Accrington Stanley Vs Exeter City L1 Match Day Thread

[Cowshed Grecian]

To be fair I don’t think we can moan about the first 6 games…hope we pick up some home form and start scoring some goals and we will be fine.

I don't want to worry you but MK have just won 4-0 away from home.

Thats fine, they will be complacent

Pleased with that not an easy place to pickup points

SkyBet reckons we didnt have a single shot on target? that right?

EDIT: nevermind, just seen previous comments that also say 0 shots on target today....

Sam Nombe had a header cleared off the line in the first half. I'd also like to see the incident right at the end of the normal time when Sam appeared to be dragged down in the box. The commentators didn't seem to think it was a penalty but it looked it should have been to me.

Defo Pen IMHO but referee gave every challenge against Sam Nombe !

That's clearly a concern but sometimes you have to give credit to the opposition for defending well. In the second half of last season this was the sort of game we would have won with a scrappy goal but Accrington weren't going to let that happen.

We’re not doing too bad , currently highest placed of the four sides promoted up last season and with the best, ( and the only positive) GD.

Accrington Comm team very biased but their youth development coach did admit that they aspire to model their academy on ours !

And the two league games he reffed against us season he gave a penalty to the opposition, one of which was very questionable. At least he didn't send one of our players off this time.

We’ve W2 D2 L2 from our first 6 league games and scored F9 A5.
That’s perfectly acceptable so far in my book.
Plus 2 of our 3 home matches have been resounding victories, so apart from the Cheltenham blip, where we certainly weren’t outplayed, our early home form has been good.
If you throw in cup games (and forget about penalties) we’ve scored F7 A0 in 2 away ties.
The only proviso I’d say is that our early season fixtures don’t look like our hardest ones this season, on paper anyway.
