Adam Lakeland expressed his disappointment after his King’s Lynn Town side delivered a below-par performance against Farsley Celtic on Tuesday night.The Linnets were wasteful in front of goal and they were punished for two defensive lapses by a struggling Farsley outfit who had come into Tuesday’s National League North clash on the back of a 6-0 defeat.Lynn boss Lakeland said: “I’m really disappointed with, in the end, the performance, the result and the goals especially.“If we’ve got aspirations of being up there, we have to win games like that, and that’s no disrespect to Farsley at all.”I had a bad feeling about this game. Just because everybody says if you look at their recent results – and they’ve played every single game this season away from home, even their home games – they’re organised and they’re gritty and they’ve got some good players in there.“Fair play to them, but I’m really disappointed with their goals. And it’s not the first time now that I’ve seen that; we’ve been defensively very, very sound in the main, but the times when we’ve conceded two goals or the one time where we’ve conceded more than two, the goals have been unacceptable.“The most frustrating thing about it is that we started really well and we looked like a really good team. We should have been ahead. “It’s simple as that. We were well on top of them, we were getting in, getting around, getting through, the keeper has made a couple of saves, we’ve missed some chances and then just a lapse in concentration on a transition, a player who we know comes inside and it’s too easy for him to get it onto his right foot and then the shot’s not hit with any venom and it’s gone into the middle of the goal and it’s just a poor goal.“The second goal was a carbon copy of the goal we conceded here against Peterborough Sports and I can’t see the same mistakes if we want to be where we want to be, so we’ve got a lot of thinking to do.”
