Kevin Nolan has bemoaned the "terrible start" Notts County made in their trip to Stevenage on Saturday, which resulted in a 3-0 defeat.
The Magpies were a goal down after just three minutes when Matty Godden pounced from close range to head in Steven Schumacher's centre.
Stevenage were nearly pegged back on several occasions but they went on to seal the win with two quickfire second-half goals at the Lamex Stadium.
Nolan told the Nottingham Post: "The lads knew what to expect. Stevenage have been on a fantastic run and you can see why.
"It was a terrible start. No matter what level you play at, the way you start a game is massively important. It was not good enough.
"We didn't deserve to win the game and I think the result is a fair reflection of that.
"It is a disappointing day all round but we go again – we cannot get too low when we lose in the same way we did not get too high when we were winning games.
"We were unbeaten in five games before today and the lads have been fantastic during that time so now we need to go on another run like that.
"We will go through this game again and I have told the players it will be a long day in the video room but once we put it to bed we will focus on Hartlepool, which is a huge game at home for us."
