“I just didn’t think we were good enough,” the Diamonds boss told AFCRD TV.
“Don’t get me wrong, we had loads of possession and the goalkeeper has pulled off four or five good saves.
“But it was a very frustrating afternoon and I am gutted.
“The goal was a blow. Luke (Massingham) went down and we should have put the ball out but we didn’t and Luke was injured and he came off.

“But we got some of the basics wrong and, as a manager, it stops with me. I thought the performance was poor, we lacked quality.
“I feel like we have some good youngsters who are at the beginning of their journey but I found it really frustrating this time.
“I feel sapped of energy and I am gutted. I have a bit of thinking to do.

“I just thought it was flat. I thought we were further ahead than we are.
“The first person I always question is me. I didn’t enjoy it today.”
Diamonds are back in league action on Tuesday when they host Bedworth United.
