Matt has more cause than anyone to do just that, though; robbed of what would have been his second goal of the season by the width of a post against Millwall, had his effort gone in it would probably have sealed the win.
"It probably would have finished off the game if I had scored but it wasn't to be and there is nothing you can do about it - it is gone now; we didn't play well in the second half and it is one of those things," he says.
"I don't really know what went wrong; I don't know if it was the manager changing it at half time - we haven't really got any excuses.
"In the first half we were the better side but in the second half we weren't - and were struggling to find reasons why.
"On the pitch it was a fairly fair game and both sides wanted to win but Trevor was not very happy after Millwall - and rightly so, because we let three points slip."
"He was asking why we didn't play well and we couldn't really put a finger on it to be honest - we didn't do well enough for some reason.
"We want to be on top; that is where we should be and we must win these two games before the international break.
"Tonight is a big game which we are looking forward to, though, and we are confident."
