Sums it up for me. They were clinical when they had opportunities. We had plenty. We deserved better than to lose 3-0 but ho hum. Roll on FC.
We missed two sitters in the first half. We gifted them the goals. Not much more to say. The ground is a hole and it was freezing. One of the worst football days of my life ever.
Oh come on Mr Tea Hut, do you not remember those Cheshire Cup Finals against Macclesfield? Or Stafford away last season? Or Swindon Vs Forest? I could go on.
You don’t know, it was hell out there. Swindon and Stafford were like a weekend in Las Vegas compared to today.
Couldn’t agree more with the posts on page 1. Depressing would be a complement. Full credit to the groundsman though the pitch was very good considering the amount of rain that fell. There was a good following from Wittoners who braved the weather and the M6!!!
We cannot go on week after week missing good chances. Get Dave Walker fit (it may take weeks but weeks we really havent got) then we may be OK??? Still GOOD NEWS both Frickley and Stocksbridge both lost yesterday so things didn’t deteriate any… Oh by the way for those who may not know I think Eastwood Town have folded. Don’t know for sure but think so. SBL
