Er you what?? Possession and territory to Woking in the second half but how many chances and clear attempts on goal.
I listened to his interview which was pretty fair on the whole but he has made himself look a bit silly here. So what if our boys celebrated - does he want them to sit in the changing room and not be excited at a win over a close rival?
It's not acceptable that after a fantastic display of football by two Gladiators of the game that one team should belittle the other one in this fashion. Yes, emotions were running high, but these guys are meant to be professional, they should be able to refrain from such an outburst of childishness. And to add to matters, I'm sure it wouldn't have happened if Mr Day had been present. I am quite confident that had Daisey been at the game the celebrations would have been a little different. Oh yes, not only banging on the walls, not just singing "we are the champions", not just laughing out loudly. Oh no, we would have waited for them to emerge from their dressing room to the sound of party poppers, claxons and Vuvuzelas.
Yes, I am not impressed too.

its nice to have a little bit of niggle as long as it doesnt get silly. Hill is showing how much he cares and how its wound him up, the flip side of that is hes seen it very much in rose tinted glasses and doesnt mention the 3 or 4 good saves howe made, the disallowed goal or the couple of nasty tackles made by his mob. Its feasable we could have been at least 4-1 up but he still thinks it was them battering us, so he loses a bit of respect for his seething.
On chances alone hes correct the ref would have stopped it, but then he would have had no chance of nicking a draw late.
The return should be a good game and you know Hill will be desperate to put wokings first win against us in the last 2 years on the board, if he doesnt, wear a tin hat.

We adpated our game for Woking they failed to adapt theirs for us. It was basically the same team as last year so he should have known the strengths we would play to. Strikes me that it was a managerial failure on his part, probably borne out of the Woking are a big club and only have to turn up to win attitude.
I think what he is doing is great, this thread is discussing Mr Hill, which is exactly what I think he wants us to do. He is deflecting all conversation away from his players. He is a manager and he is trying to keep his team's morale up by taking the flack. It's what I would do, and for that I make him right.
Unimpressed with our players banging on the dressing room walls? Well I'm unimpressed with his team's fans banging on our hoardings behind the goal and knocking them over! MORON!
From all I have read, allegedly Woking are the 'larger' team by virtue of crowd, ground, recent success etc.
I somehow think that they would celebrate a win against AFC Wimbledon, who came from behind them but are now 'bigger'.
So you are either 'big', in which case get used to smaller teams celebrating when they win against you, or you aren't 'big' anymore (if indeed you were in the first place). Either way, GET USED TO IT!
Woking need to realise that at this level, they're only as big as the league they're playing in. They still think theyre a cinference premier team even though this is their 3rd season in the South.

Too true fella. I can understand his passion and have no problem with it at all. In retrospect, we beat them fair and square. They might have a better ground / fan base than us, be we still beat them. Their 'fans' on the other hand are complete tw*ts. Passion I can understand, damage to an oppos ground I can't. They should have been reported to the League.
