Blackpool boss gives his verdict on red card in 2-1 loss to Millwall
“I’ve got no complaints with the red card, ball up to Matt Smith, he wins the flick on, we’re actually in a good position, we protect the space in behind him well. Callum is running one way, it’s gone the opposite side of him and as he’s turning Afobe has reacted quickly and he’s pulled him down.
“It looks like two points from five matches, and we haven’t won and really doom and gloom, but we’ve actually played really well and if we keep performing like we have done today, it would help if we had 11 on the pitch, but we will win games at this level. It’s hard to feel like that at this moment, but we’ve got to remember we’re only five games into the season and have lots of game to go and I’m confident in the group of players I’ve got.
“I praise them for effort and application, we showed a decent bit of ability on the ball and the togetherness we show.
“We never give up, never. We did that against Bournemouth when we were two down, we came back and drew 2-2, we go right to the end of the game, and today we showed equally as good spirit, you just don’t have the same feeling because you’ve got no reward, but it’s equally the same amount of passion today as there was last week against Bournemouth.”
