Speaking to Radio Nottingham after the game, here are brief highlights of what Shirtliff had to say:
"Disapointed we've lost, but there are a couple of good things, in terms of I've seen a couple of players out there who I haven't seen all season. Disapointed we didn't take our chances and in the second half we could have carved them open at times, and our final ball was really poor, so were disapointed in that respect, but overall i'm not too down hearted."
"4 of the changes were enforced, Jacobs played well and he got the man of the match award, which I'm pleased about. Arnold has just started training with the first team, and he looked sharp, he at times tonight was a bit unselfish, but he's one for the future"
"Talbot was stretchered off after a clash of heads, but the good news is that he's up and about, but having suffered concussion he's a doubt for Saturday."
