Uphill Task after Two Goals says O's Boss

Leyton Orient manager Geraint Williams made these comments after yesterday's game at Edgar Street which the Bulls won 2-1.

"We were disappointed with the start we made," said the O's boss.

"We spoke about the need for a bright start, and it looked as if we were going to have one when we had the shot cleared off the line early on.

"But going two behind in the first 15 minutes gave us an uphill task and it proved just beyond us in the 90 minutes.

"To be fair to Febian Brandy, it was a fantastic turn, swivel and shot for the first goal.

"I didn't think he was going anywhere for the penalty decision.  It was a wrap up of legs and could be accidental, but the referee said he was goalside and gave the penalty.  We have to live with that.

"We had three or four very good chances in the second half. The keeper's made a couple of good saves and we've missed the target too.

"I thought the players were magnificent second half, but we gave ourselves too much to do with that start."
