Hello and thank you for listening to the b.b.c. Local radio on the internet unfortunately the current programme on the little in date they hit the crossbar early on but apart from that didn't really offer much of a threat until I you scored albeit from a marginally offside position and then even more so out of the player in the final minute of The 9 say nothing popped up to score after Di's long range shot was powered by really Ok what are the parents when you manage a collar scuffle you out well food one Swanzy yaks them win for Swansea a big win for Chelsea at home to Stark John south of Chelsea 5 Stoke nail Chelsea one this info was all over after 8 minutes when goals from Ruediger and Drinkwater Pedro who was terrific all afternoon added the 3rd after just 24 minutes and start with and staring down the barrel when converted from the penalty spot before and Zaba Costa added a late 5th Chelsea to 2nd for now 7 straight home wins Stokes cavalry will return for Newcastle on Monday what an important game that is for them and Mark Hughes Chelsea Fife stuck.

B.b.c. Radio. Chris in Ipswich says so awful awful awful back to last season no fights no creativity no plan b. Was clear from minute one we were overrun in midfield and that McCarthy did nothing to stop it only got back into it when they took their foot off the pedal time for a new manager says Chris let's rejoin Mick Mills Portman Road or town did come back make a case of too little too late there were changes half time and the county kicked in I guess when when Ghana got that goal there was a bit of fight but you know too little too light. Yes You know sometimes a half time comes and one team doesn't want to come in the other team does because it was so one sided in the 1st half it was unbelievable and Darby will have gone into their dressing room did disappointed to be just one nil in front you know they had missed 23 very very good chances on top of the goal they got so tell needed to dress and half time they needed to make changes and you know make did they were very drastic changes to the system we were applying you know so you know he came out in the 2nd 2nd house same players same 10 outfield players but it was a it was with a back for a midfield 3 a unit 3 in front of them and then in front of that there was per cent Salena off Martin wagon and Joe Garner So we sort of flooded the midfield with players taken that away from Darby County because Darby County had that in the 1st half where they dominated the midfield and we forfeited the width. And when you do that you needed to for backs to give you the width and just attack on every occasion and we managed to get that from our full backs the biggest problem we had in the 2nd half was that before we could make that new system work Sam window sort of gets the ball on the left hand side it's not a chance he's just got possession of a ball and decides to take a shot from some distance some mango and he sort of finds his Sunday best if you like you know just absolutely perfect strike you know where to kneel down so you know then we've got to we've not only got to sort of make the new system work but we have to find 2 goes to get something out of the game and and that's really where we found it just a little bit too much we did make the system work we did make Darby struggle and it was mainly through having the extra number in the center of midfield and the fact that we had 2 very willing for. We actually had 3 in the end but initially it was Jordan Spence and Jonas conniption who decided I'm not going to spend the whole afternoon marking Tom Lawrence and. Russell on Russell on the right side Johnny Ross on the right side for Darby they just said no when we get position to go in they took a gamble the gamble came off Tom Lawrence was found wanting as a defender Russell was found wanting as a defend and you know they just made it work you know and we sort of put them on on the rack we pushed them back we won numerous corners one you know we've we got in there nicely and we've got the 1st goal which gave us a charge we want to lot of free kicks in good areas which we could have done better with. No we could have forced a draw or it would've been Disha because even you know when we're actually picking the game up Darby County still looked very dangerous this time the 1st off it was on sort of pushing us back and making us defend long periods but 2nd half they were catching us on the break because we pushing forward and they looked dangerous you know they didn't actually create that chance to put their selves where you want to hit a little bit you know it was much more even you know purely and simply because we changed the system town of this huge injury list this one a few people points in the sex in this well Christian house with this was in a bad performance by its Richard all we went for in the 2nd half hour she survived McCarthy has lots of injuries to deal with what's he supposed to do ask for since Alina it's a team game you can't form a team around one player and the run and Steve expected little gutless against another multi-million assembled squad even a fully strength side would struggle to contain Darby particularly in midfield we gave a brief go in the 2nd half but McGoldrick a parts little else on the bench to change things at least we've only got full him next they say ricin Hadlee at least the McCarthy ounces of gone. We were not good enough to use who to plea to squat and clients on the bench example McGoldrick and Smith thank you Reese because the fantasy from Jamie who was that the guy. I was also a footballer listen to die. Or creation baby got a lot of someone in the diving. They. Wouldn't give him. To play very obvious they would just. Give increase of the bit in. The gym. Because they doubt. You'll sit down now but again you're going down to solid when they really want to open up because pretty obviously involves quite the miles it's a. Good decision. If they're going to get another chance. So. That's the difference they've got. Beyond their potential is all still just 5 points off in so many town $1011.00 but because of Leeds is lost in. The So these 5 points off Jamie in terms of priorities then it sounds like your You're looking at the midfield we were talking had