City v Northampton Town (19:45 Wed 16th Sept) - match day thread

[Nibor]

Actually on watching the replay a few times it was probably right, Semenyo shouldn't have pretended / tried to head it.

[Engvall’s Splinter]

Imagine setting your side up to win a game. How I’ve missed this.

Can't see what that was disallowed for.

Antoine making the move to head the ball even if he didn't connect, went to head  it and pulled out. Keeper says his movement was to save an attempt from Antoine in an offside position as it would be at a different angle to Kasey's header.

[Robbored]

Offside.

Offside

He knew he was too. Right decision.

Offside

Didn't touch it on way in.  Was he interfering with play??

Keeper sees that all the way. How Semenyo would have blocked him from seeing that I don't know. Goal for me.

He was offside and tried to head it!

Threads like this are dangerous. They reintroduce me to hope. Hope is like crack. I haven’t had any for ages, but I know how good it is to have and by god I want more!

 

Also, it will eventually kill you.

[Prinny]

Taylor Moore...oof.

Definitely, he's a couple of yards at most from the keeper 

[JamesBCFC]

Been utterly dominant secind half.

2nd goal was a lovely mix of a direct ball and skillful touches.

Don't agree with the offside for the 2nd disallowed goal.

[Matthew me]

This has been brilliant to watch

[Simon bristol]

Semenyo header just over!! Came at him like a bullet

[Kingswoodactor]

Sorry Dolls!!

I’m still lurking. Just been a bit busy with other things. Still keeping my eye on you lot though

Hi Dolls, was only thinking the other day I hadn’t seen you post in a while. You well?

Yeah, growing a tiny human which is knackering but a lovely turn of events in my life, after being told it wouldn’t be possible  

[marcofisher]

I still think a Massengo loan should be sanctioned otherwise we will have far too many firing midfielders.

It’s a massive high which is always followed by a terrible downer (Sunday)!

[Lanterne Rouge]

Kasey is on fire!

What joy to have such a dilemma in midfield with proper players

[ExiledAjax]

We've played well, had 75% possession, but only mustered 8 shots, with 4 on target. Yes two have gone in and we've allowed just two shots, but should we have made a little more from our dominance?

Great news! Best wishes

[cityexile]

I mean, it’s Northampton, but players at least look like they are enjoying playing rather than trying to remember the ‘lines’ they have been given.

[Kingswoodactor]

We're moving the ball about so quickly. Absolute joy to watch. 

[RedorDead BCFC]

Some of this play is so fast

That's brilliant news. Take care.

Can Scotty and I leave the wardrobe now ?

[Jerseybean]

All those involved tonight have made a claim for a place in Sunday’s team. Nagy in particular has impressed.

Dont need too really. If we were drawing we'd put more focus on the final third but right now the main thing is too keep possession and see the game out. Don't do anything silly.
