Matt Gilks berates "two dropped points"

Gilks berates "two dropped points"

Blackpool goalkeeper Matt Gilks has slammed the late equaliser he conceded in the 2-2 draw with Blackburn Rovers.

The Tangerine looked on course to collect all three points, with first-half strikes from Thomas Ince and Dan Gosling coming either side of a Jordan Rhodes equaliser.

However, Steven Davies inadvertently headed past Gilks in the closing stages, much to the frustration of the shot-stopper who believes the result feels like a defeat.

He told the club's official website: "We gave a needless free-kick away and we didn't deal with the cross that came in.

"We actually feel like we've been beaten there. We definitely dropped two points.

"We're bitterly disappointed to concede like we did. The errors that we're making are costing us."

Despite the result, Paul Ince's men move up one place to fourth in the Championship, ahead of next week's visit to Nottingham Forest.
