[edit] 3-0 at half time!
[edit] 3-1 Damn. Game of two halves?
[edit] Full time. "this was an excellent three points"

[red shrimp]

lets get 5 or 6 against these sheep sha**ers

[Keith]

as it stands, Chester are below Grimsby and only nine points off relegation. Would love to see Bournemouth beat Accrington today!

And they did! Accrington missed a penalty and Bournemouth scored in injury time!

Brilliant first half performance. Did have a couple of moments in the second half when we didn't want to pass to each other but then controlled it for the last 14 or 15 mins.

Well done Wayno - worked his bollox off!

Can't believe Howe didn't get man of the match

Another good performance, we did lose it on ocassions in the second half though.

Must say, i thought Chester's goal was fantastic. Just ripped us to pieces!

[Christies Child]

What is it about our second half performances of late.

I don't know what is said at half time, but yet another half when we defend far too deep.

Thankfully we had a 3 goal cushion from the first half, but had it only been 1-0 I think it could have been Lincoln all over again.

[Mark S]

Jesus! What do they have to do to get a bit of praise?

3 -1 Job done. Double over Chester (a team we have taken 12 from 12 points) and we move up a place.

I would say that is a great performance.

[Christies Child]

Yes Mark...great result....but we can't close our eyes to the concerns of the second half!

If others disagree, fine...no problem with that....

It just seems that every silver lining has a cloud and there is a need to find fault for some.

Is raising a concern, finding fault?

I thought we played very well in the first and were full value for the 3-0 lead at least. But second half...?????

Interestingly I wasn't alone in being concerned.

Next up Rochdale....

A point there will do me fine.....mind you 3 would be even better..

Still have to have the pessimisic comments cc

[shrimps]

I am happy for the reds we wanted a win and we got one 3 cracking goals and very well deserved x

He was just getting a head start before Neddy comes on...

[Abbo]

I couldnt believe todays game, first half we played some good stuff, well pleased with Neil's performance and 3 very good goals. Second half we were shit, did the usual thing of sitting back and let them come on to us.Bad pass from Neil led to there goal but how someone is allowed to run nearly 3/4 of the pitch and no one gets a challenge in is beyond me. After the first half i was looking forward to a repeat performance in the second but what a disapointment.

To even associate me with him is.... but then again....

I'll leave it to others to pass comment....

[outsider]

we won 3-1, yes
we played well, no

Even in the 1st half at times i didn't think we did.

3 points and +2 on the goal diff yes

But if i was a Chester fan going home tonight i would be asking why and how they lost?
Just as we did when coming back from Port Vale, sorry to be seen as putting a downer on things but its how i saw the game.

no i am not Ned either

[Abbo]

Thing is CC i say it as i see it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and it doesnt bother me if others disagree, its all about opinions.

We played better Tuesday and got a draw.

Today we played ok, but more importantly took our chances, which is something we've failed to do often this season.

Personally I think the lads came out for the second half thinking the game was won and were caught napping by Chester's eagerness to get the early goal back. If that's the case, then I'm sure Sammy will have highlighted it to the team.

After the early second half onslaught from them, the game settled into a bit of a scrappy affair, but there were still chances at either end.

As soon as they started running at us I thought oh god someone is running at us with pace were knakered and we wer eas they ran the length of the pitch and scored. We all know it's our biggest weakness that if teams run at us we're in trouble.

Guys

We won today 3 -1

What would you have said at half time 3 -0 up?

Did you think we were seriously in any danger of losing at that point? Did you want to risk any further injuries to the squad by trying to push for another goal? Was there anyone in the ground who seriously thought we were in danger of losing at half time?

Come on, think rationally of what the situation was for the game, what the situation was for the squad and would you have pushed the team to try and get three more?

Dont think so. It surprises me that the master tacticions we have think we should have done anything else than sit on a 3 - 0 lead in the second half. The Chester goal was a great goal but I am sure they will be seeing it as nothing less than a consolation goal.

We won the match 3 - 1

Try celebrating that fact.

[Howe Magic]

Well said mark s - to be honest we could beat man united in the fa cup and some people would still find something to moan about - excellent win and up to 13th well done to everyone last 4 games won 2 drawn 2 lost 0 for 7 against 3 points 8 from 12 we must be an awful side lol lol lol

[Abbo]

It appears to me that its ok to post only nice things about the team, and any negative stuff shouldnt appear, well thats tough. Rose tinted glasses comes to mind.
