Speaking after Tuesday evening's encounter at Craven Cottage, visiting Manager Brian Laws was disappointed in the nature of his side's defeat:
"Luck has not been on our side tonight," he explained. "We did not particularly play well but I thought their first two goals were offside.
"The TV replays show the referee and linesman got it wrong. They are important decisions for us. We need any help we can get.
"Our performance was not up to the standard we set on Saturday against West Ham.
"We shot ourselves in the foot with the first goal because we could have cleared our lines, but the second phase of play was offside.
"But if the referee and linesman get it right, it is no goal. One or two heads dropped but we cannot carry anybody.
"The two goals coming in quick succession, knocked the stuffing out of us.
"We know our away form is not great but we will just have to pick ourselves up.
"We have got to keep working with the players, continue trying to change their mindset and that's what we will do. We will get there.
"There are plenty of games left and nobody is panicking. We know what's at stake and we certainly know what we have to do to stay in the Premier League. We have every confidence in ourselves that we will achieve that."