a kickoff we never expected towns have a shortage in midfield this season but the way injuries have gone it's been terrific in that department. Absolutely we missed you for your beliefs. Being so sure we still don't see that we can see. Better. Every race because opinion we should be. What is a. Risky thing has already been a culture that. The back to back a place. On the far east Gentry's the ball have to change so it's. Just one face let me see because we've got just. That we. Just look next. Jamie good to hear from you let's hear from Danny who is also the game Hi Tony if you're a man you're right yeah Nazi but what your thoughts in this into Jamie there in terms of potential transfer targets I talked to our senses Hello there I think we all know where played in the midfield area affected Kevin Brewer starred in its 1st choice star suggests that you know we're very to play it because you know it was what was later 40 ready to be a late start of season we're looking about people's image there in front of him now you start the game and yes goose is badly badly missed the nice guy puts in lots of tackles is probably the best on the right player the club I would say because he claimed for absolutely nothing from Bristol City people forget that McCarthy has done for us and scoots is a so reliable in breaking apply up and keeping the ball there's not much trash a car you don't score many goals 1st you don't create too much but he does a job which is stop and them a lot of the time in that central midfield area I thought Carney had a very good going over all but through you know showed Well you probably except for comments he went up to that I. Over Oh you know I was plays we had a guy out for the last half an hour on that and at a good guy we're going to Catholic helps in the end because Darby are a good side and I went up to the game of Pride Park in a car features totally got it spot on there we scored an early goal every man talked to a man and we took we finished a well deserved win please just reply to say he's not saying it's a diy all the plans all the things that were done the training ground all the man to man jobs and everybody we can say the stupid story head on a 6 yard box and 10 minutes because that window they were chasing the game against the side they're going to kick the ball the side Huddleston is is a much much much money because of the guns replied No Premier League and now we're competing against people like this we can get one elite the 2nd goal was all here one day ago you got just a lot going for the opposing team but you do some wrong to sit there and so I were fair enough I mean I'll accept that it's a good go. And that's a great tradition which you knew down was you know still if you thought the minutes on the clock you know we found a while back into the game and then we had a god we could possibly go draw again we didn't really deserve to but I'm afraid of meeting us boys for an hour and that's why we lost a guy and I know in the top so that Sunday will be a playoffs in the shoulder for me photo I was in the season but I got here huge choice applies you know Martina Newton the come on didn't get used to I did I over him really that walking to actually going to help ourselves to applies only while if somebody was talking to unhappy because I didn't expect us to weigh in and we got a good account for us often now Dani good to hear from you ality from Matt next time at every girl how you doing. Good Also majority of the. Men against boys are so we did you know they embody that saved her their parts in the game there's a couple of bits in the 1st place and the football will say is turn your sails for the last half hour we could has it done really well I mean we could push the tour today if it was a bit more call it a bit more creativity for a little think we're critical from the Kamal we expected nothing to seek and I'm sure today. We're getting quite a lot sex and we've had a few calls in recent months as well people talk about how much town I'm missing coast now when he's in a lot of people saying he shouldn't be in there in each one of those private divides opinion but seemingly since he's not been there for the past few games everyone loves him all of a sudden. Thing of always been always. People in the middle. Ages he gets it done and plays and some just noise food which most of the fans only want him to serve food because the work I think we sometimes miss a lot some we just discussed get it down and they just put it back to Chambers maybe out of the words sometimes you just get food nothing amiss not another thing water the best game today but I think the best game even in the midfield. Realistic missions case I flew back for the munchies class saw the results of health tips which today in terms of still being just 5 points off the top 6 What are your thoughts out front with a Black Christmas in terms of in terms of the playoffs I saw or is that just unrealistic anyway we had to reach call the other night and said you know a miles of being a playoff thing. So you could see the difference it seems a from Holland save. A bit more they played around see the 2nd goes much more call a so I think in terms of also just don't think we can we at the minute we're going to be good enough to push but you never know we could. We could stay because of Seahawks are so we could have critical at least 2 or sometimes like us or didn't see well I didn't say much. They were. Another team we could go to if we should actually against keeping. The one options is called We should have our victory from them and maybe today is just as games they just say they were the better team. Matt Great say from you I will hear from Eric in just a moment's talk about the referee Let's rejoin mill supporter and rodent and yes sounds mid-field a moment with the injuries is that become is that the key area now in terms of strengthening mills in Jan we wouldn't we would not set this high 33 weeks ago really would we did sound had a had a surface of Matilda's rally and perhaps they needed to strengthen in defense but I don't know I don't know whether it's going to happen with we're going to bring in a midfield because they have got so many when they're awfully sick again but when that's going to happen