Ben Harrison played the full 90, it was Ollie Hitchcox who was was replaced in the final substitution.

Played well for most of the game, but lost our shape a bit following the substitutons.

My mom was Ben Harrison, closely followed by Ben Hough. Joe Duckworth would have been a contender too except for his rather needless sending off for two yellow cards.

First half today was the best we’ve performed all season. We were excellent against 74 first half on Boxing Day but today I thought we were better.

Unfortunately Runcorn won very late on and Clitheroe beat Leek. Nothing we can do about that.
Massive game next next week.

MOM either Ben or Jordan.

I was following the game mostly on Football Web Pages and Twitter.

Initially, they did say that Oliver Hitchcox was the one who came off but then they changed it to Ben Harrison.

Yes it’s another must-win and it still might not be enough but we can only take care of our result.

A surprising result today with Workington losing to Widnes so anything’s possible.

Great attacking display from the Albs it could have been 6 at half time!

Despite injuries and suspensions, we can cover really well. The only blot was losing shape after all the subs and conceding 3.

Really entertaining game any neutral would have loved it lots of good performances. MoM Ben. UTA

Only been to two games this season - Runcorn 4-2 & Skem 5-3. Thanks for the abundance of goals and entertainment!
My MOM was the No.7 Ben Hough.

You appear to be our lucky charm GEGEGE, maybe you should come more often or at least when time allows.

Impressive first hour on Saturday, settled ourselves down with an early goal and didn’t give Skem a sniff.

Less said about the last 30 the better - particularly Duckworth’s completely mindless and needless sending off. Really hope that doesn’t come back to cost us.

Big game Saturday, not sure it’s a must win though. It’s the toughest of the four and with the team picking up three points at Leek last week it feels like a bit of a free hit. Win our three home games and I reckon we’ll sneak in. UTA!

Big game Saturday but we’ve performed well against the better teams.

I’ve not seen a team play better football than us this season. People will say Macclesfield, but in the two games against us definitely not.

As Left Pegger said it’s not definitive we win because I think Clitheroe and Linnets have got some tough games.

However I think we’ve got to get a draw Saturday minimum and win the last three.

No matter what it’s been a joy watching us this season.

Big praise to Jon and staff.
