Rugby Town bounced back from their 1-0 home reverse against Cirencester Town with a much-improved display at Hitchin Town and Billy Jeffrey was pleased with the performance of his threadbare side.

With several injuries and suspensions, many players were forced to play in unfamilar roles, including Mark Edge as a right wing back and Ashley Blake as an attacking central midfielder but Billy was pleased with how things worked out.

He said: "I was delighted with the performance and the effort tonight. We worked hard and all we needed in the second half was a bit of luck.

"Their keeper has pulled off seven or eight good saves, and we have hit a post too. If we continue to play like that and create the chances, I am sure the goals will come.

"I thought we looked better in the middle of the park tonight. We won a lot more ball there than on Saturday, and Ashley (Blake) created himself some good space behind the front two."
