Head coach Ken Forshee admitted his Oxford City Stars side were down in the dumps after their 8-1 double defeat in English National League South Division 1.

Stars were hammered 8-1 at bottom club Bracknell Hornets, before losing 5-2 at home to Slough Jets.

And Forshee said: “We struggled this weekend and in our minds hit rock bottom.

“Saturday was a terrible performance. Sunday we had a team meeting before the game and I thought the effort against Slough was much, much better.

“But it’s just very obvious right now that we are in a funk and not much is going right for us.

“But myself and the guys are committed to working hard and pulling ourselves through this.”
