Wadley's Verdict: Stevenage 0 Cherries 1
11:26pm Tuesday 12th March 2013 in Sport
By Ian Wadley
BACK ON TRACK: Eddie Howe salutes the travelling fans
BRETT Pitman converted a first-half penalty as Cherries got their promotion push back on track tonight amid angry late scenes at Broadhall Way.
The Cherries frontman struck the winner on 38 minutes after Stevenage keeper Steve Arnold had controversially been deemed to have felled Eunan O’Kane.
Cherries looked comfortable against a poor Boro outfit despite twice being forced into reshuffles as they lost both Matt Ritchie and his replacement Ryan Fraser to injury.
Stevenage never really looked like seriously testing Cherries stopper Ryan Allsop as Eddie Howe’s men successfully ended their five-match losing streak.
In a dramatic finale out of character with the uneventful clash, Boro defender Darius Charles was sent off after receiving a second yellow following a challenge on midfielder Harry Arter.
The clash sparked furious confrontations on the pitch and touchline and resulted in Arter becoming the third Cherries player forced off with injury.
Cherries’ victory appeared to have come at a heavy cost as the midfielder departed on a stretcher but boss Howe later confirmed that Arter’s leg injury was not as bad as first feared, while Fraser had sustained a knock and Ritchie a gashed head.
Howe, bidding to end Cherries’ run of losses, had recalled Arter following his two-match ban and he also drafted in Wes Fogden, with Shaun MacDonald and Josh McQuoid named on the bench.
Stevenage, on the back of 12 defeats in their past 15 matches, started well enough and Lucas Akins almost caught Cherries cold on a bitter evening as he lashed a long-range strike narrowly wide.
But as the match wore on, Boro looked devoid of confidence for long periods as Cherries, particularly in the opening 45 minutes, displayed a calmness which belied their recent record.
The Dorset outfit should have found themselves in front in the 16th minute. When O’Kane flicked a Ritchie ball into Pitman’s path, Cherries’ mercurial frontman showed excellent vision to send Lewis Grabban clear. But after taking time to compose himself, the club’s leading scorer shot too close to Arnold who blocked with his outstretched left leg.
While Stevenage offered little going forward, Cherries dictated possession without carving out a host of clear-cut opportunities.
Ritchie tested Arnold from range as he unleashed a powerful 20-yarder following Pitman’s quick free-kick.
However, that proved to be the former Swindon star’s last act as he was substituted after a nasty clash of heads with Miguel Comminges.
Already without first-choice left-back Charlie Daniels, Cherries had to reshuffle with Fogden deputising and teenage winger Fraser introduced on the right wing.
Despite the change, the visitors took a deserved lead on 38 min utes, albeit in controversial circumstances. Referee Lee Collins felt the wrath of the home faithful when he opted to point to the spot after the charging O’Kane had been felled by Arnold after chipping a shot over the onrushing keeper.
After lengthy protests, cool customer Pitman calmly slotted home as Arnold committed himself far too early.
Greg Tansey, doing his best Jonny Wilkinson impression as he lined up a free-kick, fired straight at Allsop as out-of-form Stevenage struggled before the interval.
Boro began the second half at a higher tempo and immediately attempted to force Cherries on to the back foot.
And Cherries were grateful to Steve Cook for keeping them in front as the stand-in skipper produced a fine clearance off the line after Akins had headed a Tansey free-kick towards goal.
Tansey and Luke Freeman failed to find the target from range as Boro continued to press for a leveller.
Cherries boss Howe was again required to juggle his resources when Fraser limped off 20 minutes into the second half. Richard Hughes was tasked with utilising his vast experience by shielding the back four, with Grabban moving to the right and Pitman leading the line on his own.
While also providing some welcome touches of class, Pitman set the tone from the front with his work-rate and hold-up play.
Happy to soak up pressure with Stevenage offering very little, Cherries were rock-solid in defence with Fogden particularly impressive in his unfamiliar role.
Grabban fired wide from 20 yards before Charles was dismissed for his part in the late flashpoint. Pitman was booked for his reaction to the incident as Arter was carried off.
However, Cherries managed to coolly play out time without any major scares to end their winless run and enhance their promotion prospects.