I don't know you know I think that's the problem and you know can you sort of bring players in you can certainly bring players in short you know to sort of cover the horrendous injury problem we have in midfield moment but not long term you know you just end up with too many you know that just be you know there becomes somebody will become surplus to requirements sooner or later because we have got bundles of midfield players I think you just have to pretty much grin and bear it you know as long as we've got 3 that we can put on live on the pitch and maybe have one on the bench that can come on then I think we have to just get on with it because surely you know one or 2 of those the Rangers are going to come back so you know Madge interest in NY Dan will be available you know not too long into the new year same with Downs. You know we just got to wait for the really basic play and now I think that you know generally speaking I think the midfield has been our problem pretty much since Mick McCarthy came to the club I can remember having this conversation time and time again year after year after year you know just to say yeah we're Ok at the back we've got some good forwards you know we haven't got anybody to Nettie all together and you know pretty much what I wished ended it 2017 now I think we've had that sort of debate discussion in sort of 2013 quiet since obviously. It's in playoff season when it was was fully fit and you had the combo of Bishop skews in mainly a 442 it when sun and then didn't it particularly Yeah because everything came right didn't you know but you know after that you know it sort of just disappeared again you know and you know we've been trying to get it right and maybe you know we've never Mick has never had the chance to really put it together but I do feel that he was sort of trying to put together the 3 some of the. Coast Scuse. Me. And. At the Amy that which is going to be I think its 1st choice 3 never seen it so we've been a little bit unlucky there then of course you know when they were absent you know we were taking a chance on the youngsters started off with you know poor 0 on Dreda Zell who very unfortunately you know only did 40 odd minutes then Trista night and came in the team Flynn downs came in the team when they looked he thought yeah this is something here we've got a future here you know but then you know they're sort of contributions of pin sort of limited because of the Audi injury. Mayhew's came into the side started to settle injured for the season. At e.a. May we haven't really seen enough of them you know so. It's difficult it's a very difficult area and you can't you know your budget doesn't allow you to bring in for those players to go into the treatment room and then bring in some more you know you can have it you know because all of a sudden you maybe when you need to make sure that your numbers are right either at the back or at the front you might go stop for 15 you know to have the numbers there just to bring in extra midfield players and then all of a sudden you know you end up with too many midfield players it's a really difficult I mean this is very unusual scenario. I've never known so many players to be injured in that one area of the pitch I don't think I really don't think that the owner can sort of invest in that area in the trial in the transfer window because of the league because we've gone down to 11 you know it's not a not really a gamblin position for me then can you bring in better than what you're going to have coming out of the injury. Just going for the past 5 on b.b.c. Radio Suffolk final hour of final match save 2017 back to the phone lines in just a moment McCarthy's thoughts on it to someone Darby constitutes a come from Mark in Hadley sex in says awful awful awful choose I was bad but the 1st off that I one of the worst sort of football I've seen the Pullman road here the excuse of lack of midfielders we were plenty strong enough today to do better than what we did says Mark Cowan and Nigel say die 1st half so many unforced errors at times he was static with players having no idea what to do with the ball 2nd off much better with Ghana's goal but once again we missed Skewes in midfield as saw I was walking home from the going says when were the rules changed to allow ham balls in the box I see an explanation I can think of after 2 obvious penalties were missed on Boxing Day one for each side another Blyton one by a Darby defender today yes we were poor in the 1st half and should have been 3 or more down but we did well to come back in the 2nd half and have been robbed of an equaliser by such an awful decision is a real kick in the teeth Eric is on the line now and you also want to talk about referees Eric or is it in a similar vein to what size saying they are yes it is because I think q.p.r. The referee was. All full well you cannot get it to go away it was exactly the story when the whole hour their glory or maybe I would go holy. Hell in a way all I could call. A wicket in. One of. The Well. You know what. You know the will of the people who think. When they are consistent say with so much officials as well as with the truth and I don't think Mick McCarthy Can any that the will is with what he's got at the moment I think the most. Yes we could get rid of all this might be for real. By people who care an attacking midfielder in law. You know whom down to the following if it is Mark a servant is not prepared to put the money into what can legally. Cast you or care about Teva McGoldrick performance today when he came on his best hour for the sounds of things I want you Mike is the situation at the club at the moment where would you like to see employed long term Well I think I think a lot just behind in front from just behind the front from 3 or 4 legged trying this was fantastic in the 1st car itself asking a few told why convert the socks off almost 20 years are you who I usually think is are you free as that guy in a long time or needle commentator for the for the position for the series again if you play in the middle giving much and then become trickle down like you used to write physical to him which are going to get him an interest but it does create that magic touch might be different. Erica good to hear