Jackett: We deserved to lose

After six successive wins on the road, the Lions surprisingly came unstuck at Huish Park as the Glovers boosted their League One survival hopes with a fine 2-0 win courtesy of goals from Jon Obika and Gavin Tomlin. Manager Jackett conceded that his side, who finished with 10 men following Alan Dunne's 72nd-minute dismissal for two bookable offences, were poor. "Overall it was not a good day," he said. "We didn't defend well, we didn't pass the ball well and most importantly we didn't finish well. "We had two cleared off the line in the first period but we didn't put our chances away. We won a number of first balls in the air but overall we can play a lot better." Defender Dunne was given his marching orders having been shown two yellows for fouls on Andros Townsend, but the Lions boss admitted the referee was left with little choice, saying: "He should have stayed on his feet."
