Burley on Loss - Ipswich Town News
Town boss George Burley described Sunday's first half performance at Stoke as "unacceptable", however, he felt that after the Blues had got back on terms they would go on to win.
The underfire Blues' manager said after the game: "Our first half performance was unacceptable. We showed no passion or appetite and that was extremely disappointing.
"After we scored I felt confident we would go on and win, but it was not to be and we have to pick ourselves up and get on with it."
