Bath City 0 - St Alban's City 3
Well that was utter shite and the wheels may be coming off our play-off hopes. It was actually worse than our cup exit a couple of weeks ago. We looked toothless everywhere on the field, couldn't string passes together and let St Alban's have free rein through the middle of us for the first two goals. Jerry Gill had a chance to really show his mettle with his half-time talk with us 2-0 down but, if anything, we were worse after the break but St Alban's seemed happy with their 2 goals for a while until they scored their third. Our only chance on goal was actually a St Alban's defender's clearing header that, had it been a foot lower, could have ended up in his own goal. We were at fairly full strength this week so no excuse there. No excuse anywhere really except that this team comprising mainly of young loanees aren't handling a dip in form as well as they handled a long and unbeaten streak. If St Alban's had lost they would have been bottom but, as it was, they were great value for the 3-0 win. I don't normally watch the manger's post match interview but will be watching it tonight.
