YORK City manager Neal Ardley reprimanded his team after a 2-2 draw against an unbeaten Solihull Moors side, with the Minstermen providing more defensive errors to lose out on three points.

Ardley’s side took the lead in the first-half through Thierry Latty-Fairweather, before goals from Callum Maycock and Josh Kelly cancelled out the York left-back’s earlier opener.

Substitute Maziar Kouhyar did score a late goal to claim City a point, but Ardley vented his frustrations at what felt like more points dropped for the Minstermen.

“I’m really frustrated.” Ardley told BBC Radio York.

“I thought that in the first half the game plan that we worked on was good, the structure was good, we limited them to very little, we had threats and as soon as we started to be a bit braver and moved forward we caused them problems.

“I thought that the second half, everything we said to them in the half-time, you might as well have taken those conversations and flipped it to do the opposite.

“Frustration as a manager, we knew they had gone two up and they changed it from a 3-4-3 because they knew our structure was too good.

“We knew they would press us a bit higher and stop us from playing out, we started out slow and lethargic, let them get on top of us and let them pin us.

“The last thing we said was that they were going to pressure and to be ready to play beyond them, we didn’t and their goals were terrible, so, so bad.

“We’ve conceded 26 goals in 13 games, you don’t need to be a rocket science to wonder why York City are down by the bottom.

“You cannot possibly be near the top of the league with that, we’ve scored goals, 19 or 20 and we know the goalscoring is okay.

“But you’re out of games before you’re in them, and it’s not good enough.

“It was the same as Boreham Wood, we’ve had one clean sheet all season and it’s not good enough.

“It’s not just the back players, it’s everything, the intensity from the front players and the ball retention at the end of the pitch was staggeringly poor today.

“If we were at it there and did our jobs, then we’d win the game comfortably. The structure is there.

“If we’re saying it’s a better performance, then it shows that things haven’t been good.”
