SEAN Dyche felt Nathan Collins was unlucky to be sent off as Burnley suffered a 2-0 defeat at Brentford. Dyche admits it is a frustrating result to take but insists his side still have a chance of beating the drop.

Sean Dyche said: “It’s just a reality, it’s not a big blow, there’s still 11 matches to go. We know the Premier League well, the reality is that that happens if you don’t get the details right. I must say it was a fantastic cross from a very good player, but we still should have dealt with it. Then it was a soft penalty and I don’t think anyone understands why it’s a red card. But 10 games ago we were written off and we are still in there fighting. We were not a million miles away with that performance. There is a big frustration, and when you can’t find a win then don’t lose. That is what it felt like today.”

The result leaves Dyche’s men 18th in the Premier League table – a point behind Everton, who face Wolves tomorrow afternoon. The Clarets now have a three-week break before they welcome leaders Manchester City to Turf Moor on Saturday, April 2.
