"We played some good football at times but we gave a poor goal away when we were trying to play in our own half. And it can be suicide to try and play in your own half as we did today.

"We had some great opportunities in the first half but just didn't make the most of them.

"I changed it a bit at half time and it opened the game up a bit. Allan Riussell did some very good work but so did the rest of the team. So I can't criticise too much but we're just not picking up the points.

"I think we have missed Parky more than I ever thought we would and we've got a tough game at Forest now and I might experiment a bit. Because the real bread and butter is the League, because we're not going to win the League Cup."
