After chatting with forum posters after the match, it was suggested I shouldn’t mention our chances of finishing second in any posts I make this evening! I won’t. We can’t finish any lower than fifth!
The fact we were thinking about a 40 point win but ended up conceding 41 just about sums everything up. We were disjointed, out-enthused, out-played and flat throughout.
As Wanderer referenced, has the return of Watson Boas had a negative effect on the squad?
Is the fact we’ve got such long breaks between games been an issue?
Is the fact that we have to rearrange games to avoid playing on the Eco-Power pitch at the end of the football season a contributory factor that leads to a lack of continuity?
Anyway, the good news is that S/O wasn’t able to attend today’s debacle. Three guys sitting near me left just after half-time – when Midlands scored shortly after the restart.
After Dewsbury’s win today, here are the current standings:
Dews: 15, 29, +390
Huns: 14, 22, +243
Work: 14, 20, +168
Dons: 13, 20, +123
Oldh: 14, 19, +208
N Wal: 15, 10, +37
Workington have moved into third after beating Cornwall.
Who fancies predicting the handicap line for next Sunday’s game at Worky, then?
PS. Just seen S/O's post... yeh, you wouldn't have made it past 45 minutes!
