Tuesday 2nd February

To be honest we would have been without Lee,Sarcevic and Maddison tonight.......we will be stronger when the game is rearranged

Some of the Bolton fanbase have been embarrassing, we didn’t want it off so early last week but that’s what the referee decided, and this time was just nature winning.

Had covers on, snowed quite a bit this morning then absolutely poured it down later, nothing anybody can do about it.

It’s crap for Mansfield, that 5 winning streak seems lost now despite the fact it’s not.

 

[Casey]

Not sure about the pen. Thompson should be off for two yellows (pull back a player running away from you is yellow, and the yellow for bringing down Nadesan after being turned). It shouldn't have been a red but they always are nowadays (Two footed jump in after losing control if the ball). Both hands on our defenders back. Too blatant not to be given as a foul.

Ref too picky for me.

Our midfield is being completely overrun, even though you are down to ten. If Orient don't panic and we don't change Orient will win.

And at halftime it's Crawley and the United association of referees 0-0 Leyton Orient.

Despite Crawley's 12th man trying his hardest to skew the result by awarding penalties for casting a shadow, disallowing goals for blinking too many times in the box, and sending Orient players off for perfectly acceptable (if meaty) challenges, it remains even stevens at the half.

Full time prediction: match abandoned once Orient are reduced to only 5 players for no apparent reason. When queried in his post match interview the ref simply claims he 'wasnt feeling it', is spotted after the game wandering in the direction of Gatwick airport in full Crawley Town kit.

Forest Green don't half flop over whenever anyone comes near them. That wasn't the case for either of the fouls leading to goals, but when they want to break play up they just fall over and get a free kick for it

Disappointed with the result and performance but we expected this against Exeter after a month off and grabbed the win on that occasion, and for all FGR's better play it was pretty even on chances. We hit the post and had one saved point blank right at the end. There's been games this season we've won purely through volume of chances and by limiting the opposition and on another day this could have been one but deadballs and not being clinical enough means this isn't one of them.

 

[Bottega Don]

That Orient red card is clear as day, it's a textbook red card tackle

 

[E10rifle]

Clear red. Probably a push for our disallowed goal, though the Crawley player went down like he’d been sniped. Penalty was a f**king joke, though.

 

[SVH]

For me Forest Green were much the better side and deserved the three points over the 90 mins.

The lad up top caused the best defender in Europe all sorts of problems and on another day it could have ended 4-3. Good entertaining second half.

 

[hellogregory]

Thought we were poor and got what we deserved there. Our use of the ball was atrocious and off the ball wasn’t much better.

I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt as it’s 2 games in 4 days after so long without a match. Agreed that we looked more lively once we made the subs, but it was an overall shite performance, let’s not dress it up as anything else.

 

[hellogregory]

Oh and special mention to Rhys Bennett. I lorded him as the best central defender in league 2 because in December form he was. Diabolical tonight, a pathetically inept performance. Unfit, slow, couldn’t jump. The opposite of what he’d been pre CUFC pandemic. Hopefully just rustiness but any more like that and he should be worried about his place.

Good job nobody said somebody did mention it then.

For a town thats known for holding a three day racing festival, but 99.9% of people could not name either a footballer or any one of relevance from the place............

Bet theres plenty working in GCHQ read your messages and have you on the watchlist for knobheads.

 

[chipmunx]

Well done Exeter

 

[BogDaddyO]

Perennial con man and cheat Kevin Johnson finally gives a yellow card to a Crawley player.
Only took 95 minutes.

 

[BogDaddyO]

0-0 FT with 10 men for 60 minutes.
With 11 men we win that.
Ref ruined that game 100%, what the fuck is the Crawley manager complaining at full time for, he got everything on a platter tonight.

Zero shots on target for Crawley.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Poor game but fortunately it was against Stevenage. Can we play them every week?

 

[SVH]

Yems is an absolute wanker. The new Steve Evans.

 

[Casey]

Come on Alain. Tell me how good our midfield is again!

That was about as dire attemp to break down 10 men as you will ever see. Our midfield did not pass the ball forward with any conviction or urgency at all. If Powell and Wright are the answer the question must be how shit a midfield can a team put out in this league? Our only attempts on goal in the second half came when we put McNerney into the box and hit diagonal balls at him.

Orient decided to play for the draw in the second half. If they had decided to keep trying to come forward occasionally they would have won. In fact, even not trying to attack it was Crawleys keeper who made the saves! Did Orient keeper make any?

Yems has lost the plot since the Leeds game. He obviously thinks he is better than what he is. How he can think a powder puff midfield like that can get anywhere in this league beggars belief.

Going for a beer and to find a cat to kickl

I'm mad at him for the performance tonight. Why are you upset with him?

[The Terminator]

Deserved draw for us in the circumstances, we edged the game on chances for sure - needed some sort of a performance after a dreadful display at Bolton on Saturday. Good save from Morris to deny Nick Freeman.

Red card nailed on for me - inexperience from Kyprianou, he's lost the ball and will learn not to dive in so rashly, penalty was soft but some refs will give them if they see any sort of a nudge no matter how hard it is.

Good displays from 3 of the new signings in Thompson, Abrahams and especially Freeman.

Crawley were really poor I thought, not the sort of performance against ten you'd want to see. Vigouroux didn't have much to do save wise.

First draw for us in just over 3 months, second draw we've had to battle with playing the majority of the game with ten men.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Great, so McArdle comes in, put in Man of the Match performance, now he is injured and it doesnt look good.

 

[Back in the DHSS]

Bet theres plenty working in GCHQ read your messages and have you on the watchlist for knobheads.

 

[Casey]

BigDaddyO will be pleased to know John Yems agrees with his assessment of the ref.

He will probably get a pitchside ban for what he said in the interview. I have no idea why he needs to comment. The same with players mouthing off to officials. The only point is to get a game off and a lighter wage packet.

For a town thats known for holding a three day racing festival, but 99.9% of people could not name either a footballer or any one of relevance from the place............

The only player to score a winning penalty for England in a World Cup Finals shootout was born in Cheltenham thank you, one Eric Dier. Mike Summerbee (he of Man City and England) was also raised in Cheltenham. Steve Cotterill was born and raised there and took his hometown club from a part-time team in the Southern League to the 3rd tier of the English football in 6 years.

1966 hat-trick hero Geoff Hurst has resided in Cheltenham for donkeys now as well

That's not to mention Gustav Holst (he's cultured, look him up on the internet), Richard O'Brien (he who did the Crystal Maze and the Rocky Horror Picture Show) and founder member of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones (who is buried in Cheltenham cemetery).

I could go on, but I think the point's been made.

 

[Casey]

Crawley have taken down the video where John Yems criticised the referee.

I wonder why?

A gash in the groin area apparently! Hope he’s back soon.

Good win and 3 points was the most important thing tonight. Could be a turning point for us.

 

[Reremnart]

They have been doing that for years . To be fair the current bunch are nowhere near as bad as they were in the non-league where their play acting was off the charts. It all comes from that odious twat of a manager. Not only is he the Worlds worst loser he is also the High Priest of the Dark Arts.

 

[Carver]

John Melish is fucking shit!

 

[Super_horns]

Strong words from the Crawley manager or a bit of sour grapes ?
