Congratulation to each and every player for an excellent display yesterday. It was really exciting and theteam deserved the win. Jason, today exceptional and every other player giving 100%. How disdappointing that the lads and supporters could not celebrate after the game due to trouble from the home fans., Surely they could have separated the two lotw of suporters and with 4/5 police there the only trouble they would of had was from there own fans who threw coins at players through out the match,. Poor sports, the were happy to welcome the singing and support in the bar before the game when they thought they would win, but soon changed after the game. Our lads deserved to be able to celebrate and the fans were robbed of welcoming their team into the bar. Having said that, we have a great team and I know there ae players who Fordy can bring in, but please do not spoil dynamics of this team by weakening it or changing formations that do not need to be changed. These lads are doing well and deserve the right to continue.

Agreed with all thats been said.
Though I will also mention that the coin throwing was done by a an isolated group that was there for the occasion. I think this because a hand full of there fans did say to me well done and wished us luck in the next round.Of course doesn't make it right but if it wasn't sucha big occasion it might not have happened.
Having said that the design of the large end stand is questionable under those circumstances (with away supporters below the home supporters).

Congrats yesterday! Your fans, players and management done your club proud.
All I can do is apologise for the coin throwing incident. They aren't Weston fans, I've never seen them before. They were there to cause trouble, end of. I hope you got to meet the better side of our fantastic club!
Watching the draw. I'm guessing an Oxford derby would go down well for you lot!!

Cracking game by the looks for the highlights. And massive cheers for the City goal, sounded like you took a fair few! Bit dodgy with the first half being in front of the WSM fans, is there where the coin incidents occurred? Fingers crossed the Oxford United game gets moved to the Sunday for TV. This would probably double the away support. I remember at Burton there were a lot of United fans there supporting City. Really looking forward to this, my first OCFC game of the season

yep all the coin throwing was in the 1st half, I read on there facebook though that apparently Mooney got aload thrown at him in the second half....good stand, but kinda fundamental design flaw unless you have compulsory segregation which I guess is what you would need to almost totally* eradicate the problem.
* - for the fans anyway, keeper will still get it potentially.
