Give the ball away, go back to the goalkeeper, go backwards and square and safe.

Then you invite it on and obviously we've invited it on and they've took advantage of it.

But we've been saved by decision.

Chris, were you disappointed at half-time?

What did you say to your players?

It was a little bit flat first half, wasn't it?

Yeah, it was.

We had to grind it out a little bit.

It's a huge three points for us.

I'm always result as well as performance, but the result is far bigger than the performance tonight.

We gave the ball away cheaply.

We never got going, never got into a rhythm.

We were caught in between, whether to press, whether to drop off and protect.

I thought we didn't react or anticipate, allow players to get out of tight areas.

and weren't physical enough and I thought second half we certainly started off on the front foot a bit more physical where do you think that came from first half just the last you said a couple of days rest maybe and just players yeah I don't know because the preparation was good for us and we were you know we're

We're always up for a game, but it was just, as I said, it was just a bit lacklustre and they got a few passes in and got into some good positions and it wasn't us, so a few little reminders.

But we still gave the ball away so cheaply second half, but I thought, you know, we created the better chances.

I never really felt that they were going to score.

I always felt that we would take it from 1-0 to 2-0 and we obviously had chances to do that.

Just kind of getting after the other centre-half, really, and being positive and all step in.
