If we're non-league then where do you think you are? It's not the first time we've beaten you this season ;-)

Have a few photos, I'm getting them online as fast as they're developing

I found the comment more amusing than annoying, we've got a collection of similar ones from teams too big for their league.

Hmm so you didn't see the game yet you know big changes are needed. Have you been to any games recently? at least it would explain why you thought Stone was the best player ever.

Thing is Gnasher your right. That's twice this season you have beaten us. :sad:

It's not a dig at the majority of fans, just the likes of tomisabee that think because we've only just risen from the conference, we're still conference quality. ANY team in league 2 is league 2 quality, they wouldn't be there if they weren't. You had some harsh decisions this afternoon but stood at the opposite end for every one I can't say whether the ref got them right or not.

Final comment for tomisabee, done the double, 2 places ahead, 3 point difference with a game in hand. I'd say that puts you about the unibond level.



P.S. All the photos are online now

Looks like I'm first back.

What a depressing day that was.

Three times the ball was in Morecambes net and it wasn't given. Twice for offside, once for a foul. Keeper made a good save. Poole had a shot which hit the post and bounced out. On another day we'd have won.

I think we need a right back, a right winger and a centre back in particular.

Very frustrating.

It annoys the f*ck out of me that we give opposing fans the "too big for this league" bollox. We are certainly not worthy of any "Barcelona" comparison, and need to hold it down a bit.

I am optimistic about the future for a number of reasons:

1. You have try to be optimistic as a Bees fan
2. Scott seems like a good man to take us forward, and I think Bully is a great appointment
3. There seems to be much more commercial savvy in the boardroom since the likes of abee got involved
4. Lionel Road feels much more likely to happen than it did months ago.

But the bare facts are that we are getting crowds of 3,000-odd and playing fairly poor stuff at the moment, so let's try a little humility...

3 goals disallowed, 2 other pens not given after missing one, hit the inside of the post twice and missed easy chances whilst losing 3-1.:confused:
Beeby was his usual self and fecked us over but let it not disguise the fact that we really aren't good enough and have many problems.
An easy target but Brown is really not very good.

Golfer is from Arbroath
Coach is from Oldham FACT.

Morecambe are sh*t DOUBLE FACT.

The Haddock from Kenny's "Old Traditional" fish n chip shop was nice.

What a weird game - lost 3-1 yet 4-6 would have been a perfectly realistic result with the chances and ruled out goals.

The sooner that **** Sankofa ****s off back to Charlton the better. Anyone who thinks he is a decent player is wrong.

Connell perhaps should have been taken off as wasnt really effective. Would love to see Reid partnered with Elder as both Connell and Elder are back-to-goal players and its not working.

To concede the three goals in the manner that we did was very dissapointing. Nice to see us creating chances.

Andy wasn't happy on Radio London. Made light of the poor ref and woodwork. I admire his attitude and talk, just hope he can sort this run and a few players out.

.

They scored 3 and missed a header from a yard and their captain blasted over from 3 yards out, so to say that they could have got 4 is a bit below the real amount IMO.

Looks like I am the first one back !

Many thanks to my chauffeur today, a handsome chap, who seems to be wanted by a hell of a lot of ladies, if rumours are to be believed...

Kenny's Olde Style Traditional Fish n Chips were good, except for the chips...Morecambe, I am reliably informed, is a Haddock town, rather than Cod, which was apt today, as Brentford had their chips p1ssed on by Beeby and his team. :banghead:

Nice to see a little bit of Brentford arrived early at the Christie Park stadium, some poorly spelt Brentford graffiti, on the side of the superbly named "Car Wash" terrace :rolleyes:

We started poorly and they had the better of the 1st half. The game was decent for the neutral, but not pleasing for Bees fans looking for signs of a revival.
On one hand, we deserved more, but on the other we conceeded 3 poor goals.

Their 1st was an error by Brown, and Osborne. Brown was hesitant at the near post, Osborne was indecisive. Drummond, the Shrimps striker couldn't believe his luck.
We could have had 2 pens in the 1st half, I would have to see the incidents again to be sure, but the 1st one looked like their keeper was beaten by Elder, and then took our striker out :nono: Beeby gave a throw in...their keeper ran away, which I took to be a sign of guilt.
The 1st half disallowed goal, didnt draw many protests, but came after a great run by Karliegh :sorted:

Poole's penalty was a poor one, run up was too long and the execution was poor.
Elder's strike, to equalise, on the other hand, was outstanding and well deserved on recent form.

