A truly awful game, with one of the worst refs I’ve ever seen.. 17:24 - Sep 3 with 5942 viewsunstableblue

… we just didn’t fire up in the first half… Morsy was quiet and we were trying to play the ball to Jackson’s feet to hold up the ball?! WTF

JJ was also struggling.

Thank goodness MOTM Burgess and an imperious Walton were never going to let them in… indeed I’m not sure they were ever going to really threaten

Then second half… which started with some truly woeful refereeing (which actually fired up our fans - FINALLY!)… Morsy went up a gear, Harness continued to be brilliant and Ladapo and Chaplin changed the game…

Lacklustre performance first half

But who cares!!???? We won at Accy! WE WON AT ACCY!!

Different team now… we’d have lost or drawn that last year

Quality of the bench

But one final point - McKenna won’t stick around if we’re playing in those terrible grounds, with lottery refs, and route one teams… but i feel he wants to be the one to get us out of this low level… a level we should be at… but we have to FIGHT to get out of it

Thank God the last 20mins saw that FIGHT

He was completely man marked for the first 20-30mins so was ineffectual

They man marked us across the pitch, which left us a spare centre back only

To say Morsy was excellent first half is wrong, BUT I agree he did become more influential towards the end
And really got stuck in second half… with some great input

Evans did well today and lost his press first half

‘Truly awful game….’

I didn’t see it - was listening to Brenner. I presume you did see it? What I heard was a game in which we had to work hard in and battle to get a foothold in it. In my opinion that doesn’t make it awful.

What I heard KM say was that in the first half AS didn’t play the way he expected them to - so the tactics and set up we used weren’t as effective as he hoped. That doesn’t make it awful, it just makes it a struggle. Morsey was manmarked - then credit to him and the others that they overcame that and went on to win.

Let’s just be fair and say that Ascci came into the spaghetti with a game plan, and for a while it worked. Credit to them. That doesn’t make us bad or awful. But it does mean we have to give credit to the manager and the players for adapting and eventually imposing themselves on the game and coming out as winners. For the last few seasons that would not have happened.


We pasta-d it quite well.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

After the first hour or so I would have settled for a draw.

Those three points will prove invaluable come the end of the season.

Really good away win that.

I was there live, and I was close to 3 decisions, where he had clear sights of incidents that were so black and white to us.. and yet he gave the other way

He did have a spell of giving decisions to us, again inexplicably

It doesn’t get any better in the championship, the guy from last week is a championship standard ref and he made this one look like Howard Webb.

Phew. Everything good then. The day you are happy Unstableblue is the day we've become complacent.

We beat them. Our manager's plan worked. The fans who travelled are justly rewarded.

Accrington would be a different force if they had a manager with modern ideas.

Brilliant away win

As stated we just wouldn’t have won that last season.

Even after the first hour when we just hadn’t fully got going, I wouldn’t have taken a draw as we were a better quality set of players

Then we kicked into gear and it was great

But it was pretty awful for much of the first half as was the ref

I felt we controlled the game as best as you could have at a place like Accrington, think we had over 60% possession, whilst ensuring we matched them off the ball.

I know many don't rate jackson, and yes he missed a chance, but he was excellent uptop and his press disrupted their backline on many occasions and gradually the pockets of space opened up.


I will be interested to see how often Jackson starts in this position again.

It'll depend if KM feels its suitable for him to and if he wants something different to that of ladapo and others.
