I recognise the pretty boy.

How are Stevenage doing?

9th at the moment but with games in hand, started the season awfully and didnt win until september but ever since then we have been mainly winning and we are now into the final of the FA Trophy and still chasing a play-off place but in recent weeks we just seem a bit off our best and lost the last couple of games, midfield is missing a couple key players at the moment.Still 0-0 tonight though.

Do you think you'll go up next season?

I've not given up hope on this season quite yet but we would proably be stronger next season.

1-0 up Paul Hakim with his first goal for the club :cheer2:

Bloody hell about 7 mins of injury time the ref added on but it's all over now.1-0 win at 3rd placed York, get in there :cheer2:.Upto 7th in the table now with 2 games in hand.

Aldershot 1-0 Weymouth

First win in 5 games, played alot better then we have done in previous matches goal game in the second half from Rhys Day. Nice way to send the manager off with a decent performance.

Yay well done Dan and Jay ^_^
Oh i know about injury time Dan they put 5 mins on at accy on saturday and announcer said "The referee has indicitated 5 minutes of stoppage time and what is that for I have no idea":angel:

Lmao, stupid refs always do it when you're winning but not losing.

I know *shakes head* so annoying and its worse when your down to 10 men too

Well done all you guys.:cheer2::cheer2::cheer2:

Andorra 0-3 England

Poor performance first half only created 2 or 3 chances, second half alot better moved the ball alot quicker and created alot more chances, still not a decent performance but we got the 3 points and hopefully can move on and get some more points, the 2 games against Russia and the game against Croatia are so crucial for our quailfication.

Im glad we won in the end but we cant continue playing the way we do, im sure everyone would agree that really we should be hitting teams like Andorra for 5 or 6.

I see Gerrard scores 2 without having Lampard getting in his way :whistle:.Awful first half and I felt sorry for the fans having to endure that and no suprises they voiced their frustration.2nd half was better but still not great.

Next game I'd go with:

Robinson
G.Neville Ferdinand Terry A.Cole
Lennon Gerrard Hargreaves J.Cole
Defoe Nugent.

Great result for Northern Ireland against Sweden.

How can Macca justify dropping Lampard. First Beckham now Lampard. How can a top manager not get the best out of these players.

Lampards not had a good game in a while for England and he was injured anyway.

I understand what you're saying, my question was somewhat rhetorical. The point is, I personally think that the best managers know - in order to consistently win - they'll need all their quality players. MacClaren, when he was appointed, immediately dropped one of the best footballers this country has produced in 20 years and is on the verge of dropping another. At the time when he dropped Beckham I thought his only saving grace was that England were in an easy group. Now, I'm not so sure.

I don't get all this garbage about wanting to go in a different direction. We're not making a sitcom here, we're trying to qualify for a major tournament. Lennon and Downing are not ready and MacClaren should not be experimenting in tournament qualifiers.

I never saw the point in totally dropping Beckham either to be honest, it's not like he was getting to an age where he was not going to be around for Euro's which I could have at least understood as it would be building a team for then but he's still only about 31 and as he's shown at Real Madrid this season he can still produce at the top level.

Downing always seems to look so nervy for England, like he's never willing to take the full back on, he's a hard working player but not really upto it at the moment.I reckon Lennon is good enough though,he does need to work on the consistency of his crosses though, being played on the left wing against Israel was not exactly the wisest move.

what about the black cats ?

Yeh they are on a good run, fancy them for automatic promotion along with Derby.

:thumbs: keanoooooooooooooo has done wonders for us

I agree with just about everything you say her. You're right, Lennon is good enough. He gets the penetration and needs to work on his crosses. Downing will be a good player too.

