In the post match interview he said: "They had a gameplan and they stuck to it. But how can you play against 12 men, it's ridiculous. Could I play like that? Would I play like that? If I had the players maybe. There are what they are and we are what we are. We stuck together and we never gave up but it's so disappointed when it comes to the officials.

"2-0 down with five minutes to go he books Ashley Nadesan for kicking the ball away. Technically yes it's a yellow but we were 2-0 down away from home. The FA ought to come down and look at things like this."

But Yems knows his side will not be the only ones to lose at Cheltenham this season. He said: "It was a little bit men against boys. Our little lot grew up a little bit and if they didn't they will soon. Anyone who comes here it's going to be hard for them."
