Porthmadog manager Chris Jones reacts to 4-0 win against Nantlle Vale
Transcript
00:00Today was not easy at all against Antebellum, what's your thoughts on the 90 minutes performance
00:09for Paul Barry?
00:10Yeah, tough game like you say, obviously it was not a local derby as you mentioned there.
00:14They came with a game plan to frustrate us and you could see that in the first half,
00:18we just needed to be patient and eventually we were going to break them down.
00:21We had a couple of chances to do that in the first half, they were dangerous I thought
00:25on the counter attack as well at times in the first half so we just spoke at our time
00:28about taking our time, we will eventually break them down, trying to move the ball a
00:31bit quicker and that's what happened in the second half.
00:34Once we got our first goal, complete control then and we went on to get a comfortable win.
00:39Substitution has made a difference as well, you must be sitting there thinking we need
00:44to change, you changed it and results came.
00:46Yeah, obviously we've got a strong squad as I've mentioned before so we've got to use
00:50it, especially when the game is so tight like that.
00:52It was not on the lads that came off, we just thought we needed a bit of freshness when
00:56we made the changes and it worked, Ashley got a goal when he came on, Kai got his goal
01:01when he went off front.
01:02And at the end of the game, Tom Mills was playing in left back was he?
01:07Well he was meant to be playing as a 10 but he started dropping into Tanga on the ball
01:11a little bit off the back four but I think that's his first game he's not scored for
01:14us isn't he?
01:15He wasn't getting much change out of the defence to be fair to him, he's looking for the ball.
01:18Like I say, they've done really well, they had a game plan to frustrate us and slow things
01:23down and it worked for a long time but in that type of game it's just about being patient,
01:28know that we've got the quality and eventually the goals came.
01:30The game next week, Miner Beach Tigers, it's going to be a difficult one on the plastic
01:34pitch at Bangor.
01:35Yeah, obviously we trained there so we're a little bit used to the surroundings there
01:39but every game's tough, we're there to be shot at at the moment in the table so it's
01:43just about keeping consistency going there and putting on a good performance.
01:48And a word on the Welsh Cup draw, Herbert's at home, your thoughts?
01:51Yeah, it'll be tough, obviously they're a very good side, I went to watch them last
01:54night and know a little bit about them but you're in it for these tough challenges, we're
01:58in football for these things so it'll be a bit of a free-at and we'll go and see what
02:02we can get out of it.
02:03Diolch, Chris.
02:04Diolch.
