Managers comments on City v Macclesfield
Macclesfield were up for the game, but we played at a tempo that wasn't going to hurt them in the first half.
We made life difficult for ourselves, we got caught because we were sloppy and the lad put it away well.
But we squeezed them in the second half, got the equaliser and then Jason Koumas' goal is top draw - well worth the admission fee just for that.
Brian Horton
"We scored a tremendous goal early on with some very neat football - we kept them out and the home side were booed off at half-time.
"Unfortunately for us they scored too soon after the break and the winning goal was pure quality - there is nothing anyone can do about a strike like that.
"Our priority is the league and when we get our strikers back we should see an improvement in our position."
