and live on Freeview channel 276
Speaking to Warriors TV, he said of the 2-0 result: “To a man, we were excellent. “The gaffer was keen on us keeping our shape and we really did that on the night.
"I’ve not played in a couple of games but I felt I did well.

"It felt like season before scoring with a couple of chances being missed and despite us dominating the match, we were still level.
"I suppose if we weren’t creating them, it would be a bigger problem.”
He added the introduction of last season’s club top goalscorer, Tam Orr, helped the Warriors find the opening goal on the night.

Hide AdO’Reilly slotted home his first on the rebound after the goalkeeper made a stunning stop to deny Orr.
"Tam coming on was great,” he said. “Last season, his numbers were scary and he is a brilliant goalscorer.
"Matty (Yates) and Tam put in a shift up front and they did the hard graft.”
The winger also thinks he could have had another goal, with a strike in-between his two goals being called narrowly offside by the linesman.
He added: "It could have been three for me. I don’t know what I would have done with myself if I scored a hat-trick. I must have been only a yard offside.”
