You can accuse the team of making some defensive errors yesterday and being too gung-ho and leaving themselves open too much at the back but you could not fault them for effort. They worked their socks off and kept going to the final whistle.
I think the main mistake we made was at the start of the 2nd half when we started charging forward too much and leaving big holes at the back. We should have equalized when we countered from an Oldham set piece and had a 2 on 1. DF just needed to rein in our wing backs for the first 15-20 minutes and make sure we kept the score at 1-0. We then could not clear our lines for Oldham's 2nd goal and then we were always chasing the game which we did pretty well by scoring two goals. Our Plan B also worked with Danny Rose flicking on a long ball to Tyler Walker.
Looking for positives, it was probably our best defeat away from home and I thought we deserved a draw.
