Manager Martin Ling was quoted afterwards as saying: "Basic defending and passing let us down. I didn't think that 2-0 was a fair reflection of the first half, but the second half was shambolic. We made Darren Anderton look like the Darren Anderton who played for England 10 years ago. It should remind us that we're not as good as we think we are. It's a 10-goal swing to them - they get plus five and we get minus five. At the start of the day, I didn't think it was humanly possible for them to go above us. In the first 15 games of the season, we were nowhere near good enough, but for the next 15 we've been more than good enough to get out of trouble. But this was like we were back to our old selves. There's still a lot of hard work to be done".
