LEE Nogan looked to the positives after York City had to settle for a point against Torquay United.

But the City striker, who donned the captain's armband in the absence of Chris Brass, admitted the Minstermen were frustrated not to have claimed all three.

"It is three games undefeated now so that is something we have to be positive about," Nogan told the Evening Press.

"But it was bitterly disappointing because we could have done with taking all three points against a side like Torquay.

"We had done the hard work in the first half and gone a goal-up.

"You would expect us to get a grip of the game then. We were at home and we should be forcing the issue.

"But they put-passed us in the second-half and they certainly didn't look a side who was struggling.

"You have got to give credit to them but we are disappointed.

"The ball was like a time-bomb to us in the second-half and we had no composure.

"The fans were brilliant and you could tell they were up for it and wanting us to do well. that is what makes it even more frustrating."
