Parry: We deserved more

Tranmere manager Les Parry felt his side were unlucky not to progress to the third round of the Carling Cup after they lost 3-1 at home to Swansea.Dogged Rovers took the lead in the 22nd minute through Enoch Showunmi and looked like creating a surprise.But Cedric van der Gun and Scott Sinclair then scored within a minute of each other and Shefki Kuqi netted a third for Swansea in stoppage time.Parry said: "The score does not reflect the game. We played really well in the first half and created some good chances. Our keeper made only one real save."We will play a lot worse than that and win. The result was gutting for the lads. But we can take a lot of pluses, although a third successive defeat at home is hard to take."Parry explained why he named John Welsh as his new skipper in place of wantaway striker Ian Thomas-Moore, adding: "The situation with Thomas-Moore has dragged on since he made a transfer request. I thought that enough was enough and I had to do something, so I made a change in captaincy. John Welsh is one of the jokers in the pack, and is the ideal replacement."
