Joey Barton said his players were frustrated not to score more goals as Bristol Rovers romped to a 4-0 win over 10-man Burton Albion at the Pirelli Stadium on Saturday.
Conor O'Shaughnessy's foul on Aaron Collins inside 30 seconds denied a clear goalscoring opportunity and the Burton defender was shown a straight red card. From the resulting free-kick, Antony Evans curled Rovers into the lead and they were dominant from there.
James Connolly doubled the lead by stabbing home Evans' cross and Aaron Collins had Rovers four in front by half time with a superb brace.