from you we'll hear from Frank in just a moment I'm sure you you saw that potential penalty for Ipswich summit mills per can town argue that it's been hard done by the last couple of matches on that front . No I really couldn't see talking about 03 there was you know we had the one of the 1st one on Boxing Day we would have gone for town which would have probably been the all important one you know being given a never but he says the Seine on film since that it was definitely Ham ball and they also say that the one at the other end was hambo didn't see the one today but we really are clutching at straws you know we we mustn't start thinking. Any of those decisions you know really sort of took away a deserved you know win on Boxing Day and a deserved rule here today because you know I felt the Queens Park Rangers without question you know will of travel back to London failing that they did ample you know to get a result you know if any team was going to sort of deserved to win it on Boxing Day It was probably Queens Park Rangers because they did fern away so I'd had you know a lot of the game you know sort of play some good stuff and and today I mean if you'd seen the fun in this county team you know would have expected to have gone in certainly to New up possibly 3 new up. Because they played some cracking stuff so we mustn't sort of you know start talking about light decisions or bad decisions by the referee of Costas you know because an awful lot has gone on before that. Couple on Twitter this is from Ben Moore says Town need to invest in January and need it skews badly today Charlie says it was the spark that lights the flame that lights the fire today we didn't have any of that Wacko and kept us in the game suffering culture after the Darby when away I highlighted how important is to our side when others were questioning his worth I totally agree with Matt who called in earlier his comments Cruise is a very underrated cog in our whale jokes Sadler's sex insists a Pointing out of him we have to say we comforted by the better side we weren't at our best admittedly but until Mr Evans steps into his pocket will never be able to compete with these types of teams I wouldn't mind says Joe if David McColl trick left in January he's been a great but it's in his in the club's best interests that he moves on Erica's thoughts on Dave McGoldrick what about human Mills he wasn't asked his best Sefton oon. He's not really had a position this season is not a position that he likes anyway. No And I think that it's the system change I think you know when Mick 1st came into the club Hughes very very much a 4 for 2 man and that sort of lost it's certainly 20 months you know all from November to the end of the season of his 1st season and then for the whole of the next season very much for $42.00 and that sort of allows David to have one of the front 2 positions which he's best at when you go to this 4231 system he can play is the lone striker with Joe gone a place he can't do that one he can't do either of the wide ones that you know to to the left touchline right touchline he's only got one position that he can sort of compete for and that's the one behind Joe Garner. And I think we've we've just have I think you have that now I read an article I think it was Les Ferdinand doing an article and he was sort of same where of all the number 9 is gone I'm Why doesn't anybody in the playground want to be a number 9 anymore they all want to be one of the 3 that plays behind the front by and you know and and he said as a you know as a member of staff at Queens Park Rangers he gets loads of people you know agents sort of often in players and nearly all where does it where is his best position or he can play down the left he can play down the right or he can play as a number 10 that seems to be the popular ones now days you know so and and we've got all the managers switching to that system Mick McCarthy included and I'm not sure whether there is one. Sort of suits David McCullough trick absolutely to the hilt you know and and we have that you know when everybody's available we have him make favoring play name on the right touchline and Martin Waghorn playing as the number 10. You know not in favor that you know I think it should be the other way round but this is the problem David has you know I think he is at his best when he plays up. Alongside the striker you know like he did with their own feet that says ideal you know but at the moment within this club I'm not sure whether there's a position paper can say that small I'm and I'm going to be selected every time you know apart from when the manager writhings I need a rest look at the game says Who would be on Porter I know point turning up after 65 minutes why cut Marcus we need investment that was a throwback to last season I just image search not good enough as yet again Abu Dhabi was very good in my opinion something has to change Gavin style market all I can say is was Tommy Smith done wrong direct replacement for Gavin for Adam Webster says Gavin So what McCarthy said to surface in the press room but we should have for his thoughts on today's match before 6 o'clock on b.b.c. Radio Suffolk a final call of 2017 he's been going for a long time has been very patient it's Frank Frank. Is actually interesting to wait for quite a while because some of the comments made in far the majority of the comments made by you callers I agree with I mean I think the very reason. Recent comments that they've made. It already play blame the referee when things go wrong and you know when we get those decisions with a lie to me we tend to look cynically at the rest but I have to say only David McGoldrick debate Personally I would say Selim I think he's. Coming today I can't remember one incident where he actually controllable didn't lose the ball the evil many doesn't ever to chase back is too slow thinking we've seen you know he has to sell by date. Really if our young early in the season I kind of did this tongue in cheek we we've had to come up with our best town 11 and I left him out I do I genuinely think he's he's probably the best footballing player the club because I'm used to seeing him try. Back so much I don't like seeing them then we've just been having the argument