Despite the defeat, we actually climb one place to sixth due to Shaw Lane 's thrashing at Altrincham.

We were poor individually tonight and the manager had a bad day at the office how can you drop River Humphries for Steve Ryan when the former has been superb in partnership with Wilson and I am not sure Will Jones deserves a guaranteed place either He is just not fit ! so accommodating Him in A 4-3-3 left us weak in midfield and leaving Mckenna out we missed his pace and energy, disappointing night all round but did we even want the playoffs ?
