    I backed Altrincham at 6-1. Big positive. Knew that price was far too long, bookies clearly hadn't done their homework on us...

    So did I, first time ever I've backed against us, something tells me it won't be the last

    I didn't say they were good but it's 2 more options. 2 players who was key to our team before they got injured

    We weren't exactly flying before they got injured though.

    No but they were the ones who were creating goals and scoring them

    No but when you lose 2 players who have a combined 10 assists and 8ish goals in all competitions, it's visibly clearer that something is missing. We finally started to threaten from set pieces again yesterday as soon as Hourihane came on.

    Two real positives for me

    1. I didn't think about the game once
    2. I saved myself £300 next year

    We were poor with them in the team but not as poor as we are now so they'd improve things.

    Hourihane's our only creator from set pieces & Watkins has been pretty much our only creator from open play so it's definitely a boost to have them back

    So they were 'key' to our still losing side. Ace. Can't wait til they're fully back so we can get back to losing with our key players contributing.

    I'm largely being flippant btw.

    Watkins put some decent balls into the box in the second half shame Connor Wilkinson and Co had no desire to get on end of them.
