The Boys Are Disappointed - Johnson

Last updated : 19 August 2012 By Covsupport News Service.

Yeovil Town boss Gary Johnson said that his players were disappointed not to have beaten Coventry City on Saturday.

Speaking to BBC Bristol reporter Richard Hoskin, Johnson said: "I think it's early yet to say that we were the better team, or that we weren't the better team. I think we did enough to create enough opportunities to have won the game. They also created their opportunities. But the fact that we're saying that it could almost be two points lost against a club like Coventry is obviously meaning that us as a club are getting further forward. The boys are disappointed - I'll tell you that. I didn't help them with that, either. I didn't necessarily try to pick them up, because I felt that our standards weren't quite there, for what we need if we're going to be in the top half competing. But it was there on occasions.

"I'm pleased with the workrate in the heat, as it was unbelievable out there. We had enough good play, but it was our final ball. We just didn't quite get that last ball to create the opportunity from the amount of opportunities that we had to play that final ball in. We didn't quite find our forwards or a goal. So I was a bit disappointed with that, but the lads know that we've got to raise it a little bit, and that we go into the next game knowing that you've got to hang on in there if you're going to get a result."
