Mark Byrne: We’ve been working on our finishing lately

Posted on: Mon 15 Mar 2010

We talked to Mark Byrne after the 8-0 victory over Gateshead.

Good result today, I don't think we performed well enough in the first half but we got a good talking to at half time and performed really well in the second half.

What would you say was not right about the first half then?

I think it was the passing and we were rushing things, we knew we were going to get time on the ball with the space we had but we just forced the team more than the others.

It came right off in the second half, the finishing was amazing.

Yeah the finishing was actually good today, we've been working on our finishing lately in training, Faz came on and scored a great goal.

They were all really good goals and good teamwork as well.

Yeah it was good teamwork, we have a great spirit here and it was really good finishing.

Difficult to remember all of them, but talk us through your own finish, nice to get on the scoresheet again.

It was, I haven't scored in a while, I've been saying every week that I'd like to score more goals. I think Jeff's flicked it on and I've taken it on the chest and slotted it in.

Goals spread around, which is nice that you're not relying on somebody to get 25 goals on their own.

Yes they are, not like someone scoring week in week out, even Simon Downer scored and got a goal.

That must have been a bit of a shock.

It was good to see him running up the pitch and luckily for him, the keeper miskicked it and got to score his first goal.

It shows a great team spirit and sends out a message to everybody else in the league.

It gives a big statement to the rest of the league that we want to push for playoffs now.