about you know strikers and all these different positions I prefer to see my friends and I'm not dropping deep and. Criticized it was tongue in cheek and I didn't mind criticize quite heavily Buffy fans said how could you leave McGoldrick out the team but a few people as saying that but but to move him on in January meant Mills What were your thoughts on the. No I don't think. There's really nobody at the club that I would sort of personally move on I think we've sort of got this injury list and we have to respect it and you know we've got to keep everybody it's you know all hands in the palm really and you know what was the point you know what would you get for David McGoldrick now you know I mean would you get anything for him you know with his contract not sure on contract is a contract up at the end of the season he's got you know then they got the option haven't they they can they can trigger the option that is within us can use in a few days ago well then now is the time the time you have to sell it because if you leave in another transfer window then then it starts to sort of tumbles I'm not sure I'm not sure whether there's a market out there for David McGoldrick at the moment you know you know I just think that he's a handy player to have around and I don't think you get very much for him so you know I don't see the point of basically going back to Frank I would I would always have him in the team if he's playing in a more talking role. Possibly possibly drain the point of it bad to have all the skill in the world we know that it's just how he uses it most of the time he says sort of irritates me he's a lazy sort of like when these carefree passes and they come off they look beautiful but then they don't look around see it so many times now when he loses the ball he's you think he's got it what's he going to do with it he's looking up thinking about his next pass and then he seems to get just off the ball far too easily for the player with so much skill Now the other point about coal skews I agree completely with most under-rated player in the absolute style set up I think you go back to the days of Roger Osborne who was a similar way largely ignored the win goal of course in 578 when it sits on the f.a. Cup Cole skills as a player doesn't score very often but he gets stuck in you really notice how good he is when he's not basically. 5 points off. 6 That hasn't changed with today's results trying to being a Mayan dreamland by saying that town can still get in the comer Yes they can but Madison Probably not because you saw the difference the gulf between Darby and Ipswich did they look at how many President Premiership players still have in their ranks and if we could sort out our injury woes which is certainly not make McCarthy's fault and sort out our midfield sensually then the still hope but at the moment with Christmas being such a depressing the last 2 home games 0 points Well it is a full on hope at the present time I'm afraid Frank good to hear from you he's our last call a happy new year to so lawlessness will call us and Texas on p.b.s. For any sort of a saving or pulls tweeted since considering the injuries I felt hounded Well today poor decision though to bring gone I often said of Tommy Smith Tommy clearly disappointed on the sideline at pool and another Paul Paul Markham on the way back to Peter Brown has a question for you McMillan your opinion on having defenders on posts for corners he says had we had a defender in the past they wouldn't get the 1st go. Something that changes and changes and changes and you have to sometimes you as a coach you actually you tend to ask you go keep What do you want you know and I think most most of the time I've always sort of said you know when you doing a corner set play against it's you know you speak to your goalkeeper and then you know he says what he wants and you say to the rest of the team right this is well you know we are having a not tell you I would have always had 2 on the post but what you found that some goalkeepers don't want one on the far post some don't want to one on the near post some only go for one some go for 2 but everybody has the one in the 1st man position the position that everybody thinks that the corner take a should always eliminate It's not that easy if you get a tall guy standing as the 1st man he's the man stands towards the corner kick you know he's the 1st one that it's going to reach and they have to get over the top of him and that's the corner difficult and then there's one that Joe Garner does the role that the goalkeepers like it somebody in the central position on the edge of the 6 yard box they still don't do any marking in the just opposite on the left that you know that the goal keeps on the line he's on the 6 yard box he's day taking care of the vital space that maybe is just out of reach of the goalkeeper. They tell you the goalkeepers tell you I mean they could go for you know 2 on the post one on the 6 yard box one is the 1st man and then as a coach you say right I've got 5 players here now I want to leave one up the pitch at 6 there's 5 to do the mark in and that's how you know and then you sort of then look at the opposition and you say right they've got this one normally they have 5 in the box that's the normal amount that go in the penalty area so you've got $5.00 to $5.00 anyway so you know that's that's basically what you do but it is. Goalkeepers there actually sometimes tell you you know I can't remember Paul Cooper always used to end up he I think he liked the near post taken care of but it was happy to forfeit the back post. The much more modern day goalkeeper tends to say no I don't need anybody on the near post because that is a area that I can see I want somebody on the back post which I'm not I actually can't sort of actually say you know they're the ones they tell you what they want some prefer one thing some prefer the other you know just finally make the last 3 games disappoint in terms of results in losing one nil away it will spur town would have expected more and and if we wanted more from the last 2 home games 5 points off the top 6 the turn of the year after that $61.00 last chance we'd have definitely taken it but what are your thoughts going forward I am pleased