Gowens praises contribution of Reserves

Andy Gowens was pleased with the efforts of his young squad and acknowledged the part played in recent games by the reserves team. “We did really well, I had fears before the game with such a young team and limited numbers and with more injuries and Liam Brooks unavailable. They stuck at it did really well and played some great stuff; the youngsters showed what they can do. Yes it was an end of season game but they created loads of chances. It was even-stevens at half time, it could have been 3-3. We created lots of chances in the second half but it’s cruel, we switched off for a matter of seconds and they make it 2-1 and it’s hard to get back from there.”
“3-1 doesn’t really paint the right picture of the game. We got off to a bad start but then I can’t fault them really today, they did really well, as most of them have since we came in. It’s great thanks to Neil Cooper & Gav Hattrick for allowing us to bring the youngsters through from the Reserves and long may that happen. That’s a good relationship that’s hopefully going to continue.”
