Gary Rowett frustrated after Birmingham City fail to beat Fulham

Gary Rowett rues missed opportunities as Birmingham only manage a draw at Fulham in the Championship.

Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett has claimed that his side should have picked up three points from their 1-1 draw at Fulham.

Hugo Rodallega gave the West London side an early lead at Craven Cottage before David Cotterill's free kick equalised for the Blues.

Rowett told reporters: "I don't think it was a fair result. We started a little bit slow, conceding a goal, which we were disappointed with. But we showed brilliant character getting back into the game with a great piece of quality from Dave Cotterill - which he does so often. And from there on in we were by far the better team in the first half.

"Yes we are pleased at the end to get the point after a couple of goal-mouth scrambles - but overall on the balance of play we should really have been coming away with the three points. Clayton [Donaldson] chested one down and put it over the top and he has had a free header in the box and there were two or three other excellent chances.

Birmingham, who are unbeaten in six Championship games, next face Millwall on Tuesday night.
