Thoughts From the Manager - Julian Richens
- There is a really disappointed locker room after that game. We have unfortunately made some individual mistakes that will not get results away from home at this level.
- We need to learn from those mistakes very quickly as the makeup of our schedule has 8 away games in the next nine games.
