Hakan Hayrettin blamed a lack of discipline for Maidstone's humiliation at Solihull Moors.

The Stones moved another step closer to National League relegation after Saturday's 5-0 defeat left them 13 points from safety.

Moors scored twice from long throws, along with a free-kick and a penalty, to lead 4-0 at half-time.

Maidstone improved in the second half but the damage was done and second-placed Moors added an injury-time fifth to complete a miserable night for the visitors.

Head coach Hayrettin said: "It wasn't good enough first half, nowhere near it.

"Penalty, free-kick, throw, all these things are restarts, we're big on that, but there was a lack of discipline in the first half.

"It was like a mad 25 minutes and it was all over."

Maidstone knew what to expect from Solihull - a team of giants who get the ball forward quickly - but they couldn't handle Tim Flowers' side.

Hayrettin added: "We're playing against a team that takes the responsibility away from their players and play a certain way so they'll miss out about three passes before it gets up there.

"They're very effective and very good at it.

"We just didn't deal with the situation at hand.

"We'd worked on it, we knew what to expect and we didn't do it.

"It's very frustrating. The league table doesn't like, we've just got to keep working hard.

"Ultimately there's nowhere to hide.

"We're not going to be playing Solihull every week but what we need to do every week when we're out there, we've got to be disciplined and we weren't for the first 45 minutes.

"I don't think we were and that's why we lost the game.

"Balls were being put into our box and we didn't compete."
