinity lost their best player (Russell) to injury and although they had a chance to equalise, forcing a great save were relieved to see half time only one down.

Second half was more even until Boston replaced Felix, resulting in Trinity getting on top. Stamp dominating Piergianni, makIng Blues look more likely to score next. After a spell of pressure Picton equalised and Toner almost gave the blues the lead.
Frantic finish, but no more goals

FFS. Well done DG, you almost managed it, again. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is becoming your trademark and the real problem is you just don't learn from your mistakes. We were 1-0 up, not really in control of the game but certainly ahead on points and what do you do, you take off the only attacking player that was causing concern to Gainsborough and put on Thomas who was just not up to the task. He must be cheap because his ability can't be keeping him in the team. And don't say he was tired after Saturday because if that's any argument then you should have given the whole team the evening off because on Saturday they all worked their socks off just like Felix did. Felix came off and after that we were under the cosh, again. You have done it before, we back off in the last  20/25 minutes and give the other team the opportunity to come back and beat us. There were other supporters around me who just couldn't understand those changes you made.
You nearly lost us the game with those changes but I suspect it will be the players fault, as usual. There is one thing you did well last night and that was to avoid the after match interview. At least howdydododosham made the interview before the radio stopped broadcasting. Just one last whinge about that tall lanky pensioner Stumpy, what a big girls blouse, what a tall lanky pensioner cheat. Went down holding his head like he had been hit with a pick axe handle and yet there was no contact whatsoever. Pathetic. Should have come away with a win tonight but I suppose 1 point is better than 0 points.
Other than that the lads tried there best, worked their socks off but were let down by the manager.

We should have put the game to bed in the first half but I have to say the lads gave their all with Dixon being outstanding. I also question the substitutions both Felix and Marrs had the right hand side stitched up yet both were replaced at the same time. It has to be said that Thomas does not look good indeed every time the ball was passed to him he looked as though he was going to have a nervous breakdown, has no pace and can't get rid of the ball quick enough, usually to an opposition player,sorry but it needs saying. Thought Pidge showed why he is the best center half in this league, what a shift he put in. Having said all that I will also say that recent performances including tonight have been play off material.

NO match winners on the bench and none good enough to protect a lead either ,we still got a point well done.

Sorry Miele but you must be wrong. According to DG we have a much stronger side than last season.
Must echo the comments of others on here about the rest of the players, they worked hard and deserve great credit but still think they were let down badly by the substitution.

SO you agree we need a complete new bench, (plastic or wood).

Post by: Lord Cutler Knobhead on November 19, 2014, 08:00:31 AM
Short memories, many said Felix wasn't upto this league and offered nothing.  Given a run in the team he looks great.  Maybe Thomas might be the same given time.  You have to put him in, give him and go and look at him.

Our strength in depth is injured. Mcghee offers loads and is being missed, as is the second striker for Southwell.  Jones desperately needs a goal to settle as for all his huffing and puffing things don't look right yet.

The game changed when the one remaining decent player from the Swann money pots era came on.  What are they going to do when he retires as upto the point he came on they were dross?

Title: Re: Gainsborough tonight
Post by: Carl Newell on November 19, 2014, 09:45:20 AM
Thought we were outstanding first half. Back four were solid, and our midfield and forwards were bossing the game. Dixon, Tempest and Felix were beating opponents at ease giving the game a cup tie feel against a side from several leagues below. Could and should have scored a second before the break with Dixon, Steer and Southwell among others having near misses although Trinity did force a decent save from the impressive Joel Dixon on the stoke of half time. Stamp came on and they resorted to hoof ball (providing an interesting dual with Pidge) as they were struggling to out play us at football. Second half was much of the same until the hour mark (agreed about the subs it did appear to change the game.) Gainsborough then had time on the ball and created two or three chances with Beesley, Picton and Davies having an impacted on the game. Boston finished on top again with a couple of chances to win it right at the end. Only 600 attendance with around 200 from Boston.

As for Thomas hopefully he will come good, lacks pace and is probably suited playing through the middle off either Southwell or Jones but seems to have something about him and has scored goals elsewhere.


Gainsborough were very tinpot. Stewards offering Boston fans "outside" after they scored. Stamp who produced a cynical off the the ball stamp on Steer; yet somehow this was deemed a yellow card not a straight red? Then rolling round like a girl twice after no contact. And finally I am still trying to find the six fingers on each hand Housham was telling us about as he walked down the tunnel..
Poor leadership letting down fans like Steelihat who represent the club well.
Title: Re: Gainsborough tonight
Post by: Odin on November 19, 2014, 11:20:19 AM
That late stamp on Steer by the 'big girls blouse Stamp' should have been a red card. Only the Lino saw it, not the ref, so the ref was guided by the lino who didn't have the bottle to recommend a red card. Heard the stewards talking about the attendance from Boston and one said that according to the 'takings' there was about 280 from Boston.
As for Stamp, what a plonker. The first time he rolled around on the floor holding his head was clearly play acting cos nothing touched his head in that tackle, it was right in front of me and there was NO contact. The 2nd time he rolled around, I thought he rolled around holding his head because someone just told him his attendance allowance had just been stopped and his carer went home because she wasn't getting paid. Hope he doesn't sign for us when his career goes downhill, we don't need his sort.

