Swansea 1 Millwall 2 - Manager Reactions
What the two managers had to say after the Swans unbeaten record was taken by Millwall
Roberto Martinez
"Probably we lost a bit of focus because of the circumstances surrounding the game," said Martinez.
"I feared that beforehand because of the club record and the old manager coming back."
Kenny Jackett
"We played very well, this was the best performance since I have come to Millwall. We were very disciplined, strong and had a real determined look about us.
Hopefully this is something we can build on. At times our midfield has not been strong enough this season, but we were dogged and strong tonight.
We can't afford to sit back though and hopefully this is something to build on. We have got a game at Yeovil on Tuesday and whilst this is a very good victory that we deserved, we have to focus on the next match now."

Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v MillwallGlyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and
wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
