Martin Paterson: 'We should have beaten Derby'

Huddersfield striker Martin Paterson said his side should have beaten Derby County after he scored the equaliser in a 1-1 draw at John Smith's stadium.

Huddersfield striker Martin Paterson said his side should have beaten Derby County after he scored the equaliser in a 1-1 draw at the John Smith's stadium.

Paterson's goal denied the Rams an eighth league win in a row.

He told Huddersfield's official website: "That goal came and hopefully that will settle us down, because in the grand scheme of things a point against Derby, who are up near the top of the league is a good one.

"However, we possibly should have won it.

"I think the goal came too late; if it had been 10 minutes earlier we might have gone on and won."

Paterson also reserved praise for substitute Duane Holmes, who set him up for the goal.

"We all know how talented Duane is, but he's only 19 and you have to be careful," he said. "If you use him too much and things don't go well his head could drop and it could make things difficult. However, I think the fans here have an exciting time ahead of them, because I'd pay to watch him every week."

Huddersfield entertain Yeovil in their next league game on Sunday.
