How has the thread descended into this?
Taking nothing away from Workington who were the best side we have faced so far, but we beat ourselves last night. After Harrop's superb equaliser we were in the ascendancy, an incredibly soft penalty and red card within two minutes gave us a pretty grim task in even worse condidtions. That rain was unreal.
We showed some of the fight and stomach that won us a point at Nantwich, but Workington were clinical in the second half and punished us when we immediately pushed on for another after equalising. That was a bit naive. Players were acknowledged at full time for their efforts - we know this is a work in progress. The lack of patience from some posters who weren't even at the game isn't even surprising on here anymore. It's a good job they aren't given a virtual full time reception via the forum, and all of this is coming from someone who gave the lads stick against Stafford.
Saving grace is not many sides around us come the end of the season will pick up points there either. No side is going to run away with this league and we can afford a couple of these results provided we defeat the fodder. Farsley game is huge.
