Charscot visited Long Eaton Archers knowing defeat was not an option. However, the team did their best to make sure this happened anyway as a lacklustre performance meant the team lost 2-1.

A double from Ruse gave the hosts the win with Gordillo's superb free kick on 53 minutes the only response from The Wolverines.

The loss dropped the team down to 12th place and puts the pressure on for the upcoming matches.

Manager Rich Grove was very unimpressed. "We have historically done well at The Archers but that performance was just poor and we got what we deserved, nothing. Now we have to get something from our next two matches with Prestatyn and Longfield as any further defeats right now will leave us even deeper in trouble".

After falling short on trying to rebuild the defence to be an old school purely defenders, no shooting, squad, the manager changed tack and came to a deal sending two players that have not impressed him to Real Madrid.

Leaving the club is Cesar Cueto and Alvaro Gines two young tsars who have not quite made the grade.

Arriving in return is Charscot old boy Walter Nausch, who left two seasons ago to embark on his professional career, and midfielder Julio Baptista who has shown flashes of being a goalscorer but has never managed to maintain the scoring over a season.