with where they are the can they kick on can they can they do it. Now personally I think that we will end up sort of you know hopefully where we are I don't I don't see is you know what I can see is sort of pushing for a top 6 place I don't think we're quite good enough to do that to you know we have too many players missing you know too many vital players missing you know so. You know I can just see this season as a season that is better than last season. I like 2 things about this season or like the introduction of some of the new signings they've all come in you know Waghorn gonna people like that terrific you know that's a plus point and the other one is obviously the youngsters you know and you know players that I didn't even know you know the Night them Flynn downs you know they've come in you know terrific you know I mean I like you know light that they should be in the. Together you know so with Coast years behind them so they have been a major plus point really to you know they go ability they've got they strongly tenacious they've got good attitude you know this is being good things about this season but you know how quickly this won't sort of finish here but you know I think it's going to be tough for us to get to those top 6 positions Well yes we will catch up in $28.00 seamen you'll be away with Brenner at Craven Cottage for our 1st match nights of the new year until then a very Happy New Year to you yeah Happy New Year to you Graham and all the listeners of course just gone $26.00 on b.b.c. Radio Suffolk McCarthy's thoughts still to come before we're done he's like to sing in the press room and he'll be things cross-check since a print out before we're done at 6 a couple more checks an anonymous one here saying all these people saying that we should have brought on Tommy Smith Adamic I offer is rubbish we're 21 down we need a goal McCarthy makes the right decision by bringing on the more attacking option and we're not. Man in Ipswich says yes Dave McGoldrick had an unusually bad game today but move him on in January don't be so ridiculous Plame as a number 10 let him pull the strings play offs still possible it's a bonkers League thank you very much for those whiten from McCarthy Let's turn our attention to non-league football locally Bostic Premier Division this afternoon license match with Mark 8 called off their weight need to markets in an all suffer clash from 1 o'clock on New Year's Day Worthing Neil Lowestoft town full time school today need to market drew 11 away when getting financially will hear from the Needham boss Richard Wilkinson very shortly he's been chatting to Simon wore the boss ignore today no match for Barry town the fix with with some cold off to use a water pitcher meadow finished a very warm a.f.c. Sudbury want to head through Alex Turner on 17 minutes sub we had restarts and sent off early into the 2nd half but rescued a point through at late goal from Ekiti McKenzie 11 finished and the 2 no one from Milton whole town rounding off what really has been a terrific 2017 for them winning promotion for the Bostic League and an excellent run and the f.a. Trophy as well just your courage and cloudier folks who with 2nd half goals for Jean Grey Goose aside Milton whole town to town and into the fella none Premier Division Brown from athletic to new market town one Felix and Walton United 3 Gholston 2 I believe the Seasiders who were top of the primitives were to nail down in that once or terrific comeback from them to win 3 to Great Yarmouth town to Ipswich wondrous nil Wroxham nil long Melford one in the 1st Division said I asked the supreme reserves once what from town to from town to team Barry warm and Holland f c nil Devon m l c 3 few rain offs a day we have results from today in the touchline s.-i l. League as well just a couple from the senior division Achilles beating West and by 3 goals to 2 and also finished united to Capel plough. $3.00 and $2.00 more in that division run some sports one battle some Mary 6 Westerfield's United 2 grounds for $24.00 matches from touched on Exile Division one Ipswich athletic nil Trinity Red Devils 5 nil sporting to stop of Falcons Neil Clayton for Wickham market one back to United 2 but going back to need a market's match why anyone want to finish which it will concede ahead through Atta Mills on the 5 minutes Mark Charles Smith scoring in the 78th minute to a point for the home side. Richard Wilkins with Simon wore full time where Richard it's a point at the side there are 9 for the league so with you getting 28 you could say that was sort of a success but in the terms of the match in the context Mirren I've played bringing fishery the 7580 minutes yeah we were a bit disappointed in the. Domination 1st off and we should have had another go 2nd half of it with series of chances but hadn't really tested a goalkeeper as much as or should have done and you just sort of think in a in a game that was probably a bit by the very very strong wind across the pitch you know if I got one decent ball in the box. You know you just felt like it was when desisted it was going to you know that there was a fair chance that if they did get something on it would go in and that's exactly what happened but if you look at the 2 goalkeepers that I thought he was their best man Shane Gould for them he pulled off 3 or 4 Superbe saves and they got a Mills. Yeah I mean there. Is money and he's done a brilliant say from Jamie gracious as well lucky it was you know the wind he got down low and Tippett round the post and you know you actually look at what James by Brooke has done for us today and yes really at any. No he nothing nothing at all and that's a distant. The boys after which. Point it would join a guy. About 4 or 5 games where we could. You know did someone tell you 75 minutes at 1.11 players in their own box. In a corner. It was very windy out there and I think sometimes when. We were showing for them to stick up another $1015.00 yards. And. I think. He was. Disappointed. With the way it was going I was pushing forward and and so we went back a little bit more than what we should have done and then when they. Actually possible for the. 1015 minutes. And you know we can. Take a point on their travels and. It must be frustrating for you