Abbott: Defeat is a blow

Carlisle boss Greg Abbott was left deflated and accepted morale among his squad had suffered a significant blow in the 1-0 defeat at Torquay. Eunan O'Kane's sixth-minute strike proved decisive for the League Two outfit, and Abbott said: "Obviously there is a feeling of disappointment. "I have just come from a disappointed dressing room. There's a disappointed following, the crowd that came down with us, disappointed management staff and a disappointed group of players. "We have to deal with that and the next win now becomes even harder to get because the morale in there is low, confidence looks a little bit low, so there's a bit of picking up to do."
