"We are disappointed to say the least with the result after putting the effort in, but if we let goals in like we are doing at the moment and giving away free kicks on the edge of the box, then we've only got ourselves to blame.  We have to make sure that we put our chances away and defend better as a team."

"You can't leave it to refereeing decisions; we have to help ourselves first.  We are disappointed that nothing was breaking for us in the box.  It was being blocked or saved and it gets to be a bit of inevitability about it.  They had one chance and one goal and it would have to drop to Ricky Shakes wouldn't it.  Those scripts have been written a thousand times."

"He put the free kick away well, and I think he gave the foul for the intent of the challenge, whether we got something on the ball or not, if you go through the player it becomes irrelevant.  He was going nowhere and we are letting things like that happen."

"For the second, I don't know if the guy who crosses it is offside or not, I don't know.  I need to have a look at that, because the linesman won't answer your question.  It's disappointing that the officials won't do anything like that, because that means 'does he know?' or 'does he not know?'!  If he is making it up as he goes along, then he can say anything."

"I can't remember exactly what he said to us, but you ask the question and he says you were playing him on, it makes it look like he was making it up as the game went on.  After we scored it was going through the back of my head - 'have we scored too early', if we had scored half way through the second half, they would have totally caved in.  They rallied a little and they were trying to hit us on the break and that's exactly what they have done.  They have done exactly what they wanted to do and with the 451 formation they started with, even though they changed it slightly, they have got what they wanted to get."

"We have been talking in the dressing room and a few of the lads have said that if we have any more like that and we will start to fall out with people about little things that are going on, because little things add up to big things.  If we don't stop it we will get ourselves into a situation that we had last season, and we are not a team like that.  We are not a team that should be at that end of the table."

"We need to build on what we did in the last five or six months where we progressed a little bit, we need to get out of the habit of doing stupid things at stupid times.  All credit to the lads though, we are trying to get the win, we are not sitting back and thinking a point will be enough.  We did that towards the end of last season where we took a point and moved onto the next game, today we tried to win it and we ended up losing it. It's the devil you do - the devil you don't."

"I need to check the dvd from the game, I'm not happy with coming off and I was thinking is it because they were trying to probe down that side or was it because we went for it.  I will look at it because they were trying to probe down that side.  I'm very disappointed the way the second goal went in."
