extaffyjim Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Won 2-1 courtesy of goals from Osborne and Swaine. Osborne was taken off after a knock so we could be down to 0 strikers. First away points of the season so happy days, well done boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue pilgrim Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Great result. According to the BBC website the winner came at 88 minutes and then Nathan was sent off at the end. He had been booked earlier, so hopefully it was a second yellow. He really has been playing well and we don't want to lose him for 3 games.

extaffyjim Posted September 15, 2012 Author Share Posted September 15, 2012 It was a second yellow for kicking the ball away after about 10 minutes of injury time, so it's silly, but only a one game ban I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jl Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Great result for the boys today - our first points away from home. First scored by Osborn from a ball played behind their back four. A good finish considering he had missed a similar chance earlier in the game. Staines equalised just before half time after we had a collective snooze. The winner came two minutes from time after the ball came through a ruck of players and hit Swainey and went in. There was a lot of injury time after a nasty looking injury to their full back following a collision with his own keeper. I'm sure we all hope he recovers ok. The ref made a rod for his own back with a couple of early bookings but I felt he could have been a bit firmer as Staines did seem to kick us a lot. Silly from Nathan at the end - now he will miss a game but never mind it still can't detract from a very good and deserved away win. Well done lads! Come on you Blues!!

Maffblue Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Great result , i know its a bit early but I have a good feeling about this season Roll on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticks Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Both keepers made good saves but overall I thought we just about deserved the three points. We were the better side in the first half and created the better chances. The game died a bit after the lengthy injury delay but the winner came from a set piece we always looked dangerous from.

Umbrella Man Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Was an excellent result and our first away points of the season deffo deserved the win after a great 1st half and was gutted to go in at 1-1 after being on top for most of the half. 2nd half Staines got more into the game until the injury to the Staines defender Sam Bates (who is now out of hospital and actually had concussion) but it didn't look good at the time,after that the players seem to switch off(as i did) but still managed a late rally to win the game. Well done fella's on a top performance Next Stop the FA Cup ps Nice to see the Tash getting involved after the goal go on my son Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich.m Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 First points away from home and it wasn't our best performance we've have this season. Seemed to take a bit too long to realise that we needed to get Osborn running in behind rather than jumping to win headers. Please he got his firs goal, he has been moved around and dropped to the bench, but when he is on seems to always give it his all. Should of had two but I'm sure there's more to come! After the report in the NLP today saying. Nathan shoved there right back into the keeper, I'm glad there is video to prove he didn't and was merely jumping for the ball. All in all a good day out again, good following blue army and 3 points, only downside was Nathan sending off because he is in fine form, but he will learn now just to leave the ball. Roll on Saturday, let's not get caught up in the occasion, play the football we have been for 90 minutes and fingers crossed will be on top!