2nd half we came out on top, but conceeded a goal on the break, after some half hearted tackles.
We kept up the pressure..Poole hit the post from distance, and Connell had a perfectly fine goal disallowed, by the lino. Beeby was well placed, but decided to back his man.
Another contentious decision was an alledged foul on Morecambe keeper Davies, which as he dropped a corner...I really didnt see a Bees player near him, but we must trust the superb officiating of Mr Beeby.

We hit the post again, but this decision knocked the stuffing out of us, and they scored a 3rd, as we became desperate. Brown again at fault.

I would have liked to have seen Reid on for longer, but nice to see Kevin O'Connor back.

So we lost, and in order of blame, I blame....
1. Simon Brown
2. Northampton Bee's abuse of Beeby and his brother
3. The lino who disallowed Connell's goal
4. Poole's penalty miss
5. Scott Davies, Macclesfield keeper, cheat !, poor technique

S. Brown 5 Not commanding
Sankofa 5 Weak
Dickson 7 A better game
Bennett 6 Would be a decent acquisition
Osborne 6 Keeps plugging away
Poole 6 Showed that even when he plays poorly, he can pull off some stunning strikes !
Shakes 6 Worked hard
Smith 7 Stuck his foot in effectively
Mous 5 Error ridden game
Connell 6 Unlucky not to notch, but is his partnership with Elder ever going to be fruitful
Elder 7 Huffed n Puffed

subs...
O'Connor 6 Back in the fold
W.Brown 6 Powerful shot late on, but straight at the keeper
Reid, on too late

Elder should have come off earlier, he was clearly injured and leaving him on will just make the problem worse.

No problem.

Elder never came off at all (until the end). I was suprised that AS didnt bring Reid on after 70 minutes just to try something different. Connell didnt really look at the races today and had a poor game.

What was the point of that 89th minute substitution? :rolleyes:
 

Reports and reaction from Morecambe

Both sides created plenty of chances. We had 3 disallowed and hit the post twice. A good strike from elder for his goal but we gave away 2 bad goals (their 3rd was a bit fortunate). Dickson had a poor game and struggled with their right mid all afternoon. For their first goal Brown, not for the first time, froze on his line when he could have taken the cross. Their man must have scored from 2 yards out. For the second, Dickson was ball watching so a hopeful pass put their man through on goal. The third goal was also from a cross on our left, with a looping header dropping into the top corner. I didn't see why we were given a penalty - presumably obstruction off the ball, but I think we would have complained if it had been given against us. Poole's penalty was one of the worst I have seen from a professional player - side foot, mis-hit a yard from the keeper. Sankofa was also poor - he looks terrified every time the ball comes near him. Elder worked hard. Connell will be a good player once he realises he is not Cristiano Ronaldo. Until then he will be a frustrating player to watch. We should use the remaining games to plan for next season. From todays starters I don't think we should keep Brown or Sankofa. We might as well give Reid, Pead and Charles a chance to earn their places in next season's squad.

This is the sort of cr@p we hear from the likes of Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool and I would have hoped that Brentford fans were above that.. :nono:

It's a game of 11 players against 11 players, regardless of the size of club or support. We're where we are because we haven't been good enough for a long time and that certainly won't change if the players, manager and supporters have this sort of attitude.

We are the 13th crapiest team in the football league.
 

Reports and reaction from Morecambe

We should have scored more. That offside decision to disallow Connels goal was pathetic. The lino completely caved in under that **** McLroys constant pressure.

One conclusion I can draw from today is if Heywood was fit and playing we would of walked it. We have missed him sorely.

Well, that was a grim day. All round.

Thought we were rubbish, to be honest.
Credit to Nathan Elder who worked his socks off.
Poole had his usual game, if you know what I mean :rolleyes:; thought his penalty was one of the worst I have ever seen (well, since that Tottenham fella the other night, anyway).
The irony was that we could have got something out of the game. Thought one of our goals was particularly harsh in being given offside (and I am one who tends to bend over backwards to side with officials) but this decision was particularly difficult to fathom. Talk in the pub after the game that the lino (old school description) had held has hand up that he got this one wrong.

Our defending for the 1st goal was particularly poor and Brown will (coughs politely) not be happy with the third goal.

To cap off a fine day: power failure on the train on the way meant we were stuck outside Wigan for more than an hour and didn't get back to Euston till well past midnight.

Which was nice.

Blame the things you can control, not the things you cannot. Therefore order is:

1. Poole's penalty miss
2. Simon Brown
3. The weather
4. The lino who disallowed Connell's goal
5. Scott Davies, Macclesfield keeper, cheat !, poor technique
6. The tide
7. The BFC Board (in joke)
