Pandas coach Martin Richardson said: “Pandas started the game well creating a couple of early chances and took the lead through Ellis Bath, who is having a very good season.

“Skirlaugh got themselves an equaliser shortly after and then soon found themselves 4-1 up at half-time after a catalogue of errors from Pandas.

“We made a few changes at the break, we looked a bit more solid and created a couple of half-chances but found the visiting keeper in decent form.

“On the hour mark the away side made it 5-1 and shortly after six but Pandas kept plugging away and got a consolation through Joey Baker with the final kick of the game.

"It was a really disappointing performance from us today, we had a few missing but no excuses we were pretty poor.

"We need to stick together and get through this tough run we’re on but make no mistake a big improvement is needed.”
