IAN HOLLOWAY

"It was a much better second half performance, we seemed to forget about our game plan,

"I thought their front two caused us all sorts of problems and they had the best chance of the first half really, when Alan Judge slipped or missed or whatever. (Yannick) Bolasie was a handful.

"I managed to remind them what I wanted at half time and in the second half we settled down and got a couple of breakaway efforts that were clinically finished off - and that makes the difference.".

"Adam is a very good player," Holloway added. "I thought we passed the ball around much better in the second half, we moved them around."

"Of course I am disappointed, we could have been 2-0 ahead at half time and just didn't come out on fire in the second half," said Mariner, who now finds his side six points adrift of safety.

"We lost our skipper early on and still took the game to them. Ollie has got a decent side, they are up there looking at the play offs and we gave as good as we got.

"We had a chance just before they scored when young Joe Mason had a volley.

"If he had connected that would have been 1-1 but instead they go up the other end and score. That's football but I remain positive and we have got to keep fighting - and we will.

"We have got Barnsley here on Tuesday night and we go again."
