Managers Reaction
Millwall’s Gary Rowett: “I thought young Tyler Burey was outstanding when he came on and he was our best player by a million miles. With a change of formation, I think he feels it’s difficult for him to show his best quality. But I think today proves how he could do it. He’s got real talent. He just gave us a spark when we looked like we needed something. In the last couple of weeks, I’ve noticed he’s a lot more focused. Since his contract’s been sorted he really seems desperate now to kick on.”
Coventry’s Mark Robins: “We let them back into the game. Simon knows he shouldn’t come for it. He can just catch it on his line, similarly to the game up at Sunderland. It just got the crowd up and we were a little bit fortunate coming in 2-1. The two bookings are avoidable and he’s definitely let us down, there are no two ways about it. It cost us the game today. It’s been a tight game but it shouldn’t have been a tight game. We should’ve seen it out.”
