Manager Paul Groves was quoted on the Clubs Official Web Site as saying on the draw that: "I can’t disguise the fact that we are all really disappointed because it was a game that we should have won.  We were in front and they were down to ten men and the least you look to come away with is a 1-0 win, and that’s where the massive disappointment is. We pinned them back in the first half and even before the sending off, we were the ones in the ascendency.  We always looked like the ones likely to score, but you always have to be mindful of them counter attacking. The game was going our way and we didn’t press home the advantage and in this league, you can’t afford to do that".
