EVANS ABOVE

Keeper nightmare frustrates boss

- PAUL BROWN DEAN BRENNAN

DEAN BRENNAN pointed the finger at goalkeeper Owen Evans as Fleetwood spoiled Barnet's big day.

Will Davies and Elliot Bonds scored to inflict defeat on the home side, playing their first game back in the Football League for seven years.

But it was a real blooper from Evans, who only agreed to make his loan spell from Cheltenham permanent last month, that put them up against it.

He was robbed by Davies, who scored on his Fleetwood debut, and asked if it was down to a lapse in concentration, Barnet boss Brennan said: "He has to own that. That's down to him.

"He's missed all of preseason with a load of messing with his contract, and when you miss preseason you're rusty and you're going to do stupid things like that.
