Hampden Diehard Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Nice to read some of the comments here from non-QP fans.Absolute scenes at 2-1 and after the penalties; one of my best away days.They looked comfortable early on but decidedly uncomfortable late in the game. Says something for the guys outlasting full timers.Gus has recruited really well and the young lads thrown in have excelled.Still buzzin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a bit at half time where a daft bint is trying to teach the Queens fans Welsh in rural Shropshire. The English commentary only seems to be live, but there might be a youtube version.

7-2 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Meant to watch this but got sidelined by England v Spain and forgot. Oops. Bad move. Great win though. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alf Stamp Army Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Trying to get the game with English commentary rather than Welsh? Any tips?I recorded it and managed to watch it back with subtitles....Apart from some annoying stuff like ‘Queen’s Park bringing us down to their level’ thought the commentary was pretty fair and honest - gave plenty of credit to QP 2nd half ‘that challenge was worth 3 red cards’ and also didn’t miss Hudson who was guilty of the stamp on Lewis Hawke btw we’ve unearthed a couple of gems in James Grant and Kurtis Roberts whose MoM was well deserved [emoji122] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Reilly Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Just re-watching the clips of our goals on youtube. After the first you see Gibby make straight to the goal to get the ball, then disappear out of shot wrestling with TNS no.12 to get it and get the match restarted so we can push for the winner. After our second he does the same thing, but makes sure he gets there first, then does his best to punt the ball over the Welsh border to slow down the restart. Love it! Great captain with brains as well as heart (though maybe not best choice for penalties.... Or can we blame that on the ref making him move the ball?). Of course the injury to Hawke led to added time in added time, so his plan didn't really work, but you've still got to give him credit for a bit of savvy amidst the goal celebrations.

Thought the Irish ref was very good apart from that. And missing the brutal ankle stamp, but he was probably well away and looking the other way.

Hampden Diehard Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 The red card incident was brutal. Quite why the guy was protesting is beyond me. He'd hardly been an angel before then. The stamp on Hawkes ankle was sheer thuggery but the guy's got away with it. The guys giving the commentary in Welsh seemed to be enjoying themselves. Quite a bit of laughter going on with the occasional English phrase thrown in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Brilliant 2nd half from Queens Park, in the end fully deserved the win. You'd have assumed it'd be the amateurs fading as the game went on. Best of luck in the rest of the competition - will be following yous intently if you outlast Connah's Quay 16 hours ago, welshbairn said: There's a bit at half time where a daft bint is trying to teach the Queens fans Welsh in rural Shropshire.

The English-Welsh border, particularly in rural areas, isn't quite as 'hard' as the line on the map suggests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expected TNS to go high intensity in the first half to knacker the amateurs for the second. Think they were way too cocky, and left a few big players on the bench I believe. You would have thought they would have learnt their lesson after Dumbarton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be a difficult conversation between him and the sugar daddy running them. Heard he has Oswestry Town under his wing too now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to live nearby and it's a pain in the arse getting to the ground if you don't drive or want a pint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith_Raver Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 The TNS manager gave Queen's Park no credit in his two interviews since the game; at full time it was all about how his players didnt take the game seriously enough and nine times out of ten he should beat teams like QP. Today in his interview he didnt even give them a mention: he still looked shell shocked tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today in his interview he didnt even give them a mention: he still looked shell shocked tho! Their "stadium" is actually a council run family activity centre - kids play area, bowling alley, coffee lounge etc - with a football pitch stuck on. You buy your tickets at the coffee bar and go out through the sliding patio doors onto a deck that had a long single row of what looked like dining table chairs with cushions on. The "stand" is half a gazebo. and then the wee shed at the back of the goal. Looks like a half-decent junior/LL ground. In the family lounge there's a bar in the corner and the walls above are spattered with pre-match pennants from lots of "foreign" teams, about a third of them from IRN-BRU games. Locals were really nice and friendly but as a football club they're living a fantasy to think they're anything more than a wee local team. Ridiculous to think they were in the same rounds of the Champions League as Celtic. If the coach thinks they were poor it's because Queen's park made them look poor.
