NIALL McGUINNESS was still trying to work out how officials got two massive decisions wrong in their 2-1 home defeat to Bala Town.

“You can’t legislate for two huge decisions going against you,” said the Flint Town United boss after a sixth loss on the bounce left them in the bottom two.

Flint were 1-0 up through Alex Jones’ effort when the assistant referee flagged Chris Venables’ header had crossed the line despite a flying attempt to keep it out from keeper Aaron Jones.

“It’s not gone in but the goal has changed the direction of the game and when the referee gets a chance to even things out when we should have had a stonewall penalty, he doesn’t give it, “said McGuinness.

“Our lad’s had his shirt took off his back and then he’s been pushed in the back and still he doesn’t give it.

“Hopefully the officials will start giving some decisions our way when football resumes again next month.

“We pick ourselves up, regroup in the break and start afresh

“We’ve been talking about taking our chances and getting ahead in games. We’ve done that and then we’ve had it all taken away.

“We played with a desire and deserved something from the game and we will take plenty of positives because we’ve done well against a team who have just come out of Europe and have top players turning out for them.”

Venables’ equaliser was his tenth goal of the season while ex-Wrexham and Shrewsbury midfielder Steven Leslie curled home the winner.

The victory put Colin Caton’s side just three points behind leaders The New Saints, who will play the only Cymru Premier fixture this weekend at home to Haverfordwest County.

Former Flint and Chester star Nathan Brown has been talking about his move to Airbus

No date has yet been set for the start of the Cymru North season but Brown claimed he had no hesitation in signing for the Broughton-based Wingmakers.

“I’m delighted to sign,” Brown (pictured above) told the Airbus FC club website.

“It’s always a club where I’ve looked at their results.

“It’s a massive club who probably shouldn’t be in the Cymru North in my opinion, but rather in the Welsh Premier with the size of the club and the way it’s ran.

“ I think that’s what made me come here.”

The Premier League must “deliver on its promise” to look at the structure and financing of the English game, Manchester United’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has said.

Woodward admitted that his club had played an “active role” in Project Big Picture plans, which became public knowledge earlier this month but were swiftly rejected by other top-flight clubs.

The plans were criticised for seeking to concentrate too much power in the hands of the Premier League’s so-called big six, but contained provision for an immediate £250million bailout to EFL clubs affected by the coronavirus pandemic and a 25 per cent share for the EFL of future Premier League broadcast revenue.

Woodward said he welcomed the decision of Premier League clubs to work together on a strategy review and said it was something that had to be addressed.

“There will always be intense debate around any changes to the structure of football, just as there was before the formation of the Premier League 28 years ago,” he told investors following the announcement of the club’s 2019-20 financial results.

“Now, at this critical juncture for the game, we must ensure that the huge success of the Premier League is reinforced while ensuring that the wider football pyramid continues to thrive in a rapidly-changing media environment.”
