    Fair result in the end. They took the 1st half but we took the second.

    I think down there our hit them on the break tactics will win the game. They have to attack us and in doing so will leave telling gaps. That's why they concede at home. Their best chance was today.

    Unlucky. You've used up your chances.

    We let them dictate the game instead of playing passing football like we can, proved it in the later stages of the second half that if we pass the ball they couldn't cope. We need to take the game to them.

    We couldn't keep it on the deck for some reason. Too much Championship ping-pong head tennis for my liking. They got us down to their level which is why we struggled, as we should have played proper pass and move and overrun them.

    Frankly, we were a bit jammy today.
