Not often would I make the effort to visit a game as I now live in Yorkshire, but as I was in the area, a nice trip to Lewes seemed wise.
First half, Welling much the better team. Two sitters missed, I thought.
Refereeing awful, but no point being victims. That second half, Welling I would personally say got the result they deserved? They sat back, there was no chasing or closing down, there were oodles of warning signs. Silly b***ocks gets himself sent off, and they dont even think of then defending what would be an even more aggressive Lewes attack?
Tough on us today. Deserved a point in my opinion. The big decisions were in a way the easier ones (i.e. red card) but the ref constantly gave free kicks against us when they should have either been for us or play on. Pulled up players for taking three yards on a throw in but allowed free kicks to be taken ten yards from where they were, blew up for players falling over with no one around them then restarted with a free kick to them! There were so many bad decisions it was terrible. I did vent my frustrations at the ref towards the end, and having calmed down and reflected - I would do exactly the same again. Joker
Gutted, but the team spirit looked great.
If we can hang on to our current management team, then I really look forward to 2026.
Ignore the background noise and follow what we have.