I turned down the volume on the TV as I watched Barca V AC Milan and listened to Radio Solent's commentary, the weirdest of experience I must say!!
I do not wish to dampen our joy for winning but not sooner the Commentator said Grabban is on the ball he said Grabban has just lost possession or he has hit the ball wide or misplaced his pass etc. Give Tubbs a go and rest Grabban for a game or two. UTCIAD

Doesn't matter how we win now just keep picking up points.
Maybe Fogden is the answer at left back? He gives 110 percent every game.
First to post on Saturday but now nothing from Shim-onto? Troll status proven!

There's still a long way to go, and there will be plenty more surprises yet. Lots of fixtures involving 2 of the sides in the mix with us, so they will all drop points, but it is a bit worrying about the shortage of goals.

Shame about our injuries, but hopefully not too bad.
How do match officials justify their presence when teams behave like Boro did last night?

A great result. Keeps us in the mix. Shame about Ritchie and Arter. I hope they are both back on Saturday. I know some people on here criticise Arter, but I like the fact that he and Ritchie are both prepared to shoot from a distance. It can pay off. Good to see that Brett put in a shift. Maybe some people on here will get off his back now. Roll on Saturday and another 3 points to keep the momentum going.

Could not post last night as I was trying to get past the idiots fighting at the Mansfield v Grimsby game. Had to go there to run the rule over a centre half, who keeps blowing hot and cold though.

A welcome three points last night and only an idiot would imply otherwise. So well done to side and for their efforts. Thank God !!

However, we should put things into perspective, we once have again failed to score from open play against poor opposition.

But three points is three points so we should be grateful.

Just worried about the injuries last night and wondering what sort of side we will put out at Oldham on Saturday. They will be fighting for their lives. So we need everybody fit or we will cop it.

However we played a very poor side and we scored from a penalty Only!
Grabban was Again very poor and yet is still playing?
No one has come in on loan when its obvious we are lacking up front!
I really hope I am wrong but something isnt right at the club at the moment.
The ambition seems to have being replaced by saving money.
We might limp into the play offs but ..................

I was at the game supporting the team last night - great away following. 'Boro were very poor and we dominated the game, especially first half. I actually thought both Grabs and Pitman put in a shift and we could have scored a hatful of goals in the last 2 games - at least we're creating chances.

He claimed he couldn't post a message due to a 'fight' between Mansfield and Grimsby fans yet when we lost a couple of weeks ago he was pretty quick in posting a 'gloating' message from Northampton. Pathetic.
Prior to the match last night, I had hoped for 3 things; 3 points, a clean sheet and for us to score more than 1 goal. Well, I guess 2 out of 3 ain't bad!!
Up the Cherries!!

Well done to the lads for the three points gained last night agreed shim into your silence is deafening you have been quick enough to GLOAT recently when the team have lost and proved your predictions right yet you don't have the decency to congratulate the team when they win ,24 points to play for and having looked at the league table I m of the opinion the final positions will not be decided until the very last match of the season
.
Could not post last night as I was trying to get past the idiots fighting at the Mansfield v Grimsby game. Had to go there to run the rule over a centre half, who keeps blowing hot and cold though.
.
A welcome three points last night and only an idiot would imply otherwise. So well done to side and for their efforts. Thank God !!
.
However, we should put things into perspective, we once have again failed to score from open play against poor opposition.
.
But three points is three points so we should be grateful.
.
Just worried about the injuries last night and wondering what sort of side we will put out at Oldham on Saturday. They will be fighting for their lives. So we need everybody fit or we will cop it.
.
Regards
.
Season over.
.
Everybody around us has won.
.
I refer you all to my posts on Thursday and Friday.
.
Serves you all right to those who argued with me..
.
My thanks to you who along with me saw the light.
.
Next season is now our only hope.
.
Regards to all
Mmmgh you where like a rat up a drain pipe to ensure you got this comment in the second we lost weren't you,if this is not gloating then what is
season over my backside with 24 points still to play for it does not take the brains of an archbishop to work out that mathematically we could still get automatic promotion if not promoted as champions so until it is mathematically impossible I will remain positive
REGARDS !!!!!!!!
