I was proud of our efforts today. Magnificent to a man. We defended superbly and deserved at least a pop at a penalty shootout. A valiant effort.

As has been already said, it's football and just wasn't our day. Hard to take but its gone now and we have to look forward.

Our fans were absolutely top draw today. They backed the lads and were stirred by their efforts. What a shame it didn't go our way. We had our big moment when Kitching broke and Luke Thomas found himself in a glorious position and should've shot imo but instead reversed it to Connell who unfortunately couldn't hit the target. That goes in and we win it imo.


I've reflected on the aftermath and how I see it is that the board need to back Michael Duff this summer, and provide him with the necessary ammunition to have another pop at promotion because I think we have a really top draw and level headed head coach in our midst who I truly believe in, and will be successful if given the tools.

Over to Parekh and Co. Big summer this and a statement of our intent and ambition will be reflected in the way that we operate in the transfer market. We have a platform, don't destroy it please
