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

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.

[Maxross]

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.

[The President]

It was stone wall!! But if it had been awarded would they have scored?
Awful challenge on Stainfield, red card justified.

[tigerroar]

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.

[townender3385]

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
