Coventry Are In A False Position - Holden

Oldham Athletic manager Dean Holden has said that Coventry City are in a false position.

Speaking about last night's game to the Press Association, Holden said: "Coventry move the ball so well and it can be difficult to contain them. We changed it round a couple of times but I don't think they affected our goalkeeper too many times in the second half for all the play they had.

"We defended absolutely everything apart from the one at the end - that's the first header we lost in the box all night.

"In the second half they went longer and got a lot of balls in our box. We maybe could have got up to the ball a bit quicker and stopped the ball coming into the box but they were doing it very quickly.

"But they are a good team. They are in a false position, there are no two ways about it. If they are in this league this season and they can build, they will be a force because they have some good players.

"That said, it was clearly a foul just before the goal. He has to go through our player to get the ball and the referee has got it wrong. He hasn't done it on purpose but that is two in the space of four days that have gone against us."
