MATCH QUOTES

“Continual stoppages affected the rhythm of play and stopped the lads from concentrating. "Don't forget we are carrying four players, Andy Gray, Brian Little, Alex Cropley and Frank Carrodus who are still getting over injuries. "And John Gidman is still out but I am hoping that he will he available next Saturday." Ron Saunders.
