Hirst will be sold to whoever will pay. He is not welcome at LCFC.

As much as I agree/hope can’t see us buying 2/3 strikers

Ben Nelson had to be stretchered off for Doncaster... 

[SouthLondonFox]

Went to the Wimbledon game for some light relief. McAteer, playing in the 10 role, scored with a cracking strike, looked very comfortable and worked hard. Seems popular with the fans.

 

Wimbledon did a “Leicester” - winning 2-1 at 94 minutes, concede a penalty which the keeper saves, and still manage to lose 2-3. Great bank holiday entertainment for the neutral.

Yeah nice to see McAteer finding his feet. Hopefully he'll continue in the same vein for the rest of the season and get a league one loan the next.

Steve Evans' explosive rant over 'scandalous' Leicester City loanee decision after Hartlepool United stalemate
Steve Evans pulled no punches when labelling referee Paul Howard’s decision as ‘scandalous’ not to send off Hartlepool United goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk.

Evans’ side had to settle for a 1-1 draw at the Suit Direct Stadium as Hartlepool wrestled their way back into the game thanks to Nicky Featherstone's second half strike as Stevenage’s automatic promotion charge stuttered.

Stevenage had taken the lead through Danny Rose’s header but it was an incident five minutes before the break which incensed the away side and left Evans irate.

 

Alex Gilbey met a ball over the top of the Hartlepool defence to race clear on goal and was confronted by Leicester City loan stopper Stolarczyk who had come charging out of his area as the last line of defence.

Gilbey attempted to lift the ball over Stolarczyk only for the Polish goalkeeper to block the effort with what Stevenage players and officials deemed was with an arm.

Stolarczyk, therefore, could have been shown a red card to leave John Askey’s side down to 10 men and a goal down.

 

Instead, Howard waved away the vociferous protests as the game continued.

“How there’s not been a red card in that first half is beyond belief,” said Evans.

“I’ll go and ask him, we’ll not get a headline on Sky Sports or BBC saying the PGMOL will apologise, but they’ll apologise in an email when they see it. It’s a scandalous decision.”

 

Evans continued: “If the referee does his job we’re playing against ten men.

“Ten men can sometimes rise to beat a team of 11, but I'm just sick to the back teeth now of decisions that are stinking. They’re atrocious in League Two.

“Gilbs tried to lift it, the goalkeeper comes up but he star-shapes off the floor to make himself big. It hits the arm and it's a foul and a free kick and a red card.

 

“I’ve no complaints with the referee in other general parts of his performance, but you can’t get a decision of that magnitude wrong.”

Despite Evans' anger at the decision, the Stevenage boss felt his team had done enough to take all three points from the Suit Direct Stadium but was left frustrated when admitting his side gave Hartlepool belief at the start of the second half.

“We were outstanding in the first half. A team who have become a real hardworking, decent side, they’ve been totally outplayed first half. They’re not at the races. They’re making changes to try and combat us,” said Evans.

 

“My concern going into half-time is we’ve not got more than one goal.

“Then we talk about being resolute but you can talk all you like in this game, when you make four errors to concede a goal, and that’s what we did inside 40 seconds, and it just gives Hartlepool a belief from being dead.

“The second half is end-to-end. They could have scored, we could have scored. They’ll look at the couple of chances they missed but, to be fair to us, at that stage we’ve gone four up front trying to win the game.

"How we don’t score in the last few minutes of the game with Luther and with Daryl is beyond me. It was easier to score.”

Sounds like nothing other than sour grapes from Steve Evans because his team are completely bottling promotion. One of the biggest knobs in football.

Sure I’ve said this before, but suspect it was too long time ago …. but thank you for doing this for every game. I suspect many of us always read these and genuinely appreciate that you take the time to summarise 🙏🥂. Out of interest, where do you get the match ratings from? 🤔

No problem, I enjoy doing it! (Especially now they are all actually playing haha)

 

I get them from WhoScored, if the ratings aren't available on there which is the case with some competitions I then use either FotMob or SofaScore

"Schofield said after match that the physio had rung him from hospital said Ben was sat up so that’s encouraging."

Sounds like a head injury from that wording? Knocked out in a collision maybe?

Looks like Hirst going on another scoring run like he did with Portsmouth last season

 

Scored again today, 4 in 4

 

Might get a go for us in the Championship next season 

 

 

...just goes to show, if you attack the near post it is very hard for the keeper to react!!!

  We stand in the same places everytime and never get our heads to the ball and we wonder why we are struggling to score from corners.

  Our deliveries hit the near post 80% of the time (either by design or incompetence) yet no-one gambles to get there, ahead if our opponents defenders.

  We had a coaching group that really was not fit for purpose.

You'd have thought a ex-goalkeeper/coach would have some ideas?

I'm reliably informed it turned out to be less serious than it first appeared and he'll be back training soon.

Plenty of them seem to have had a lobotomy op.

 

What does a lobotomy do to a person?

The intended effect of a lobotomy is reduced tension or agitation, and many early patients did exhibit those changes. However, many also showed other effects, such as apathy, passivity, lack of initiative, poor ability to concentrate, and a generally decreased depth and intensity of their emotional response to life.
