Didn't it also happen in the World Cup once? Clive Thomas again?

Or has my memory become Trigger-like?
Clive Thomas did the same to us in a match at Torquay - so what goes around, comes around.

Think that ref was probably a Womble tbh. They are rare but we do come across them every now and then.

We argue over that incident. I reckon with the laws as they are you blow when time is up, not one second before or one after but most disagree with me. I'd support a change that you play until there is a stoppage - out of play, foul or even goal.

Hash - rings a bell. Do you recall which Accy match - there have been a few at KM?

I remember their manager was somewhat displeased!
It was Accy, they weren't happy about it and we ended up knocking them out of the playoffs later that season.

Although it seems anything I remember should be thoroughly fact checked from now on.
DO i think that was Accy and he blew the whistle with the ball literally in the air on its way to the back of the net

Which was the match at KM where the ref blew for HT just before ball crossed line for what would have been a goal to our oppo?

Trigger, you mean their apparent 8,500 undersized ground

running before they can walk, we know how that ends...
REPD, you say it was Midsons penalty that kept us up, I would say it was an Isle of Wight Ref "doing the right thing..." that did it.

His old man followed orders and let the wombles score five against his team ;-)
It's so weird, Meadow - if anyone had asked me to recant the history of AFCW I'd have definitely had that last-day survival against Fleetwood as our first season back in the league - would have even included the actual opener 2-3 defeat by Bristol Rovers from 2011/2012 but then my brain seems to have combined that with the ending of the 2012/2013 season as you say.

The fans want Maynard back and blame the board for his departure so probably would have booed Klopp if he had taken over.

You never what’s going on behind the scenes at a club but from a few reports I’ve read/heard their owners are difficult people.

Shame as I like York City as a club - although haven’t been to their new identikit retail park ground.
What a coincidence. When we got back in the league we played and lost to Crawley in a League Cup preliminary game because of the impact of English teams in Europe that season, followed by playing Bristol Rovers in our first league game. Guess who York play next after losing to Crawley?

Why sack a manager who reached the League 2 play offs (with Notts County) and then promoted out of the National League the next season before a ball has even been kicked, to replace him with a serial loser like that was sacked by his previous 2 clubs because he wasn't good enough for the league York are about to play it. Very odd. Mind you, sacking their previous manager for losing in the play offs the season before was equally strange. I like York but they deserve what is coming to them.
Well slap my thigh and call me Deborah that first season back in the league I would have been virtually ever present and can’t remember it 😆

TF - TB left around September in our second season. NA took over, and it was at the end of that where Midson's penalty saved our EFL status

Feels long ago though, admittedly. Probably because it was about 13 years ago.

That’s odd Rob I would have sworn that TB left in our first season back in the League and it was Ardley who kept us up on the last day v Fleetwood. It’s getting longer ago so no idea whether that’s my memory going askew or not.

Trigger- that was York’s first proper match, as there are League Cup qualifiers this season (too many Prem teams in Europe).

We had to play Crawley in one of these not long after getting in to the League.
Football management and UK politics - almost every career ends in failure. A few exceptions - Alex Ferguson, Tony Blair. Even Alf Ramsey and Maggie T were 'let go'!

TF - in TB's case, it was knowing what he'd done for us as far back as the Ryman Premier, although you didn't need hindsight to know he should have left after the end of that first EFL season.

While it's not perfect at AFCW these days for so many reasons, at least on the field we're not nearly driven so much by sentiment and emotion, which clouded our judgement
Fully agree with that Rob re TB and I think that was shown by the reaction when he left us. Genuine sadness across the fanbase and I'm so glad he's been welcomed back even the very next game but ever since as well.
