00:00How disappointing was that today?
00:02Very. I thought the message to the players before the game was stay compact, do what we've got to do.
00:10The last two games we've conceded the first 20 minutes. We should have been out one of the games after half an hour.
00:15We were 3-0 down but we came back and won 4-3. The last game we were 3-0 down and there was no way of coming back.
00:21But our slow start has started creeping in. So we said to them today, we can't have a slow start.
00:27We wanted a good start, not to concede, not to be chasing the game and we couldn't argue with that at half-time.
00:32We'd done exactly what we wanted in the first half. We got the goal, we looked a much better side
00:37and then we conceded from a set-piece, which is really disappointing.
00:41It's a poor free kick to give away to start off with. We'd won against the Edelmans in the first half,
00:47against the Wind and we were playing with the Wind in the second half but you somehow let them back into the game.
00:52We did and to be honest, I don't think it was a free kick but even when it's given, you've still got to defend it.
00:57But looking at their record, they've only lost one at home this season. We know it's a hard place to come.
01:02Before the game, we'd win every single game. We're trying to be as positive as we can but we are disappointed today.
01:10Some chances missed today as well. It's disappointing. Some simple chances.
01:16You can't blame anything, not the pitch, nothing. Just head over it and score.
01:20That's the frustrating thing. We took the eight chances and we should have went on and won that game.
01:25Again, it's down to the individual so they'll take responsibility.
01:30How do you look at the second position now? Is it still in our hands?
01:34Yes, at the moment. We've got to play Holyhead last game of the season but we've got work to do before we get there as well.
01:40It's in our hands, it's in their hands at the same time so it might go down to another side on that last game.
01:45It might go, but today it's disappointing.
01:48It's very disappointing but we've got to try and take the positives and pick the lads up and see where we end up.
01:53And we move on. Diolch yn fawr.
