Gray bemoans mad minute

26 Mar 2007 - 10:56:04

Northampton Town manager Stuart Gray blamed two lapses in concentration for his side's 2-1 defeat at Swansea City.

The Cobblers took the lead in the sixth minute thanks to a brilliant Brad Johnson free-kick, but goals either side of half-time consigned the Cobblers to their 15th defeat of the campaign.

"Having gone one up thanks to a wonder goal from Brad Johnson I'd have hoped we could have held on," said Gray.

"Our defensive record away from home this season has been excellent, but we gave away two sloppy goals and from there we were always chasing the game.

"It was a mad minute that lost the game for us. If we'd held our concentration for the 30 seconds either side of half-time we could have come away with something.

"We have under-performed against the bigger teams like Swansea this season and that's been one of the most disappointing things.

"There are 21 points still available and I have to make sure we get as many as possible."
