Simpson Disappointed With Defeat At Hereford


Lincoln's Jordan Tries To Stop Dan Walker's Run
Lincoln City manager Gary Simpson told the press that he and his players were disappointed to have lost at Hereford last night given he felt they had worked hard.

“The players are very disappointed because they worked hard tonight,” said Simpson.

“Hereford had their tails up, but in the first half we completely dominated the game.

“We know we have to work the keeper more, we know that, but we’ve got what we’ve got. 

“They were more direct in terms of putting it in there and we had to try and battle with them to win the headers. That’s their style of football.

“We have tried to get it down and tried to play. I’m not saying which is right and which is wrong, but at the end of the day they got the one goal, the ball dropped, they’ve hit it and it’s gone in, so good luck to them.”

Simpson also admitted that he took striker Ben Tomlinson off as he was concerned that he might get sent off: “We were conscious for Ben Tomlinson because he had been booked and he is the last person I wanted to be sent off, so we took him off as well."
