"Someone just said we were unlucky. I think we were unlucky losers. That is a fact, I'm afraid.

"If you don't keep it out at one end and put it in the other then against a team like Peterborough, who have players who can hurt you - 1-0 will be the result.

"The frustrating thing is, we think we have done well to come away 1-0. We haven't, we have lost the game. It is all about winning and we were good enough to win here today, and we didn't.

"We should be disappointed. We have come to second in the league and their keeper has been the best player. We are good enough to go anywhere, we have shown that, but when we do and have chances like we have today, we have got to be ruthless and it has to go in the back of the net.

"Yes, there are lots of positives but it is all about winning I'm afraid. Peterborough probably didn't play as well as they have all season, but they are the ones going away with a 1-0 win. That's the only thing that counts.

"For their goal, the smallest man on the pitch scores at the far post. So I think it is fair to say I was unhappy.

"I think we also had chances to stop it going in. I have spoken to Steve Haslam and it just isn't acceptable. It is something we have to put right, and we take it pretty quickly into Brentford on Tuesday.

"Peterborough are second in the league but particularly in the first half, their keeper was much busier than ours. It is nothing less than we expected that they were going to up the tempo. But when the ball comes in, we have to deal with it. We didn't and we are 1-0 down.

"You can tell I am disappointed. But I am sick of hearing unlucky. That is why we are where we are in the league - I don't know how many times I have heard that since I have come here. Played well and not won… until we change that attitude and become more ruthless then it is always going to be a struggle."
