Tie is finely balanced says Turner

Graham Turner admits in his Hereford Times weekly column that the tie is finely balanced and that his side could play better tomorrow.

"We didn't pass the ball as well as we can. It might have been the occasion, with players not wanting to make a mistake, but I would certainly have liked us get the ball down and passed it a little more.

"The tie is now finely balanced. We know what their attributes are, we beleive that they cannot do anything different. And we can play better."

Turner has prepared his side for penalties just in case. He has competent penalty takers as was shown in the LDV games. However there is the hope that, with the backing of the fans, the Bulls won't need to go to the penalty stage.

"The atmosphere at Stevenage was terrific and there is no doubt that the fans can play a big part in the way we perform. Players make mistakes during a game and the younger ones, in particular, need encouragement to get over those mistakes.

"Getting to the play-offs is a massive occasion for us. It's what supporting a football club is all about."
