Club captain Paul Thirlwell gave us his reaction to the 2-2 draw with Orient at the post-match press conference.

He said: "It's difficult to explain a game like that. It felt like we did them first half and they did us second half.

"It's very disappointing. They are the team going away on a high, but when all is said and done it should be us who is walking away with three points.

"The second half display wasn't through complacency or anything like that. We knew they were going to be on the wrong side of a telling off and that we would have to deal with them, but we couldn't seem to get out of our own half after their first goal. That was down to a lack of quality from us really.

"We said at half time that we didn't want a repeat of what happened at Exeter but we have let it happen again. During the second half you want to stop the game from going deeper but the quality wasn't there for us.

"You are clearing the ball and the front lads are having to chase it all the time, because you aren't really finding them with decent balls. It comes back quickly when its like that and that makes it tough for everyone.

"Personally I am happy with my fitness since I came back and it's all been about getting time on the grass. I feel fine after the run of games that I've had and hopefully that will continue.

"If we go to Colchester and do what we did in the first half then we will be fine. We can beat anyone if we play like that. We haven't been beaten today, even though it feels like it, so we have to concentrate on the positives and build on it.

"We've got some good results under our belts recently and Tuesday night is another chance to continue that. We'll be going down there for three points and hopefully that's what we'll come back with."
