Smith felt his side deserved a result at Harrogate

AFC Telford United boss Rob Smith has said he still believes his side can win promotion despite their second defeat in a week, at Harrogate on Tuesday.

"Any defeat is hard to take but our second half display was sensational," he told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"We hit the woodwork twice and if we play like that every week we'll win more than we lose, that's for certain.

"We're only six points off the [Blue Square North] leaders, and if we play like that we can make that up."

Meanwhile Smith was pleased with the return to action of long-term injury victims Indy Khela and Simon Forsdick.

"Indy looked like the old Indy, and it was a good game back for Fozzy," he added.
