West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Mowbray admitted that his side were not good enough to deserve anything other than a local derby defeat by his old club Coventry City.
"We've lost late goals in games when we felt we should have been winning, and found a way to lose or drop points, but that wasn't the case this time," he said.
"We've lost a little of our normal intensity. But it's football. You have to take it on the chin."
Albion are now six points shy of the play-off places, after once again failing to win away from The Hawthorns.
