Tadcaster Albion manager Paul Marshall:

“We started off okay as we got possession of the ball and they didn’t close us down high up the field.

“We played in the wrong areas for in the first half. We got a goal which was a good goal.

“It was good work from Josh Greening. It was a real shambles for Retford’s goal.

“In the second half they were a lot better.

“Tuesday is now a big game because there is a bit of pressure put on Shaw Lane to beat Albion.”
