TOM Killick has described his Dorchester side as being 'blunt' after yet another draw but is fully behind the players to turn things around. 

The Magpies have now gone five league games without a win after their 1-1 draw at home to Taunton on Saturday. 

It means the club has now drawn in four consecutive games,with a lack of finishing remaining the teams main problem, according to Killick. 

He said: "We were blunt in terms of our attacking play.

"With all the possession we have had, we have been creating but we are not being clinical enough.

"Teams have spells like this but we are trying to snap out of it.

"We are getting into good positions but there are still probably not enough clear cut chances and that is about decision making and executing that better.

"It is what we are working towards and I still have the belief in the players who are giving everything to turn things around.

"We can't get too down about it though, we are not in a desperate situation. We just don't have as many points as we would like in recent games but there are lots of positives and the players are desperate to put things right."

Despite lacking a clinical edge, Killick admitted that the draw was a fair result.

He added: "I thought both sides tried to play and make it as entertaining as possible and they deserved their point, they played well. "

Killick was also full of praise for winger Marcus Daws who struck a sensational free kick past Josh Gould to bring the scores level after Taunton had taken the lead.

Killick added "It was a quality strike and it was against one of the best keepers around, so it was no mean feat and fair fair play to him."

The Magpies boss was also asked about a potential penalty shout for his side just before half time as Shaquille Gwengwe appeared to be brought down in the box. 

The referee had deemed there was no contact though, a decision which left Killick feeling somewhat confused.

He added: "We thought it was on of those where if the referee says there is no contact then why not give Shaq a yellow card. 

"But there was contact and I think he didn't book him because he realised it was probably a penalty.

"We must not get distracted by things that are not in our control though. Our quality and execution in the final third we can control, not the referees performance."

Next up for the Magpies is a short trip to Wimborne on Saturday, November 30.
