Reid on that ref decision

|

ReidyWinston Reid has pledged the squad will brush themselves down after the latest refereeing decision to go against the Irons and “get on with it.”

The central defender admitted: “You always get frustrated with decisions, but at the end of the day the referee has made it and then that’s it, you can’t do anything about it, you just have to get on with it. ”

He told www.whufc.com: “They (Palace) got back into the game, scored a goal and we tried to push for it at the end, tried to go up and get a win, we needed a win.

“Of course, if we had four points more we’d be a lot further up, but it wasn’t the case to be. Obviously, when the team’s playing really well it’s unfortunate not to pick up those extra points.

“There are still seven games to play, so there’s still loads of football to be played and it’s not like we’re playing poorly or anything, we’ve just been lacking maybe a little bit of sharpness and a little bit of luck, probably, as well.

“We’ll dust ourselves down, we’ll get back on it next week and be ready for the next game.”
