Ger Nash: 'It’s way beyond frustrating and it's unacceptable in terms of the message we give the players'

“At half time I thought we were in the game, that we have a real opportunity to go and take some points, we are looking good in that respect but the key moment in the second half is unacceptable, simply unacceptable."

FRUSTRATING: Cork City’s search for their first win under Ger Nash continued as his side remained rooted to the foot of the table following Friday's 3-1 defeat at Tolka Park and it's safe to say the 38-year-old was almost at a loss trying to understand just why his side started so poorly.  Pic: ©INPHO/James Lawlor

Cork City’s search for their first win under Ger Nash continued as his side remained rooted to the foot of the table following Friday's 3-1 defeat at Tolka Park and it's safe to say the 38-year-old was almost at a loss trying to understand just why his side started so poorly.

“I am obviously hugely disappointed, it's a game that passed us by that we had a chance to pick up points in” bemoaned the hurting Nash. “We're in a position where we can't do that, it's as simple as that. It's a hugely disappointing night. The key moment in the game is how we started and how we gifted them the first opportunity, which they took. It's tough, you come to a place, they have a new manager, they have Europe next week, they are right on top of it, and we end up with a really dreadful start.”
