We only had 11 experienced players so we had to work hard on Thursday and Friday to get a system going.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\">&#8220;I think that&#8217;s the first time we&#8217;ve come from behind at home to get something, so you can find positives and you can find negatives.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\">&#8220;Swansea had lots of the ball but if you look at the chances, it&#8217;s no contest<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\">&#8220;That&#8217;s been our story, in between the two boxes not too bad but it&#8217;s in the two 18-yard boxes that games are decided. We need to take chances when they come along.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Again, I think that&#8217;s their first shot on target they had and they scored. It seems when teams do get a shot on target it&#8217;s a goal. In terms of chances and pressure I thought we did very well but at this moment in time we&#8217;re not taking chances.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think we did enough to win the game. We did enough not to get beaten at Sheffield United, that&#8217;s for sure, and at Barnsley.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\">&#8220;We got a bit of good fortune but I think we are due a wee bit of luck<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\">&#8220;Willo&#8217;s worked hard, he got all over the park.
