Hands up who's Nervous?


Recommended Posts

"Mighty Margate" & "1-1 Draw with Ashford (Middx)" in the same sentence?

 

That's not artisitic licence; that's taking the p!55!

Dont like to be negative but I can see you winning the title today.We just aren't good enough to stop you. Hopefully we will turn up today & give a good account of ourselves.If we do then who knows I might be doing the lads an injustice here but even if we do play as we know we can I doubt it will be enough.

Hunger will win the day & we are noy hungry for anything,sadly,whereas you have everything to play for.

A point will be the minimum you leave with today but in all honesty I think it will be more like 3.

4-1 to Ricay. The 8/11 odds are a must for big punters today. Enjoy your day at the seaside.

Yep, nearly worked too. We were under the cosh for most,despite your team not really threatening our goal but we were awarded two stone wall penalties. Yours was i.m.o. a typical 2-0 down given penalty.Had it been close scorewise I doubt it would have been given.

Not overly impressed with your lads but as mentioned elsewhere on here the table dosen't lie & I'm sure you have had better performances than that.

If we can stop this long ball, hoofing it forward next season & bring in a striker & a couple of midfielders who can hold the ball up we might have a squeak next season.

On the day though our defence did brilliantly & that part of things isn't a problem.You deserved your point even though in the end you didn't need it.Overall I think we deserved the point too. Well done on your championship victory & maybe we'll meet again.See you in a couple of years time eh?

All we need do now is stop Wealdstone on Tuesday from getting into the play offs but I fully expect them to win with ease. ;) ;) :D :D

I like to say things as I see them not as I would like them to be seen. I would also like to think that any comments I make are unbiased,fair & an honest assessment.

First a hand ball, straight forward penalty.Second a definate push.Was so obvious & was niaive & clumsy defending.Shoulder to shoulder didn't come into it. Both easy decisions for the referee.

As for your penalty,too often shots hit at a player from point blank range or as near as, & they cannot & should not be deemed hand ball if a hand isn't lifted towards the ball. No way could the player have got out of the way of the way from such close range.The ball hit HIM.The arm wasn't in any way lifted towards the ball.

I.M.O, Purely a consolation prize for you at the time by the referee,with you having been two down at that point .

For the the first two I was within 15 yards of so can be assured my assessment of both were spot on.The third,yours,I was at the other end of the park so am open to slight correction on that one.

Some people have had too many sherberts on the way back. First pen stonewall as DC clearly handled. The second, I was too far way to comment but from where I was it looked like RS was side by side with the defender, who went down.

 

For the third pen, I dont think the Gate player intended to handle but if you hold your arms out and the ball deflects away, then you have gained an advantage - fair cop by the referee.

 

Felt that Gate sat back a lot for the counter attack and thus Town made more of the running but were unable score from their opportunities. In the end a fair result.

Cookie a little bit biased a little bit envious. Your first penalty was stonewall, the second wasn't even close. You also neglected to mention the red card challenge on Greg Oates in the lead up to it that wasn't given. Your defender made a great save for our penalty and should,have walked. We we better all afternoon and you would never have scored if not for the two penalties awarded.

 

CHAMPIONS !!!!!!!
