"We are very disappointed with that and we did not play well at all in the second half. We let Burnley have the initiative just before the break and allowed them to carry on.
"We did not defend well as a team at all although I have to say that is the first time I have ever seen a player ordered off the field because his captain's armband was not on. It was a ridiculous decision and - wouldn't you know it - they scored while he was stood waiting to come back on. I have never, ever seen that at all and it was absolutely disgraceful.
"I have had some words with the referee but he should have stopped the game if he wanted and allowed the physio on to sort it. It was absolutely disgraceful.
"To make things worse he then let Burnley take a free kick late on from nowhere near where it should have been taken from and we were caught out again. That is just nitpicking really and we should have defended better as a team. We did not close down and allowed them to put a lot of crosses into the box.
"We will brush ourselves down, work hard in training and be ready for Saturday".
