I think the other thing is that I take responsibility for this result today, it was a no performance from my team and this cannot happens in this way and I'm only Faye say the best I've seen the Dana Stadium was beside the opponent was the the crowd that was staying in the in the stadium our crowd that was staying in the stadium the guys they were staying here how they act is more than we deserve today and I say apologize for this no performance today"

Reporter "the red card itself what's your opinion of that"
Ralph "I haven't seen it don't know the goal is the first goal was started with the path back that is not possible in this moment you cannot play back here in this in this pressing situation but I don't know if it suppose a red card or not opportunity whata did you say is the players at halftime at five kneel down yeah we made to change this and try to have a second half atheltic conceding a goal but it helps not really was of the to substitute didn't make us most level eyes"
Reporter "Even allowing for the fact you down to ten was that good enough from Southampton tonight"
