   Hi Paul and thanks for usual excellent summary.
   Less said the better about yesterday, but guess could have been worse looking at half time score.
   I have only seen the highlights in a 2 minute package and therefore relying on you and BBC site for some more detail.
   Looks like too many individual errors/ poor defending and, as you point out, we really do miss Wintle when he is not there ( as has been proved -sadly – a few times) . Nobody else mops up around the defenders like him. I would also add Ng to that as well. Not sure where they both were yesterday, but hope BBM has worked out our weaknesses ahead of next season as we will undoubtedly get punished severely if not.
   Note you said the new keeper did ok as the Trott situation remains unclear and guess negotiations ongoing now re keeping him and other out of contract players. Fingers crossed as we have been very fortunate to have him this season.
   Sort of glad it’s over now and we can relax and have a “normal” Summer of transfer speculation etc.
   Well done to Newport on their Harry Houdini act and bad luck to Wrexham who will be kicking themselves for not getting to the play-offs. Still another “derby” for us next season so should be interesting. Not to mention some interesting games against whoever drops from the Premier League.
   Massive thanks to you for all your hard work again in keep us all updated on this sight with your perceptive reports, analysis and quizzes! Always a highlight to get your missives each week. Also big thanks to all regular correspondents for providing their entertaining and valuable thoughts too.
