"I am very, very disappointed after that. The lads are gutted not to win the game and we really should have been three up in the first half but a couple of lapses in concentration cost us two goals.

"I know we have only drawn the game but I think it will give us a psychological edge going into the last few weeks because we played so well.

"Martin Devaney is absolutely distraught in the dressing room and cannot stop apologising but these things happen in football and he will score those nine out of ten times.

"I cannot praise my team enough this afternoon because I felt we were excellent out there. We kept going and put them under pressure. Daniel Nardiello did well and managed to get in behind to create a lot for us.

"We have not lost the game at the end of the day, we are still above Swansea and we will keep going. We just switched off for the second goal. Lee Trundle is all left foot anyway and we really should have pushed him onto his weaker side.

"Expectations have changed around here this season and people now believe we can do something. We have a ten game season now and we have to look to win six of those to be guaranteed finishing in the top six - if we can do that then we will definitely be in the play offs if not the top two.

"It has been a bewildering afternoon really. We showed tremendous character and kept going but I feel we deserved more than what we ended up with".
