Brian Barry-Murphy spoke to the press following City’s 1-0 defeat to Burton Albion at Cardiff City Stadium.

“We’re all disappointed,” he began. “When you lose a game in that manner, it’s pretty sickening from a coach’s point of view.

“We created more chances than in any other game this season, but it doesn’t mean anything when you lose the game. 

"The frustration among the players and staff is evident - we need to turn that dominance into results and move forward.

“We want to be really productive and efficient in possession, but we weren't clinical enough tonight.”

Brian continued by stressing how setbacks can provide learning for his young side.

“It’s very natural for the dressing room to feel disappointed,” he said. “But it’s a very young team that will encounter plenty of different situations throughout the season. 

"While we’re frustrated tonight, we have to stay calm and keep improving our chances of winning games.”

Looking ahead to Saturday’s clash with Leyton Orient, the City boss emphasised that it’s an opportunity to bounce-back.

“I like the challenge of coming back here on Saturday. After the Bradford game, we went to Burnley and produced a performance of the highest level, then backed it up against Wigan.

“We’ve lost two games at home - that’s the reality - but now we have to show the fans that we can deliver a better performance than tonight.”
