He said "The first half in particular we dominated the game.  We had a bad start, a goal down in 32 seconds but after that I thought we played some good football.  We made some good chances and at half-time were well ahead.  Even in the second half I thought there was only one team that was going to score and I thought it would be us.  However we haven't defended well - twice - and conceded two goals so 3-1.  It's a difficult score to take because I thought we dominated the game for long spells so I'm very, very upset.

We conceded another three goals at home which is disappointing of course, having not conceded last week.  We only have ourselves to blame.  It'll be down to me, I'll be the one to take the blame and at the end of the day I take responsibility.  Our form since I've came here has been disappointing; we haven't won as many games at home as we should have done, or wanted to.  Away from home doesn't seem to be a problem, it's something that we have to change and change pretty quick.  We're away to Raith Rovers on Tuesday and then we have Dunfermline back here on Saturday, obviously we are looking to pick up maximum points from those two games.  It's very disappointing because we won last week and kept a clean sheet against our local rivals and we thought that we could make progress this week and it's disappointing that we haven't.

I thought we played some good football today and played well.  But if you don't score when you're on top and make the chances, they come back to haunt you as they have today.  It's bitterly disappointing because we've lost a game that we felt we should have got at least a point out of, if not three.  We created good opportunities; it's just that final chance, that final effort that's not going in for us at the moment."
