You Feel For Paul Said Telford Manager

Following their 3-0 win over Hereford last night, Telford manager Kevin Wilkin spoke about the problems facing Hereford at present.

"You feel for Paul in those situations," he said.

 "It's easy for me to stand here as a manager who's won the game, and maybe they’re having a little bit of a difficult period of it at the moment. Look, that's unfortunate. They're better than the league position, definitely, and we wish them well in the coming weeks and months. 

"They're a better side than their league position would suggest, and clearly, they've got a whole bundle of games there to go and catch up and play, which is tough for them, but they're not a bad side.

"They're capable; they've made life hard for us. We've had to push and be very focused and concentrated to win the game 

"I don't think we ever looked in any real danger in open play, but certainly, soon after we took the lead, we gave at least three restart moments where they could load the ball on us and get the ball into our penalty area, and that was where, if they were going to score, I think that was where it was going to be: from a restart. 

"They've got some big lads in the side and good delivery, but we stayed focused and concentrated in those moments and saw out the danger, fortunately."
