Abbott distraught following rout

Carlisle boss Greg Abbott was a man of few words following his side's heavy defeat to Swindon.

James Collins netted in between Andy Williams' double before substitute Raffaele De Vita completed a 4-0 rout for the Robins.

Carlisle's travelling fans called for Abbott to be axed after the final whistle at the County Ground.

Abbott restricted his post-match comments to a minimum after admitting he found few positives to take from the heavy beating.

He said: "I was very disappointed with the result and the way we played.

"We were beaten by a good side. Swindon are a good side, so let us leave it at that.

"All I am prepared to say is that there are positives and negatives in every game, so there is nothing more to be said."