The thing that frustrates me about MacClaren is the he lackt the intelligence and imagination to utilise his best players. So we have the situtation where Steve Gerrard is playing better but the team is still no good enough.

we need to win today come on the lads

Aldershot 2-0 St Albans

Totally outplayed them today i think in the whole match they said 5 shots 3 of which were off target our defence looked strong, goals came from Darren Barnard and John Grant, we are unbeaten in 3 :cheer2:

Very poor performance from Stevenage today compounded by an incompetent ref and linesman.A 3-0 loss to a side like Crawley is bad at this stage of the season and I can see changes for tuesdays game at home to Kidderminster.

we won 1-0 Keanooooooooooooo :hello::hello::hello:

the Makem revolution begins:wavey:

The Red and white army is marching to the top

Aldershot 3-2 Exeter

Fantastic win for us, didn't get off to the best start going 1-0 down very early on but we fought back to 1-1 goal coming from Rhys Day, second half was pretty much end to end but managed to get 2 quick goals both coming from Jonny Dixon they got 1 back near the end to set up a tense finish but we hung on. Next up its Dagenham who are top of the leauge so hopefully we can grab something there, unbeaten in 4 :cheer2:

yayyyyyyyy you beat exeter Jay *dances*

Good result Jay, was always going to be a close game but you came off as winners and got a big 3 points, also a good victory for Gravesend to keep their play-off hopes alive - big well done to Liverpool as well.

Was a very tough game even when they went down to 10 men they kept coming at us, Gravesend are on a good run at the moment.

Roma 2-1 Man Utd

Pretty much even up untill the 33rd minute when Scholes got 2 yellow cards and was sent off which was deserved 2 clumsey tackles, Roma took the lead just before halftime but there was 2 balls on the pitch at the time. Second half was all Roma then a moment of genius from Ronaldo and Rooney got us back to 1-1 then Roma scored again, decent result for Utd considering they played an hour with 10 men.

Well the away goal could prove crucial, the sending off of Scholes was always going to restrict United what with Roma being such a class act in midfield, can see United still getting through.

Forgot to write this up last night.

Dagenham 2-1 Aldershot

Dagenham are now promoted, but we made it tough for them first 15 minutes they dominated and deservedly went in front, then from then till halftime it was all Aldershot we were unlucky not to be level or infront at halftime. Second half once again was mostly all Aldershot and they got a penalty which wasn't IMO stupid refereeing decision and they scored, Jonny Dixon pulled a goal back with 25 minutes to go, Dagenham were lucky to become champions yesterday we deserved something from the game.

Much better from us yesterday,just got the ball down and played like we know we can.Totally dominated the first half and finally got the breakthrough after Nurse turned the defender and poked it in but then Morecambe scored a goal against the run of play at the end of the first half.Morecambe came out the brighter side hitting the bar straight away but we went up the other end and Morison ended a good move to end his barren spell and soon after Hakim turned in Nurse's Spudd on to make it 3-1.Then came the baffling decision with Fuller heading onto the bar and the ball bounces down and away and then the linesman claim it went over the line despite being about 20 yards away and no Morecambe player even appealing, they then got an equaliser after good work down the wings.After that it was end to end stuff and it both sides had chances to win but nether could convert.

Aldershot 4-2 Stafford

We played very well 2 Goals from williams and 1 for both John Grant and Jonny Dixon.

Hey Sunderland Keanooooooooooo is king well done lads im well happy

Spurs off to a terrible start against Sevilla, I'll be suprised if they can get through now.

Spurs did well in the second just had to much to do, some poor defending early cost Spurs the game, shame really i actually thought before the game they would go threw easily.

I think Sevilla could well go onto win it now, would've made a good final.The ref was pretty poor.Tainio at right back seemed to be an accident waiting to happen, the pace and skill of Adriano was far too much for him to handle.

I was suprised at Zokora being taken off as he seemed to be driving them on but you cannot argue with Defoe coming on and scoring with his first touch.Berbatov was unsually wasteful in front of goal.

Oh and can David Pleat get players name's right please? I never knew Samantha Janus played for Spurs.

I don't usually critisise Martin Jol but he should never have taken Zokora the guy was running through the middle at will and if anything out the two centre midfielders 'Janus' had the queiter game.

That surprised me aswell, i thought they would of taking off Chimbonda or Taino left 3 at the back and just gone for it.
