Liam Watson frustrated by AFC Telford loss
Frustrated AFC Telford United manager Liam Watson warned that his side must cut out costly individual errors following their 2-0 defeat at Lincoln City.
The Bucks, who remain bottom of the Conference Premier, emerged with nothing from a tight game.
It came after a rash tackle by Mike Phenix and a goalkeeping error from Jonathan Hedge handed the Imps two soft goals.
And he said: "I wouldn't say there was anything in the game. I know they had quite a lot of set plays but I thought we dealt with them comfortably enough.
"And, then in the second-half, we had probably our best spell in the game where we looked lively and Sam Smith has had a good shot.
"Their keeper made a couple of good saves, Sean Clancy's had a volley which went over and we looked like we had got up a head of steam.
"And then what you witnessed was the most ludicrous decision you have ever seen in your life by Mike Phenix.
"Why anyone in their right mind would go lunging in like he did, especially when Andy Parry was coming across on the cover, I don't know.
"You are talking about a midfielder who was in an area on his wrong foot with nowhere to go and he just brought him down.
"And then, after that, you could physically see the heads drop.
"Then Jonathan Hedge has decided that he is coming for something that is in no-man's land and it was a shocking goal, their second.
"It makes it look like a reasonably comfortable home win when for me it wasn't.
"We have changed to go to a system where we are going to be hard to beat and the big issue is that we need to get the first goal.
"And we had one or two decent half chances to get the first goal, which hasn't happened, but I supposed after 60-70 minutes you'd probably have said 0-0 was a fair result.
"At the end, was 2-0 a fair result? Them winning the game was a fair result, purely because of daft decisions we have made.
"All the players on the pitch worked hard, they all grafted, but again we can't keep hiding away from the facts.
"These are games where we should come away saying 'we haven't been great, they haven't been great but let's take 0-0 and go home.'
"We certainly did that at Kidderminster last weekend (grinding out a 1-1 draw) but we put in a good performance against Forest Green on Tuesday.
"Again we did at Lincoln for 70 minutes, but we have come away with no points."
