LEINTWARDINE Colts manager Chris Shurmer was fuming after seeing his side throw away a 3-0 lead against Tenbury Colts.

Ashley Martin, Jonny Tranter and Chris Martin all converted chances to ensure that Leintwardine went into half-time in a commanding position.

But it was a different story after the break as Tenbury stormed back to win the game with Jack Kitchen helping himself to two goals.

Oliver Swift also blazed a penalty over the bar for Leintwardine to leave Shurmer shaking his head in disbelief.

“It was rubbish, how can we go 3-0 up by half-time away from home and then lose 5-3 to a team we beat 7- 0 a couple of weeks ago?”

asked Shurmer.

“We have got the Leintwardine Cup against Tenbury Town on Saturday and I will be looking for a response from the players."
