We were not at the Races - Pitman

Jamie Pitman admitted that Hereford United were not at the races this afternoon at Sincil Bank.

"We've been great for the past two months - a little blip," Pitman told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"So, onwards and upwards.

"We were not at the races. Not to the second ball.

"They didn't do what we asked them to do, really all over the place.

Pitman gave a debut to Bryon Webster alongside Mike Townsend in the heart of defence.

"He got better as the game went on.

"It was a tough game to come into - their front four were a handfull."

With a league game at Shrewsbury on Tuesday and the visit of Lincoln City to Edgar Street next Saturday it will be a difficult week for Pitman.

"Hopefully we'll have some of our injured players back. You can't carry the players we've got injured at the moment. Every single one of them brings something different to us.

"Let's hope Bauza will be back. Fingers crossed he's going to be involved on Tuesday".
