Last updated : 03 December 2011 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City manager Andy Thorn was livid at the way the Sky Blues gave Portsmouth two goals this afternoon at Fratton Park.

Speaking to the Press Association, Thorn said:  "You can't defend the way we are defending at the moment. We just keep giving ourselves mountains to climb and the two goals were a disgrace.

"They're the sort of goals you see in Under-11 football, so I'm not too happy about our defending. I thought it was atrocious all afternoon. The first one was like something out of the circus. It was just a joke."

He added: "We're weak-minded defensively. It's disappointing because they're a good set of lads. They try really hard, but keep shooting themselves in the foot."
