Disappointing Home Defeat

 
A disappointing defeat where we had a lot of posession but no real urgency, determination or creativity.  
   
The first half was a boring affair with us failing to capitalise on a helping wind and slope. The best chance of the first half actually fell to them but a great save from stand in keeper Gareth Pummery kept them out.  
   
Second half we knew it was going to be hard, battling against a strong wind. We fell behind instantly and before we knew it we were 2 down.  
   
It took us this long to notice what we were doing wrong. We then played the ball simply and passed around them for a ten minute spell were we grabbed 2 goals. First Brad Stevens through ball was converted by Craig Jones. Then once again Stevens was the provider as James Riley dispatched from just inside the box.  
   
Just when we thought we were able to win the game, a defensive marking error that has plagued us all year happened again and they won 3-2.  
   
Time to start learning from our mistakes and to stop thinking good football is enough without the hard work and determination.
