Pitman upbeat despite defeat

31 March 2011 10:30
Manager Jamie Pitman acknowledged Accrington`s class as Hereford were undone 4-0 at the Crown Ground but also felt his side were their own worst enemy at times. The defeat leaves the Bulls` position unchanged at the wrong end of League Two - nine points clear of the drop zone albeit with only one game in hand over bottom two Barnet and Stockport. And Pitman still has plenty of faith in his squad to see survival through to the end as the season enters the final furlong. "You have to give credit to Accrington as they played well but individual errors are costing us," he said. "Their third goal was a great strike by the lad and you can't do a lot about that but that has killed the game off at 3-0. Our keeper Adam Bartlett has made a mistake for the fourth but you can't dwell on it as he kept us in the game last weekend with some great saves. "We have to move on and not dwell on this result. We have been under pressure all season and it's no different now. We need to make sure we play better than we have done here, though. I believe I have got a good enough squad."
