Sheffield got booed off at half-time and there were boos when they came off at the end and that tells me something.

“I thought every player on our team played particularly well and we had opportunities to score and we should have definitely come in at half-time ahead.

“We played our way back into the game and had chances to score throughout the game.”

Gregory added: “I was delighted with the overall performance and we should take heart from that and take it into the rest of the season.”
