"It's sloppy play that's got them a goal.

"They've shut up shop and not tried to have a go but we gave the ball away on the halfway line and we've not tried to retrieve it quickly.

"It's that mistake that cost us.

"We took the game to them. A bit more quality and a bit more care in front of goal and we could have gone ahead.

"I can't remember Neil having a shot to save but you've got to take your chances.

"We played reasonably well last week and we've lost two games.

"Maybe we need to go back and be a bit more ugly."

"We've done the hard work today. We knew that they would give us a game.

"I thought we had to roll our sleeves up second half, I had to remind them what was at stake during half-time."

"Ade Akinbiyi coming on gave us that little bit more power and we changed it slightly and brought Kabba on.

"From then on I though there was only going to be one winner - it was only a matter of scoring."
