Josh Sims said the 1-0 defeat at Tamworth was ‘disappointing’ and it was a tough result to take.
The midfielder spoke to BBC Somerset’s Josh Perkins after the defeat saying: “It was a tough, tough old match. Disappointing result in the end, to be honest, I think you know the way we played in the end, we can’t just hang on for a 0-0 like that. We defended really well as a team for virtually the whole game. So things like that are always going to drop in. You can’t defend like that for 90 minutes, unfortunately. But, yeah, disappointing result.”

Sims gave credit to Tamworth and their long throw. “Tamworth are good at what they do. Obviously, they’ve got the long throw, they just put pressure in the box, put numbers in there, and then that’s how they get their goal. So it was nothing that we weren’t expecting. It’s just disappointing that we gave him so many opportunities to do it, whether that was corners, crosses, you know, long throws and that kind of thing. So, yeah, really tough, tough one to take in the end.”
With Danny Webb completing his first full week as manager, Sims said training had been positive, but had an eye on the trip to Aldershot on Wednesday.
“It’s been really positive. You know, it’s been a good training week, but we’re just saying in there, it’s all good doing it in training. I know this is where it matters, the 90 minutes on a Saturday. So listen, we’ve got to go again on Wednesday. We’ve got another tough, tough match. So, yeah, we go again.”
