“It gets you to 56 points. You’re going to be in the top half, you’ve got a game in hand and you can see a really strong finish to the season.
“I still think we can but it was a missed opportunity.
“We felt it was a game we could win and when you go 2-0 up after half an hour you’re thinking you’ve got a hell of a chance.
“But the first goal for them is the one that changed the whole game.”

“It was going to be difficult but if we beat Bury it becomes five games and four of them are at home,” he said.
“It would have been unbelievably hard but you just never know in football when you get that momentum.
“It would have been four wins in five.
“It was always going to be difficult. We’ve left it too late to find consistency, particularly turning draws into wins.”
Ferguson confirmed Mathieu Baudry missed the game with a hamstring strain but expects him to be fit to face Oxford United on Saturday.
