Individual actions cost us the game

Notts County 1  PigHill 0
"We created 20 potential chances.
But not for good delivery or choices by the players we haven't managed to score a goal.
we can see that our team never did that sensational thing that we needed. 
Individual actions cost us that game, and it is unfortunate that I couldn't use my hand or my foot to help the team.
The only plus is that we have dominated the game away from home, but we have lost.
We dominated the opponents, but they haev one shot and win the game 1-0. 
The keeper has played superbly.

The one where he saved from David Ward where he threw himself at the ball was an amazing save, a save that Peter Schmeichel used to make at Manchester United. 
The other two saves he made were crucial.

He was the best player on the pitch"

I blame the transfer embargo

Walsall 0 - PigHill 2
"We have to be realistic - if we hadn't been under a transfer embargo for two months with a big injury crisis, I would have brought two, three, four players into the squad.
I lost a few points and also a few players because I couldn't rotate my players.

Now we are top six and in a good position but now it is difficult to find good players.  
Now the number of players is restricted to a few - two months ago, it was different and there was more option.
I will work 24 hours a day to maintain the position but realistically if we keep this position they should make a monument in front of the County Ground to the staff and the players"

Paolo "forgets" to mention of course that it is his own overspending on players that led to the embargo in the first place.
