Let's get 'em started then!

[coupwotcoup]

Just to paraphrase a certain (late) Norwegian TV commentator, I am sure he would have said something like this:

 

'Cliff Richard, Zoe Slater, Martin Fowler, John Wilson, CUJO, Charles Cowden Clarke, John Keats, Frederick Marryat, John Thomas Smith, Lenny Davidson, Ray Winstone, Paul Whitehouse, Kevin Campbell, Wayne and Waynetta, Ab's from 5ive, Paul Mckenna, Lindsey Coulson, Steven Twigg,

Todd Carty, Bob Mills, Micheal Duberry, Baby Spice, Reg Varney and other famous people with Enfield connections.

Can you hear me Cliff Richard, can you hear me? Your boys took one hell of a beating. Your boys took one hell of a beating.'

1 - 0 is not one hell of a beating! It was hard work for EFC and you'd have thought they had one the cup at the end of the match not a game of football!

[Hawkeye Pierce]

A losing streak now of two games. Nice if we could beat Hendon Boys lot but it might run to 3 in a row!

You would have acted no different had you won... which you didn't! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> No sour grapes please like last week ?

[coupwotcoup]

Just spoke to AbbeyNut. He has just landed and once checked in is off out looking for an Internet cafe!!!

[Hawkeye Pierce]

EFC played football and did not bore in the same way Abbey do!

[coupwotcoup]

...but both sides are top, and unbeaten and in comparative leagues, no?

[Gonzo]

I can't see Romford - where are they then?

But it gets RESULTS! Our tactics last week were spot on <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/affig.gif" alt="" />

[Gonzo]

That's my point. Maybe Town play the prettiest football in the league, but it doesn't seem to be getting results when it counts.

[coupwotcoup]

Pretty football doesn't always win matches. As for Romford, well at the moment we are not quite good enough to keep up there with the top guns, but we know our station and hate to punch above our weight and the ref and the pitch were okay at Ramblers yesterday. Just one great strike from Cyclops settled it.

[The Invisible Man]

Well Town's football has only failed to get results ONCE in the league this season, to be fair! And that could have gone either way really.

 

But it's true. To use a bit of a cliche, you have to earn the right to "play football". Obviously other teams are going to try to stop you, and to shut you down - this is not rocket science. Given Abbey's position and record this season, I would hazard that it happens to them in a lot of matches.

 

It's a funny old game....

[andyetfc]

Compo.

 

ETFC beat Concord on Tuesday so we have a losing streak of one!

[Hawkeye Pierce]

Just testing!

 

So it is back to town versus Ramblers for promotion!

[lovely stuff]

Town had two Rudi Hall goals disallowed in the first half.

 

How's that.? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/affig.gif" alt="" />

[Hawkeye Pierce]

Rudi is just too good!

[Southport - TOWNER]

so y were the 2 goals disallowed?

[lovely stuff]

Rudi flicked the ball (whilst it was in the air) as the keeper was taking a drop kick. I don't think the keeper spotted him.He then tapped into into the empty net. I've seen them given.But i've also seen them not given.

 

Second one ,the keeper was challenged for the ball in the air by two Town players.The ball fell to Rudi ten yards out and he hit a lovely half volley.The ref gave the goal but the lino flagged for pushing on the keeper. Again, sometimes they are given, sometimes they are not.

[Hawkeye Pierce]

I wasn't paying attention to the first but the second looked good to me!
