Tisdale has a lot of thinking to do following defeat

Exeter City manager Paul Tisdale says he has a lot of thinking to do after watching his side crash to another defeat.

The Grecians shipped three goals against Cheltenham and the manager made clear his frustration following the 3-0 result.

He told BBC Sport: "At the end of the game we played enough football to have scored a goal but if we can't defend at the crucial moments, which we didn't today then we put pressure on ourselves to score.

"I'm just very disappointed because I can see the level of play we have in the team but we've just not managed to perform at the crucial moments... I've got a lot of thinking to do after today's game because it's happened once or twice too many.

"There's a resson for these things and it's becoming a trend...I don't think we can go on like this."

City's next game is away at Bury in the FA Cup on Saturday (November 3).
