Did ok first half against a lively Prescot honours pretty even at 1-1, Albion didnt really turn up at the start of the second half went 2-1 down then subs and changes left me a bit stunned, Titch off and we went one up front at 2-1 down ? then Danny off ! not playing too well I know but our top scorer and we need goals ! and then the lively Menagh on the left wing moved into the middle where he barely touched the ball very odd decisions and the players looked lost to me , the 2 new midfield players were ok in parts but both overplayed and gave the ball away too cheaply, only good part of today was the new keeper had a good game no fault for the goals-that was really down to poor defending. My summary, we still need a target striker, probably 2 midfielders, a dominant centre back and a left back - no reflection on Dawse who played his heart out. We are just too lightweight and get bullied a very disappointing day
PS if we do get players in then PLEASE not young loan players its not what we need right now to get us out of trouble.

C.J. a lively Prescott !
I think that probably sums up the football team at the moment, just looking at results that is.
As for WAFC Ltd as a whole, people still ask me what is going on,
I haven’t a clue but I have a pretty good idea
I really don’t think WAFC are going to survive without great change.
OK it’s probably fk all to do with me as I am now just a shareholder
I still look for the result, dream about the football club and feel like I have lost a close relative.
But life moves on and I wish the best to the good people at the club,
the rest well I hope what they get is what they deserve
