Well despite a decent performance the Deano revolution stuttered a bit yesterday with a defeat at Kidderminster. In my view the two sides on show at Aggborough yesterday will be there or thereabouts in the promotion shake up as although Kiddy won the game Wrexham had more than enough chances to have taken the points back to North Wales. From the way the home side celebrated their victory I suspect they felt the same way and with three strikes of the woodwork and at least two fantastic saves from a quality keeper any of which on another day could have gone in, I think Wrexham will play worse than this and win games, whilst if Kiddy can keep their main players fit they will certainly test most teams in this league. My only concern for them is do they have the strength in depth in their squad. On a slightly different topic the cottage pie and famous Aggborough soup is certainly well above the normal fayre you find on football grounds and certainly went down well with the members of the press box. I had an interesting conversation with Peter Bodak, the ex Coventry and Swansea player, who was working for PA sports reminiscing about the days when we used to play in the Welsh cup and qualify for Europe. So in summary apart from the result we had a decent performance, excellent food and some good company to make the trip a good one, the only thing missing was a goal and some points.