Interesting to get a different perspective on Piergianni v Stamp. From where I was stood (half way line) the only time Piergianni won a duel was when he fouled Stamp. The elbow in the head in centre circle should have been a red card - 10 yards from ref, who gave a free kick, and a quick word with Boston defender.
Subs changed the game, thought Greene took off your best two players, but it appeared that Boston who had worked really hard were running out of steam towards the end

Greene replaced both players due to injury. Your left back must of been relieved when Felix was replaced as he had run him ragged all night long. I think it was a fair tussle between Pidge and Stamp but Stamp should of been sent off without doubt for a terrible challenge.

It was my mate who your steward threatened with physical violence, I was stood right next to him. The line "do you wanna go outside was used". I will testify this to the relevant authorities. He also tried to provoke boston fans when you scored but the boston fans behaved in an exemplary manor and didn't rise to the bait. Such tinpottery stuff when you have actual fans it would seem acting as "stewards". The stewards from Lincoln were sound however.

There was a subtle hint  :o

With the benefit of 24 hours, all that remains in the thoughts is how tepid the whole game and atmosphere was.  It's just not the derby game some would try to make us believe.  There was more intensity at Tamworth. That had more of a derby feel than last night.

Think that was first incident on wing, with Davis.
Think intent is the point. If he raised his elbow ( which you saw ) whether contact or not,  is still an offence
 Second incident in centre circle on Stamp, with definite contact

Seems to be a serial offender

Someone alluded to it earlier that injuries lay behind the substitutions. Haven't heard anything concrete one way or the other but regardless if that you can't argue that DG does seem 'keen' to try and protect a lead with 15/25 mins to go even in a lot of games where we are well on top and it is annoying as in most cases and if nothing else in so many games it certainly hands the initiative to our opponents. The old ticker could certainly do without all that if you don't mind.

Both injured according to den interview on official site.  It certainly changed the game when we lost Felix. He has looked a much better player last few games by using his pace to go past players rather than come inside.

Someone alluded to it earlier that injuries lay behind the substitutions. Haven't heard anything concrete one way or the other but regardless if that you can't argue that DG does seem 'keen' to try and protect a lead with 15/25 mins to go even in a lot of games where we are well on top and it is annoying as in most cases and if nothing else in so many games it certainly hands the initiative to our opponents. The old ticker could certainly do without all that if you don't mind.

The real test is how many times has this plan failed us ?  I can,t recall it doing so , can anyone correct me ?

Now if Greene did not revert to this defencive plan at the closing part of a game which we are winning and we conceded goals I suspect he would come in for flack on here .
Who would be a football manager ?

I can,t comment as I did,nt go , but I did listen to it on BBC Lincs .   The commentory team appeared to be in full agreement that Stamp should have been red carded ,  was Thommo and co right steeli ?

Think Stamp couldn't pull out of challenge after whistle had gone, ref looking other way. Thought clumsy rather than malicious, and probably yellow was correct.

Also ref was inconsistent with cards- yellows for very little for both Binns and Marrs, but Stamp and Piergianni could easily have seen red
(Who'd be a ref?)

You seem a fairly sensible guy Stelihat .....why don't you come on a regular basis and support Boston?

IMHO Yellow not red, so no Thommo and co were not right

Fair result.
Boston started well and were gifted first goal, when Trinity stopped , waiting for the whistle. Garner unchallenged steered the ball in.

School kids are coached to keep playing until the whistle. I suppose Trinity had an excuse for stopping - they're not used to wingers staying on their feet.

The Marrs one was particularly laughable as I don't think he'd done much wrong all night and softly clipped the lad.  Then in the next passage of play two others did the exact same thing and got nothing.

But that has always been the case in football. The so called 'hard men' get away with three of four decent clouts before getting booked where a midfielder or striker gets a card for his first.

Evidence, or hearsay about the stewards? I'm sure the club will be interested


It was my mate who your steward threatened with physical violence, I was stood right next to him. The line "do you wanna go outside was used". I will testify this to the relevant authorities. He also tried to provoke boston fans when you scored but the boston fans behaved in an exemplary manor and didn't rise to the bait. Such tinpottery stuff when you have actual fans it would seem acting as "stewards". The stewards from Lincoln were sound however.

I shall pass on your concerns to the relevant people.

(How do you know which stewards were from Lincoln, and which from Gainsborough?)

What response have you had from the "relevant people "  ?
