Coventry manager Tony Mowbray said:

"I thought we huffed and puffed today, and didn't quite blow their house down.

"They're a decent football team and probably in a false position.

"It's frustrating for us, especially when we got back to 1-1 and we should have gone on to win from there. We have to accept that, and put the defeat behind us."
