"Last weekend was very frustrating, though we did take a lot of positives out of the game and the lads were excellent with lots of good performances, though sadly we just couldn't get the goal, and to have drawn the game would have been an injustice, but to lose it in the last minute was an absolute travesty."

"Those kinds of things happen and we'll play a lot worse than that this year, I'm sure we have done already.You don't always get what you deserve but we did take lots of positives from the game."

"It was still a good performance and an entertaining game of football, that's what I said before the game and that's how both teams set out.I think we can put it down to one of those days, on another day we would have won the game comfortably."

"The dressing room was very quiet and there was a lot of reflection going on and more than anything, shock that we hadn't taken anything out of the game."

"Andy Parrish was spot on by saying that we can't live on hard luck stories, and there's only so much that you can do.There is a way in which you lose a game, and if your going to lose a game, that was the way to do it."

"Training has been very lively this week and the lads all had their Christmas Party so the spirit in the camp is very good at the moment.At the moment, we are just trying to keep that bottled up for Saturday because all the lads are really looking forward to putting in a good performance and a good shift in at Chester."

"I have to thank Lee Bullock for the job that he has done so far for us, whether he returns to us in January is another matter, but he did put in lots of good performances in for us and we wish him well."

"Chester will be the first side that we have already played this season and in the game here earlier in the season, we weren't great at all, but it was one of those games where the keeper had nothing to do and we were undone by a couple of set pieces and lost the game 2-0.They are a big strong team and we will use that last result to put it right."

"There's not much in between the two teams but if we can put in the performances that we saw in the Hereford game, the Peterborough game, the Barnet game and the MK Dons game, then we don't fear anyone.We will go there confident that we can take something out of the game."

"Hopefully Dave Challinor will be fit for Boxing Day, he's stepped his rehab up with Alan Bent, whose done ever so well with him and he's got him back as quickly as possible."

"Andy Mangan has had the operation, and even under the general anaesthetic, they had to wire his lips together.He's a great character in the dressing room and he's always got something to say, but I do know that he was a little bit concerned about the operation.After speaking to him, you get the impression that he's the only person in the world to have gone through a hernia operation.He'll only be a couple of weeks before he's back training."
