"It was a game we were controlling until the sending off in the first half and it was always going to be a big ask after that. We gave it a good go and it was only in the final minute we lost the deciding goal. The lads couldn't have given any more and it's just disappointing a big decision going against us has cost us.

"he season has surpassed expectations given the transition period we are going through and we will no doubt be stronger for a proper promotion push next season. There's still two game left though and it will be just about giving certain players some game time."
