Halesowen Town 1 Bedford Town 4 - Report

Yeltz manager Russ Penn put a brave face on the torrid afternoon. “Firstly, Reece Flanagan has been taken to hospital with a suspected dislocated shoulder. In football I’ve learnt to expect the unexpected. We were miles off it today, I didn’t see that coming and I have to take the blame. Bedford were well organised but we let that happen. Previously we’ve been well organised, hard to beat with cohesion but we were anything but that today. We lacked leadership, confidence and energy. We will now reflect on a tough week, dust ourselves down and go again.”
