It's only effective because referees at this level are too weak to do anything about it. I really do hate these sorts of teams. You can be a route one/play the percentages side without cheating.They have got a bit of Ainsworth era Wycombe about them. Horrible anti football. But effective.
Oh yes I totally agree. It's pushing the rules and then some. The referees in this division are a joke, look at that clown last night - he thought the Sky cameras were there to see him.It's only effective because referees at this level are too weak to do anything about it.

There’s an art to embracing parts of it and rising above it (keeping your cool) when it’s going against you. We do neither and come unstuck time and time again.It's only effective because referees at this level are too weak to do anything about it. I really do hate these sorts of teams.

we've done it as well. GK going down injured vs Ipswich so ref has to stop match.It's only effective because referees at this level are too weak to do anything about it. I really do hate these sorts of teams. You can be a route one/play the percentages side without cheating.
Yup…Surely Blackpool winning helps us so I don’t understand why people are cheering on Barnsley?
We’re going to have to win against Exeter and if we do, Blackpool can’t catch us. But Barnsley losing means we can still catch them…
Well yes, Ainsworths Wycombe often did us in at their place employing such tactics.There’s an art to embracing parts of it and rising above it (keeping your cool) when it’s going against you. We do neither and come unstuck time and time again.
There's a difference between the occasional cheeky bit of gamesmanship though (Matty T pretending not to know which side of the pitch to go off when we won at Manning's MK Dons comes to mind) and making your whole identity as a team faking head injuries, taking 45 seconds every goal kick and fouling excessively because you know the referee is too weak to send off half your side.we've done it as well.

Good...so Bollockpool only increased their GD by 1Full time
Blackpool 3-2 Barnsley
Simple now we have to win at Exeter anything less it's season over .. Lincoln were always going to win against Cheltenham but that Blackpool result could be huge if Barnsley can't get a result against Northampton because if we won Barnsley also have to win .
It's up to Des and the boys now to show if they have what it takes to be considered promotion material
Same reason it did in the previous 3 maybe?They’ve had that opportunity for the last two home games.
Only to choke in front of a couple of bumper crowds. Why will that change at Exeter.
