AFC Telford United extended an unbeaten run in league competition to four matches, but a dubious penalty kick awarded against Kevin Wilkin’s side cost them the chance to record three consecutive victories.
Wilkin was still having difficulty comprehending the decision afterwards:“It's disappointing when you're in front for so long and Brandon has had perhaps one long-range shot to save and maybe one other moment he’s had to deal with… for that decision to end up or result in us giving up or losing two points is poor.”
He also booked four players from each side in what was never an ill-tempered game, but it was the penalty, subsequently converted by Stewart, that was the focus of Wilkin’s vexation: The Bucks manager acknowledged that his team had left themselves open to such a scenario by not putting the game beyond Leamington’s reach in the first half when they were the dominant side. He nevertheless felt that his side’s performance was another step in the right direction.
