I said he could have scored. How come you are now saying he fell over, but don't even remember it?
Others are using the word 'chance,' but I would say it probably was. Could easily have scored there and when the ball came over I thought he WAS going to score.
I don't believe he 'fell over' I...
Someone must have seen it. Otherwise I am going insane.
I'm not convinced it was Haynes put the ball over, but someone did, from the left into the 6 yard box.
I do think we have lost too many matches, but it is encouraging that it took a long range effort to defeat us today. Until then Burge had hardly had a save to make.
Clive Eakin and Barry Quinn said the same thing in the commentary.
Watch the match highlights. Time and time again it was long through balls to the strikers and the keeper it was pretty much long punts from him too.
Just checked and what I said was that for the most part Mansfield seemed to be only using long punts upfield and that was entirely true. Out of every ten balls up field I would bet you that eight of those were directly up to their forwards.
They were looking so dangerous WHEN they went out...
I think you will find that entirely untrue.
Mansfield had great joy WHEN they went wide, but they didn't utilize that enough and they did keep insisting on lumping the ball long to the front two. I never, ever said they were ONLY long ball merchants. They kept choosing that route though time...
