We started well, we looked decent in the first half and we were posing a goal threat.“But after going ahead, we lost two really bad goals.
The first one, we give the ball away in our own half and then we don’t defend a cross and don’t pick up the man, so that’s three errors leading to the first goal.“The second goal is a mistimed challenge in the box to give Tranent the lead.“They grew in confidence from that and when they scored early in the second half, we just never got back from that at all.“We found it really difficult, but they played really well.“We didn’t deserve anything from the game.
Tranent were the better team.”Rovers will look to bounce back away to Civil Service Strollers on Saturday, with just three wins from their seven games so far.Clark added: “It’s another hard game for us.