as a manager because you and 20 position in the league and the way. You should be in the top 5 or 6 surely. Is good but with. Only one and when you get one point it's better than none when this free point for when you know it you know you don't seem to get. 6 or 7 but we've. Got to be happy with the performance I just think a little bit more. And we would. Good to see Sandy back yet you got to know him minutes under his belt look very sharp 1st off we're going to take him up about 510 minutes to go but then they showed So you you know you know they saw it forced to him you know. Nothing really felt and it felt for Adam and. Eve had 2 good chances where you know the keepers might you can try for one. You know we were a little bit disappointed if you call them corners and free kicks when we got on the end of the 1st ball but you know we just skimmed skim they're far post to wash now with headers really about a contact image and it's going. You know so you've got to be positive about things I think it's been we're now seeing a little bit of positivity in the games of reply and. To come to. The lake not not an easy place to come of. Age But today the wind was atrocious really and to come away with a point and be disappointed shows of all become rich Wilkins with some war on b.b.c. Radio Suffolk after winning things they will need a market one in the Boston premier just to recap also a point for Lowestoft on the road at Worthing mill mill that one finished in the north a valley one a separate one all 3 points from Milton whole town that would be hard for to nail an awful match Come on trips or sound Want up the county to yet say if McCarthy things cross will have been before 6 but like to surface in the press room this evening after the defeats running through other results in the Championship or so Premier League before we're done at 6 we're going to talk at darts right now enjoying Dan Dawson live at Alexandra Palace ahead of a big night at the p.c. World Darts Championship where Peter snakebite writes conqueror Jamie Lewis takes on Phil Taylor and we play during 6 you down with with suffix pizza right to what he's promising to conquer all before him in 2018 and double this tournament wins tally which would seems impossible because he had a good year in spots if it got out in round 2 here. At the best year of his career I mean he's won more the. While a dozen titles including his 1st big war on c.v. The u.k. Open played some phenomenal stuff I think at the start of the year you could make a very very strong case for Peter right being the best player in the world but it didn't happen for him this year as well you know world championship because he just ran into Jamie Lewis who played the performance off he's in life it was absolutely unreal stuff from the young Welshman and Peter Wright as you probably heard earlier on thinks that he's been beaten by a guy who's going to go on to make the top 10 top 5 in the world there's no shame in losing losing a match to a player playing that standard stuff but it will be a disappointment for Peter right because he came into this is the world number 2 thirds favorite for the title and there was a very real chance of him going in climbing a 1st world crown but if he does go and deliver on his you know goal of winning 20 old titles I mean you're approaching world record territory there is anything done only been done by 4 players in the past who have won 10 titles in a year which is what Peter Wright's achieved ready in a very exclusive club but he is a man who set sees his goals very very hard semifinals not someone Jamie literacy you mention a Scot feel the power of the 16 times world champion and when we last coats off Phil was it was quite techy he wasn't didn't seem to be enjoying it fast forwards 9 attend Gary Anderson yesterday and it could be it could be a fairytale ending. Yeah and it's just got better and better and better filter when you compare and contrast is behavior in the 1st game of the tournament where ye only sort of edge past Christo and last night when he began Anderson $53.00 I mean at the end of the 1st set was mucking around down the front of the stage he was pretending he was filming it on one of the t.v. Cameras e-e stopped after the 5th set to get the score sheet and handed out some fans in the crowd he just looks a lot more relaxed and he believes that he can go and play in this 17th World title and I don't think he did when he turned up to this year's Wm a world championship he's up against Jamie Lewis he's a heavy favorite to go through to the final and you know Wolf you can never write off Phil Taylor I didn't think he was going to go and win another war fail didn't think he was on the bookies didn't but right now he's got a very very real chance and winning a nice final ever tournament before retirement after 30 years at the top of the game I mean it's something out of a Phil it is it is something we did not think could happen at the start of this year but he won in Blackpool at the world and he might at the biggest title in the game to his collection for was 17th time well if he does win a mark of go and beat rob Cross who had a terrific debut under palace then then it definitely would be like something out of a film when well yeah I mean you've got the most successful player in the history of the sport against the best De Vries right now and a man who is sets all kinds of records piecing even the ones that Phil Taylor set and you thought would stand for years and years and years. Ago when he's undoubtedly the best player in the world right now but don't write off Rob cross because Rob has beaten him once this year that meant 9 times and v.g. Is right now with him in the other 8 and some of them have been heavy defeats some of been very very close and they've been in big tournament the only going really has been beating on a consistent basis over the last few months is the world number one and Raymond van Barneveld the 5 time world champion who actually did rattle envy. Last night he was only beaten and deciding set in the quarter finals he set a red cross Phil Taylor is leaving but the new Phil Taylor is here and his name is Rob Cross now that is high praise indeed and I don't think anybody is going to go and touch his record