Last Saturday’s heavy home loss to the men from Coatbridge left Warriors boss
Campbell Money obviously bitterly disappointed not only at dropping 3 points but
also at the manner of the defeat. “We didn’t start at all and bitterly
disappointed is a big understatement. We didn’t play at all well from start to
finish but all credit to Albion Rovers, they passed the ball well and played the
game at a high tempo with a great attitude. With this combination, there was
only ever going to be one winner and they deservedly took the 3 points”
A recurring theme this season has been the lack of
consistent performances and Campbell bemoaned another below par effort from the
Warriors. “As I said last week, I thought we had turned the corner against
Berwick where the display at times was as good as we’ve had but last Saturday
simply wasn’t good enough. We’re effectively back to square one and if we turn
in performances of this type then we’ll get deservedly punished. There’s no
doubt that there is quality in the squad but they need to show it week in week
out if we’re to start winning games.”
Adam
Coakley and Darren Henderson made their debuts on Saturday with mixed fortunes
in Campbell’s opinion. “Adam seemed to struggle with the pace of the game; I
don’t think he expected it be as quick following on from his experience in
reserve games. He knows he’ll need to adjust and I’m sure he has the quality to
make a positive contribution over the next few weeks. I was pleased with
Darren’s overall contribution, he competed well and his use of the ball was
relatively good- I appreciate that some people have questioned the signing of a
40 year old but all I would ask is that he’s judged on his performances not his
age.”
