Everythings negative... - Robbo

The Millers were undone by a 7 minute hat-trick by Chris Dagnall in the last ten minutes.
However speaking to the official website, Robbo slated his players as second best.
"We got everything we deserved, we were second best throughout. We didn't perform brilliantly as the two teams were edgy to start and the pressure should be off us. They are going for the play-offs with games in hand and they have to win them all but we handed it to them in the end." he said.
"With probably 15 minutes to go Dagnall came on and he hasn't played a game for a year but he looked as if he hasn't been away with his hat-trick. His finishing was excellent but we allowed them time on the ball to get crosses in, turn inside us and pick the spot, we never get given goals like that."
"From 1-0 up to really looking at maybe a draw we looked in control but we couldn't cope with Dagnall's movement. For me it was embarrassing to watch no matter what is going on at the club, it has got to be different for the last games of the season as I am not prepared to watch that for much longer. It's goodbye to the play-offs and with everything that has happened this week it's easy to use that as an excuse with people feeling sorry for themselves, you could see that."
"We had taken the lead and looked in control and to a point they could have gone in front as they had some decent chances so we could easily gone in at half time 2-1 down."
"It was a disappointing end to a game from which we might have taken a point but the last 15 minutes was very poor. The atmosphere in the changing room is very quiet and we have to get back to winning ways again, we look as if we are a soft centre, they wanted the result more than us at times."
"I will have to have a good look at things before the next game, all the things around the club at the moment are negative and it's easy to get sucked into that. We all have to be strong mentally. It's a big challenge as today we showed we can't cope with it against the sides who are pushing for promotion while we have looked like pretenders."