of 16 or potentially 17 world titles in a career but even to be mentioned in the same breath as the most successful player in the sport I think that is an acknowledgment of just how spectacular this Deb year has been for all cross and it's not over yet of course Dan good to catch up as always Dan Dawson Alexandra Palace for b.b.c. Radio Suffolk ahead of the semifinals of the p.c. World Darts Championship Jamie Lewis versus Phil Taylor when. Rob cross and Ali palates and I 21 minutes going to Ashton gates in the championships evening kickoff and it seems Bristol City home to Wolves it's nil nil wolves though the table toppers event Danny Bart sent off in the 14th minute of that one else around the championship the saf to noon a playoff chasing Leeds United and Sheffield United both slipping the bottom of the table Birmingham City beating Leeds by goal to listen Sanders a primal line to finish Sheffield United Neil Bolton Wanderers warm not many people have seen those results coming elsewhere bones league warm reading one yank Ermac and putting reading in front on 60 Minutes pick with a late equaliser for bones the in stop sign at Bradford to Sheffield Wednesday nil at Griffin Park another disappointing afternoon for knowledge City's are nil nil away at Burton Albion hole lead full and to nail a full in hit back in the 2nd half and finish the 22 for the movie it sure sounds 1st opponents of 28 seen every kick of that one from Craven Cottage and choose those match Night programme from 7 Middlesbrough nil Aston Villa Warne Robert Snodgrass on target for Steve Bruce's side at the Riverside attorney putus 1st game in charge of Middlesbrough and being in disappointing fashion as far as his prize are concerned Sunderland got all 3 points away at Nottingham Forest so a much needed win for Chris Coleman and. Players Aiden McGeady with the only goal of the game in the 45 minute forest nil Sunderland one we will hear from Town boss McCarthy in just a moment who pretty much round off for much say programs for 2017 town one Darby County to an awful match commentry in the Premier League's evening kickoff we've had 25 played at Old Trafford Manchester United nil Southampton Il other results in the top flight today Chelsea up to 2nd although that could just be a temporary stint in 2nd place but they thrashed Stoke by 5 goals Sunil at Stamford Bridge this afternoon at Liverpool came from behind to be less a city to one and field Leicester had 3 Jamie Vardy on 3 minutes most Salah with both of Liverpool's goals in the 2nd half. With 2 Abbots and one both born with goals scored by a former town loan player Ryan Fraser Huddersfield Milburn Lee Neil also goalless and James's Park was in Newcastle Brighton and Vicarage Road cars cover Will what's the 1st game in charge of Swanzy they want to want away at Watford at $21.00 as a mention in favor of the away side an awful match come true with his thoughts on Tam one Darby to see from the management McCarthy He's with Prader-Willi for the final time in 27 save a clearing up against a very good side than are currently in the top 2 this afternoon Wu failure to acquitted themselves that or not well enough in the 1st half we've given to the album to score from a corner kick which is you know we really hope on the night that shouldn't happen so really disappointed in the open till that point the game was just scrappy and you know so we had to go for children again and again and then after that they looked like a wonderful football to mope us to blow. And look at some well up front to cost into the millions and millions and. Tom long as we now go to the 5000000 vigil What was the 9 minutes on boy and Johnny Russell and all that from for so we've got a good front for it and. There really pulls caused us problems. And I had to say the pleasure Well don't forget even one milli was probably the prophecy there wistfulness as much as of but we had some blocks and we had to work out that changed after time the shift of the today and I'll never ever know whether it would have worked because we give a ball away and have in the back of an after 4 minutes but it did work because of that we got on the ball better and busted and at least made them fight for something right until the bitter end as ever the boys kept plugging away and you couldn't except in at the end all said and done that they could have been a side a half times the way it could've gone for you. Absolutely could have been on the 1st one to make a living. But they weren't. And there could have been us on the show the 2nd of the could have gone on and took us apart but the didn't and allies kept going and then made them be found to be fatter than they were to defend it took 2 hours and again because we've put in a lot of balls in the box and go into feed. It we get we give them problems which was positive you never be moaned all of these injuries but how much did you miss kill in that game that's a big hole a big big shoes to fill isn't it Oh of course is. No point more of that because it didn't make any difference there's just they're. Hoping really hoping it will give them over to the be fit for Choose the. You know and then we go Kev Bros being on the list for a long time ago that bucket is ground us feel and choose the palace and he's not a con but he's playing the game so I can't you know knock him until he's been professional has been professional really excellent. But we are. With a lot of players and I think if we go up and tell my dear me Bush and feel my screw sleeve I'll be slightly stronger and tougher than the mirror the last Adam is go so Achilles Devon that's nothing too serious as was early days well the do grumble on. What was said about Fingers crossed it's just good you know to kill it. Because your social miss field is going to be late with so many names the next few weeks Danny Guthrie's name came up yesterday an experienced midfielder as a free agent anything in the club he told me what I felt so many of us give him a call for some it was. Because he would turn away for the final time this year on b.b.c. Radio Suffolk we go again in 2018 with town away from I'm off to match nights on Tuesday January the 2nd wishing goalless knows I'm contributing is a very Happy New Year. Appeals to. The kids to.
