It was always going to be tough against a team of pot hunters.
Put it down to a good experience for the youngsters and push on again.

I hope they go up as I don't fancy going there for the 4th time. They are clearly a good side but we were poor all over and didn't really compete, especially in midfield. I personally thought the subs and tactics were very odd but fair play to Peaksy for admitting it himself. Quite worrying that we've played the bottom 4 already and only 2 of the top 15 but hopefully we can bounce back on Tuesday.

It is interesting how we all see games differently. I thought we competed quite well in the first half. Wreh probably should have scored before they did. Tom on a dry pitch possibly could have had the ball in the net from loose balls and their goalie made a great save. Post their second goal I thought our heads went down a bit and I was frighten of a goal fest. We picked it up enough to keep the score down. To be fair Coalville were good all over the pitch and on that display I can't see them losing many this season. Don't forget they beat Banbury 6.1 the week before

Yeah I felt first half we did a decent job, on another day it could have been 1-1 at HT, but even at 1-0 we were in the game which is all you want away from home at a good team.
Second half we weren’t good enough for the first 20/25 minutes in my opinion. They took their goals well but our defending seemed awful for the 3 in the second half, we definitely seemed to be missing Bully. Last 15 or so we played well and got a decent goal but too late to start playing.
But as has been said they’re a good side so can’t be too disheartened
