Webb fumes at defensive frailty

Webb wonders if some of his players are good enough

King's Lynn fell to their second consecutive defeat in Blue Square North with a 3-2 loss at Gateshead.

The Linnets had a 2-0 first-half lead after goals from Michael Frew, but manager Keith Webb told BBC Radio Norfolk that they threw it away.

"We had a mad 15 minutes where we conceded three of the softest goals.

"As a manager you pull your hair out when those situations occur, we just couldn't get the final touch on the chances we had to equalise," he said.

If you defend like we defend then you can't expect to keep clean sheets

The Linnets have lost four of their last six league games, and Webb is becoming increasingly frustrated at the manner in which they are conceding goals.

"If you defend like we defend then you can't expect to keep clean sheets, we were poor defending and they were good enough to capitalise on that.

"As a manager you can't legislate against mistakes like that.

"We have to look at whether the players are good enough for the level of football we're playing at," he said.

Lynn have a break from league matters this weekend when they face Stafford Rangers at The Walks in the FA Trophy.
