Fair play to him. ‘We got what we deserved’.
Magnanimous in defeat. No excuses. ‘Couldn’t cope with their intensity and work rate in the second half’.
Rare honesty from an away manager.

Level pegging for first time since the opening fixture v Bristol City. Pegged it back over last few weeks. Could be significant in the final reckoning.
