While Saltash remain on course for an excellent fourth place finish on their return to the Western League, you get the impression Millbrook can’t wait for the campaign to finish.
Saltash manager Dane Bunney summed it up when he said it was not a game for the purist but he felt his side had done enough to deserve the win, especially in the second half.
“Saltash had quite a lot of possession and both teams probably thought they were in control of the game but just in different ways. We were content with them having the ball in areas where they didn’t hurt us and Chris (Wearing) didn’t have a save to make in the first half, whereas we had a glorious chance with Knighty (Ryan Knight) one on one and he knows he should have done better.”
Brown revealed that at half-time the team were pleased with the defensive side of their game but he demanded more quality with the ball.
“You work so hard to be broken down and with the game lacking any intensity and tempo, i didn’t see a breakthrough. You somewhat accept it if it is a moment of magic and whilst it was a well worked throw-in routine from Saltash, we were caught flat-footed in the six yard box and should just clear our lines.”
“I’d also like congratulate Westy, Charlie, James and the players at Falmouth Town for wrapping up the Peninsula West Division after a great season, they’ll be a great addition to the Western League.”
