Jason Tindall felt the home draw against Peterborough represented a missed opportunity to put pressure on the top six.

The Clarets needed a magnificent late goal from top scorer Jay Rodrigeuz to salvage a point after a second half of domination.

Burnley trailed to Paul Taylor's early strike in a disappointing first half display.

Jay saves the day

But after turning up the heat after the break, Assistant Manager Tindall felt the hosts did enough to win the game.

He admitted: "I guess that's a missed opportunity. It was still our aim to win the game, even at half time when we were a goal down.

"But the main thing is we haven't lost the game. We've only lost two in 12 now, which is a great run and if we can continue that form then who knows where that will take us.

"I thought we deserved to win the game though. We were disappointing in the first half, we know that.

"But we felt Peterborough's chances were mainly down to our sloppy play and individual mistakes.

"However, in the second half it was a terrific response to going behind and I felt we had more than enough chances to win the game."

Burnley's frustration at a second successive home draw masks a good recent run of home form - three wins and a draw from the last six - in tandem with superb away form.

Tindall added: "I think we have to be more consistent over longer spells, especially at home. You could see for 45 minutes in the second half it was constant pressure on the Peterborough goal and we need to do that for 80 or 90 minutes.

"But two months ago, I think we might have lost that game today.

"In the end Jay has produced a little bit of magic and come up with a spectacular goal and we are pleased we've got something out of the game.

"The conditions weren't ideal for spectators or players. But I don't think it would be right to blame the conditions.

"It was the same for both teams and you have to be professional enough to adapt."
