Manager Mark Yates admitted that the manner of his side's defeat at Weymouth in the Blue Square Premier on Saturday was hard to take.

More than in control of proceedings and a goal to the good thanks to Simon Russell's fine strike, Harriers looked to be on course to continue their unbeaten run at the Wessex.

But some awful defending, uncharacteristic of recent times, cost dear as the hosts came back to win it at the death with two goals from set-pieces.

With more than 100 away fans watching on, Yates confessed that it was a fixture his side shouldn't have lost.

"It was a game we controlled and should have won, but we just got a little bit complacent," said Yates after the game.

"It doesn't get much better than being 1-0 up away from home and creating chances - we were so on top for ten minutes after we scored.

"But the marking from the corner was just non-existent and that's hard to take.

"We brought down a really strong support today and it was a game we should have won."

Harriers now have one game at home and one game away to finish off the season - first up its play-off chasers Burton Albion at Aggborough.

Speaking of the upcoming games, Yates added: "Six points is what we're playing for - we won't want to make it easy for anybody and we'll bounce back on Tuesday.

"It's a good local derby and there should be a decent crowd... - we still played some great stuff today and created plenty of chances but just weren't ruthless enough again and that's come back to bite us."
