Cardiff City boss Brian Barry-Murphy described his side’s 3-1 defeat at Blackpool as a «very disappointing result».
The Bluebirds could not capitalise on a number of first half chances and Ashley Fletcher’s two goals and a third from Tom Bloxham put paid to their hopes before Yusuf Salech’s late consolation.
Barry-Murphy was pleased with the first half and the chances that his side created but acknowledged that the defending was not good enough in the second half.
«We created a lot of chances throughout the course of the game,» Barry-Murphy said.
«The way that we play and the way we attack is not an excuse for us to defend the moments we had to defend in the manner we did.
«We’ve got to be as disciplined a team in defence as we are in attack and today we weren’t.
«Today wasn’t good enough – we have to swallow that today, accept it, feel the pain of it and come back stronger and be better.»
