The Sky Blues boss said that while he didn’t want to be “over-critical” of his patched-up team, he felt that the performance “wasn’t good enough in some areas”.

Ferguson hopes to have a number of first team regulars available for selection for Saturday’s home Danske Bank Premiership game against Glentoran.
