Derek McInnes: 'The players should be embarrassed'

Bristol City boss Derek McInnes has criticised his players, insisting that they should be embarrassed about their 2-0 defeat to Derby County this afternoon.

McInnes saw his side concede two first-half goals at Ashton Gate and never recover.

The Scot claimed that the fans of the club deserve better than the performance shown by his players and admitted his frustration with the way they conceded the goals.

"The goals came in the space of three minutes. We seem to be vulnerable when we concede once and that showed again," said McInnes.

"Once again the manner of the goals, free headers inside the penalty area, is poor.

"I thought the support was brilliant today. The players should be embarrassed, the fans deserve better."

The Robins lie just outside the relegation zone in 21st place in the Championship table.
