Steve Coppell

"It was margins throughout the game.

"We were thankful to score the goal and that gave us the incentive to hang on in the second half."

"It's just difficult to know where we are at with just four games gone.

"It was difficult to be conclusive after three games but this has shown we can compete.

"We are loving it, enjoying it. You work so hard to be up against these players and go to these stadiums. We are going to try and enjoy it anyway."


Stuart Pearce

"We are disappointed. I thought it was the best we played this season.

"But that is the margins in the Premiership if you don't take your chances, we passed it around well but you have to take your chances."
