Salop went behind just before the hour mark when a Carlisle corner hit Tom Bayliss and went in to give the home side the lead.

Town pushed for an equaliser and despite throwing lots of men forward in the closing stages they could not find one - and Joe Garner added a second in injury time.

The Town boss said he felt there was not too much in the game, and their defending of set-plays was the difference.

He said: " We lost a game of set plays today so I think I should be standing here now saying we'd be pleased with a 0-0 draw because we didn't create a huge amount and I'm disappointed to concede a goal in the way that we did.
