My brother is there Jimmy and says it was 'comedy defending' and their keeper is 'provocatively poor'. Sounds like we could be in for some fun, he counts 27 away fans.

What a strange game!  After the first few goals went in, your starting to think 7 or 8?  But then it suddenly petered out, and fair play to the weymouth players, they battled well for the rest of the game.  At the end of the day, we have got the job done and the other results were nice so a good day i'd say!

Post by: brian1925 on March 14, 2009, 07:38:13 PM
A good day at the office I suppose, though I never want to see a game which is literally men versus boys ever again - distinctly unpleasant. What I will say is that we approached the game thoroughly professionally and did what had to be done with a stand out performance from Dale yet again. Don't think Robbie and Greg were too badly hurt, so fingers crossed there. I presume the Weymouth player who lives in Blackburn was the number 5 at right back - simply awesome. The passion and committment the Muff players showed and their acknowledgment towards their 20 or so fans was pretty heartening, I really hope the club sorts things out some time soon. Also good to hear FGR were thumped, which bides well for next week and possibly three points which will go a long way towards keeping us up.
Title: Re: Weymouth Match Thread
Post by: distancetraveller on March 14, 2009, 08:00:39 PM
Good result today .. yeah we did take our foot off the pedal in the 2nd half but a job well done.. I spoke to their manager in the bar before the game and he didnt think they would get many, of any  points for the rest of the season.

I reckon 3 more points should do it for us now.. 

sh*t attendance again but I suppose the game at OT would have something to do with that.

I too hope Weymouth sort out their finances and manage to survive.. I thought the Weymouth players kept going and were a credit to their club..

Well done Alty on a professional job well done... Bring on FG next week...
Title: Re: Weymouth Match Thread
Post by: stevio on March 14, 2009, 08:40:41 PM
I can only reiterate what has already been said, in that it was a thoroughly professional performance. Men against Boys, to the point of being uncomfortable and embarrassing at times. I can't see where Weymouth's next point will come from, never mind win. You have to feel for their fans, who have played no part in their club's demise. I think it will be a long time, if ever, when we next play Weymouth FC. Also a touch disappointed with the crowd today. As mentioned previously, though, it doesn't help when United play Liverpool on the same day...i mean, couldn't they have arranged it for a sunday or something?!
Title: Re: Weymouth Match Thread
Post by: TheCultOfIanTunnacliffe on March 15, 2009, 12:03:45 AM
Hmmm.

Graham Heathcote didn't look too pleased by some of our play, particularly in the second half, so I'd be surprised if he regarded that as being a "thoroughly professional performance" to be honest.

We started well enough but lost our way in the second half and, considering the substandard quality of the opposition, four goals was probably a disappointing return, especially as their keeper effectively threw two of them into his own net.

Credit to the Weymouth players for their spirit but I'm struggling to think of a poorer side to have visited Moss Lane at this level of football over the last thirty years (and I thought that Stafford were incredibly dismal last season!).

Relegation for Weymouth looks inevitable, even if they don't opt to go into administration soon.

Results elsewhere were generally favourable and, as George Heslop sagely commented after today's match, Lewes are now guaranteed to finish below us!

Graham Heathcote, it would seem, is a distinctly difficult man to please. He was moaning at 1-0, he was still moaning at 2-0, etc...however, at 3-0 up after 12 minute's it must be difficult for the players NOT to take their foot off the pedal somewhat, even with GH and GB (to a lesser extent), whinging by their technical area). From where i was sat in the Carole Nash Stand, GH was basically asking the player's to play a long-ball game, by whacking  it to the goalmouth and then hoping for the best. The player's were doing perfectly well without the constant haranguing coming from GH and GB. If anything, i think the Managerial duo contributed to the loss of impetus and concentration. I felt sorry for Robbie Lawton, as he, as Captain, is always GH's first port of call when it comes to his over the top reaction. Anyway, another 3 points on the board. Here's to FGR next Saturday.

Got disagree on the performance.

I thought we were terrible. Long ball over top didnt work again and had muff had a decent keeper we would struggled.

Got to a agree with GH I too was dissapointed with performance.

The three points however is what we needed,

Title: Re: Weymouth Match Thread
Post by: Ballers on March 15, 2009, 11:17:44 AM
I think it might be the continuous sh*te throw ins that have pushed us towards Dale taking throw ins.

If I'm honest though I'd struggle to label it a 'long throw', more a medium one, it needs a flick on before it gets flicked on. Possibly the best thing about it is the inevitable clearance goes straight back to Dale.

He's probably getting sick of that, he ran forward for the Stevenage penalty as we've wroked out he's by far and away the best taker at the club but Colin's pride wouldn't let him hand it over.

As one of the most competent players at the club who keeps that left hand side running all on his own he must get slightly annoyed at it.
