I suppose one of the first things we're taught in Sunday League is not to let the ball bounce - even more so on a pitch like that. Lewis Baines seems superhuman sometimes, but it was almost as if he took his cape off between 45-60 and that affected everyone else too. But the poor lad can't do it all on his own.
At the top end of the pitch, stating the bleeding obvious but you just need those Newby / Conn-Clarke set pieces to hit the target really. I think deep down we all started to think it might not be our day when we couldn't quite make the most of the backpass freekick.
As others have stated, available players will be knocking on the door to join us now, and IF we accept a bid for any of our players (thankfully I think the vast majority are now under contract) that'll give us the extra 10% to offer on wages which will potentially make a crucial difference if used across 2-3 different starting positions.
I don't begrudge the management team having a rest, but I'm sure they'll be itching to get going.
See you all in pre-season
