Paul Buckle disappointed with stalemate

Luton Town manager Paul Buckle admitted his disappointment after the Hatters played out a goalless draw with Gateshead on Tuesday evening.

The Hatters would have moved four points clear of sixth-placed Kidderminster Harriers with just one game left to play in the Blue Square Bet Premier campaign.

And with a tough test against champions Fleetwood Town lying in wait, Buckle's men need at least one point from their clash on Saturday to be assured of a play-off berth.

Despite seeing his side fail to claim all the spoils, Buckle was pleased with the clean sheet and the overall level of performance of his players.

He told the club's official website: "I think if had come here earlier in the season it would have been a good point.

"But with games running out we're disappointed now to have won because we came here to win the game.

"It wasn't the best pitch but that's not an excuse - we knew the reward for winning here tonight and it's not to be but we have to be realistic.

"We've got a point and a clean sheet and all credit must go to the players because in the last five games they've given me everything - the performance levels have been excellent."

Looking ahead to Saturday's mouthwatering clash with Fleetwood, Buckle added: "Saturday is going to be exciting. We've given ourselves a chance.

"I've been frank with the players in the dressing room and told them not to feel sorry for themselves as we need to focus on Saturday.

"We've got to dust ourselves down. We weren't at our best tonight but we will need to be at our best on Saturday."
