Should we fail to make the top 7, it won't be as a result of losing at Wrexham, it'll be the result of losing 4 points at home to the likes of Aldershot and Dover.

Having scored in 15 games and undefeated since Aldershot at home, it was inevitable that we were going to lose sometime soon, and we didn't really deserve anything from this game. Fluke goal from Wrexham in 2nd min didn't put us off our game plan & if we'd have nicked an equaliser in the first half then we might have been able to push on in the second. But Wrexham scored their second round the hour mark with a quick breakaway, the kind of goal we look incapable of scoring, and we just didn't look like coming back from that.
We weren't bad today, just not good enough to compete with the home team. From memory, we've only had maybe one penalty this season, a clear result of not attacking with the ball in the 18yd box, and today we never looked like we were going to score.
Need to get it right next Saturday, can't be going out of both FA cup competitions at the first attempt.

Wrexham are strong contenders for promotion, the jury is still out on us

The one where Eastleigh misplace passes and are frightened to take a shot from the edge of the box, crosses where we were second best to their defenders every time, forwards trying to walk the ball into the goal and the midfield overrun all game long. Apart from the last ten minutes there was absolutely sod all to get excited about yesterday. A bad day at the office. |

Last 10 mins was only because Wrexham knew they had the game won & coulld sit back, knowing they could hit us on the break. |
