Gary Bowyer "hugely disappointed" by Blackburn Rovers defeat

Blackburn Rovers boss Gary Bowyer has admitted that he is "hugely disappointed" by his side's 2-1 defeat at home to Norwich City.

Bradley Johnson scored the winner six minutes from time at Ewood Park last night as Rovers saw their winless run in the Championship extended to three games.

While he concedes that the decisive goal was impressive, Bowyer believes that his team deserved something out of the match.

"Sometimes you have to put your hands up and say what a wonderful strike it was," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "Hugely disappointing for us of course because we put a huge amount of effort into the game. At 2-1 down we were still fighting at the end but it didn't quite drop for us at the death."

The result has left Blackburn in 10th place in the Championship table, 15 points adrift of the playoff positions.
