When Bath City beat Woking in the Play Off Final in May and got promoted to the National Conference, I knew some teams in the new league would give us a real beating.
Up until this weekend, City have more or less matched most teams, picking up a handful of draws, a win and what defeats were suffered, were all closely matched affairs.
AFC Wimbledon were different. Top of the league, strong team, a fantastic fanbase and cash in the bank. I had no complaints over the 4-0 defeat. Sometimes you just have to admit, you were beaten by the better team.
Despite getting thrashed, the trip to Wimbledon was still a great day out. A fantastic club and one I hope finishes the season as champions.
