We spoke about things as a group and trained well in between that game against Holywell and Llay.\u00a0I was obviously disappointed to lose that game [against Holywell] but on reflection, the performance was strong and it shouldn\u2019t upset our momentum.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus\u2019 only other league defeat this season came in their previous meeting with Colwyn Bay.
