ON THE MARK: Andre Tulloch got Spartak's only goal on Saturday.
IT was a week to forget for Barnt Green Spartak boss GJ Singh as his side suffered league and cup defeats.
Singh was controversially sent from the dugout as his team's defence of the Smedley Crooke Memorial Charity Cup ended with a 2-0 semi-final defeat to Continental Star last Wednesday.
In a heated game, goalkeeper Paul Hewitt was dismissed for foul and abusive language.
But there was further controversy when Singh was removed from the technical area for alleged foul and abusive language towards the linesman.
However, Singh insists he was totally innocent.
He said: "I am really disappointed with the assistant referee.

"I never criticise the referee or linesmen for a result, but what I can't accept is when someone is blatantly lying."
Things got worse for Spartak on Saturday, when they lost 3-1 at Meir KA in the Midland Combination Premier Division.
The team's injury crisis became so bad that Singh was forced to play for the first 45 minutes.
It was the first time he had started a match for seven years.
Andre Tulloch struck a consolation goal for Spartak, who sit fifth from bottom in the league.
Spartak, who have two games remaining, are without a fixture this weekend.
Droitwich Spa got over their Worcestershire Junior Cup final defeat with a 5-2 win over Thimblemill REC in Division One.

League rivals Fairfield Villa were without a game on Saturday, but suffered a 2-1 defeat against Northfield Town last Wednesday.
Villa travel to Mile Oak Rovers this Saturday.
In Midland Combination Division Two, Droitwich Spa Reserves will be looking for a victory when they entertain Enville Athletic.
