Blame for this defeat lies,squarely on thé manager. Every person in the ground could see some legs had gone after 60 minutes yet no changes wére made whilst they made three. Once again we get à good gate and blow it

I cant see how you can blame the manager?..he wasnt’ at the game!
We played ok first half and rightly edged it 1-0, second half Warrington upped their game and we sat way to deep and they just about deserved the 3 points ! Big difference is they can bring on a sub who scores 2 and we can only bring on Micah Evans !!! young dale showed his lack of experience losing possession to easily and giving silly fouls away in the second half which cost us. With a full/fit squad we can easily match the likes of Warrington IMO.

So whoever was in charge was to blâme. Good managers react to situations, great ones act before à situation develops, ours did neither.

I agree it needed a change earlier but we did not have the right players on the bench given all our injuries, the only One I would have contemplated was Mckenna on for Dale after about an hour.
I thought we created a great opportunity to get something from today with our very good first half performance, we just about deserved to go in leading at half time. Throughout the second half we seemed to be just trying to hang on to that one nil lead, whether Warrington changed something or we just backed off goodness knows. We certainly played much deeper, had everyone back for their corners, free kicks and throw ins and really didn’t have any attacking options. A draw would have been good after they equalised but we didn’t quite hang on for that. We can certainly compete with the very best in this league so despite the huge disappointment today we mustn’t loose faith COME ON THE ALBIOOON!
It was a game of two halves. If we’d got another when one up we probably would have gone on to win it and we didn’t deserve a loss. Great to see us competing against the top clubs in the league and smiles on Wittoners faces today.

Incredibly proud of our club and where we are. Carl Macauley has done an incredible job for our club with little resource, Warrington have a budget two or three times what we do and we were very unlucky to lose the game. It was one of those days get over it. UTA
Awful posts WHS !! You blurt some shit on here sometimes you really do !! How do you know what’s available and who’s available to change things ? Do you want to sit in the bench and make these decisions ? Because if you were we would still be in the NPL north !!! Where are you at Rushden ? rugby ? Romulus ? And market Drayton and Kidsgrove or a Wet midweek at Stocksbridge last season , hard battles . This season we are holding our own , more than in fact Instead of your negatives look at the positives and stop fcxking whinging !! Get behind the players !! .
