Boss blasts 'naive' Brocton after stoppage time chaos leads to defeat
Frustrated boss Alex Curtis bemoaned Brocton’s "naivety" after they conceded twice in stoppage time and had a man sent-off in collapsing to a 3-1 defeat at home to Romulus.
Lucas Green-Birch appeared to have earned at least a point for the promotion-chasing hosts when he cancelled out Maradoche Mipro’s strike early in the second half for the visitors.
But all was lost in a chaotic added period which saw Romulus score twice, before Charlie King was dismissed for a rash challenge.
That came after Tyree Sanusi had prodded the visitors ahead and then scored again on the break to seal the win.
A gloomy Curtis said: “On the balance of play and chances, we should have won the game comfortably.
“But we don’t deserve to win the game when we defend as badly as we did in the last 10 minutes.
