The Gaffer’s Reflections
A game where we didn’t really get to grips with Axminsters approach.
I thought on occasions we got the ball down and went through the thirds, we looked dangerous but we couldn’t quite put that together enough on Saturday
A few strange decisions went against us but we all need to manage those disappointments better, I think those setbacks affected us
Notwithstanding that, it’s Axminster who are in the hat and deservedly so.
