Accrington manager John Coleman bemoaned the amount of decisions that went against his side after the 1-1 draw Aldershot. Rory Boulding put Stanley ahead in the first half before Darren Jones replied for the Shots seven minutes after the interval. Coleman said: "I fell out of love with football after this game. I know it's easy to moan about and it's something I've tried to avoid all season but the amount of decisions that went against us defied belief. "When you work hard all week on your pattern of play and formation and players fitness and they stick to it to the letter of the law and then people outside your influence don't do their job it's hard to take. "Without being controversial you shouldn't have so many decisions go against you. So many unjust decisions shouldn't go against you. They've got a player who's injured three of our players and he hasn't even been spoken to. It defied belief. "But I know sometimes you can be `oh woe is me' and you can feel sorry for yourself and blame everybody but yourself.We'll take the blame for the goal we conceded - we didn't think it was a foul but we haven't defended the free-kick into our box."
