Down but not out, says Chambers

Larry Chambers believes AFC Telford United are down but not out of their Blue Square North play-off after losing the first leg 2-0 at Barrow.

The Bucks' assistant manager told BBC Radio Shropshire: "The lads are down, but we'll get them back up for Sunday.

"2-0's a funny score. If we get an early goal back at our place it's a different game.

"Whatever happens, it's been a great season - but it's not over yet and we'll give it our best shot."

Matty Lewis was close to putting the Bucks ahead, but two second-half lapses gave Barrow the initiative thanks to goals from substitute Paul Tait and Nick Rogan.

"Matty had our best chance, but we switched off twice in the second half - the first a slip by Jimmy Turner, the second a great finish," added Chambers.

The second leg is on Sunday at the New Bucks Head (kick-off 1500 BST) - full commentary on BBC Radio Shropshire 96FM, and online at bbc.co.uk/shropshire
