Wing Raiders - How Appropriate (3 - 4)

A very reflective drive home, I think that the prize of winning weighed very heavily on our shoulders today, it was obviously not meant to be. In Wing we have found our Nemesis, how they won that game is beyond me, having said that they demonstrated today the same never say die attitude that we had done for the last eight weeks. We played well in places without ever really finding top gear, we scored three which came as no surprise but we conceded two or three very sloppy goals that were down to our failings rather than Wings footballing prowess. One bad game does not shape a season, we are still very capable of going on another run and putting ourselves right back in the promotion chase. You have days where individuals under perform, it happens and is very much a part of football, we however had departments that appeared to misfire today. Our midfield was strangely subdued, our defense was nervous, we missed two or three very good chances and we let our body language show too much negativity today. All said and done...................pooh happens from time to time, lets dust ourselves down and bounce back next week. For the first time this season I could not motive you into turning our fortunes around, I am very much part of the team and maybe I was not on top of my game today.Enjoy your week,come to training on Saturday with the right attitude and with this result put firmly behind you. A screamer from Mr Ayers, a very unselfish square ball from Harry for Bens second and Callum showed great determination in heading home the third. Never understood this comment from a footballing perspective but today 'we were not at the races'. MOTM today was quite close really, Harry ran his heart out and battled hard today, he was pipped today though by Jack who hardly put a foot wrong..........well done and well deserved.
