"I am so upset, I haven't felt like this after a game for a long time, I feel like crying.
We should be beating Walsall at home comfortably. They rarely threatened and we have gifted them three points.
The first goal was bad enough but the second was calamitious defending. We had seven players on off-days and I won't tolerate that again. We had no spark.
I had hoped to close the gap on the leaders but now they are further away. No disrespect to them, but they are not the best team who have come here yet they have left with a win. That's perhaps why they are leaders.
I can't give my players any credit because they haven't gone and won a game that was so easy to win it was untrue. We are comfortably a better side than Walsall, at home. To draw would have been a disaster, but to lose, words fail me.
We gave them too much respect for the first 10 to 15 minutes, and it was rank bad defending (for the goals). We didn't have any spark in our play. We weren't bright enough. We didn't put them under any pressure. We put ourselves under pressure."
