[ Sat 15th Sep ] v Fakenham Town KO 3pm FA Vase HOME

[BartonRaz]

On a negative note, if things don't change there is going to be a bad reputation following the club about. Chants at the start of the match were very derogatory towards Fakenham, as if there was the expectation that AFC R&D were above the opposition. Should have waited until 1-0 or soething until these started.

Something was thrown at the fat Fakenham fan when he was dancing in front of the Terrace. It might not have been anything dangerous, but it's not going to help the club's cause!

Also, one Fakenham player was tackled in front of the dugouts. It was a foul. It was a free-kick. The way Andy Peaks got into the player whilst he was on the floor was totally inappropriate. The guy had not dived, so Peaks hadn't really got a case.

If these final two points continue and it is witnessed by more people, crowds will drop and for one it isn't something that I would want my club to be associated with.

Nothing like a bit of negativity. The stuff at the start was all good humoured, until one of their fans ran across the front of the PDB with his shirt over his head before bearing his arse, i'm not sure what he expected the reaction to be...

[Diamond Warrior]

I'm not condoning throwing anything at anyone. But IMO he was VERY lucky thats all he got.

Wouldn't it have been better to not react - then he'd have been made to look an even bigger twat?

[Bob's Bitch]

Yeah, surely he should be the one getting criticism for 'mooning' when there are kids about.

It's a bit hard not to react when he's jumping up and down in everyone's sight line.

I didn't see any mooning. I saw him raise his shirt

he raised his shirt and then mooned at the de banke and then started dancing like a ****

[Scarey]

Definitely mooned DW. Looked as if he hadn't had a bath for a while...

I read that one completely differently. Our player (Gilly?), clearly won the ball cleanly, albeit with a raised foot, and we were going to break on goal, and the Fakenham player on realising this went down as if he'd had a kick to the head. The referee at that point decided to give a free kick. The player was clearly uninjured.

That was the latest in a series of odd decisions given against us - I'd have been more disappointed if our bench had just been applauding the ref for his flair with his whistle. They were having good banter with the linesman throughout the game.

That was a different incident. I'm not sure if it was the same player or not. The incident when Peaks went mental was right on the touchline.

[Scarey]

Nothing wrong with a bit of passion from our coaches is there?

That's exactly how I saw it too formic
