DAVID Dunn on taking a point from a hard-fought derby:

"You can never underestimate a point away at Rochdale. I thought it was a typical derby with tackles flying in. Of course we want to be better on the ball, but Keith Hill's teams are always hard to play against.

“In derbies, it isn't all about pretty football. It is about winning first and second balls and competing and trying to get the better of your opponent. It was disappointing not to score, but overall I don't think we should underestimate coming here and getting a point.

“We were perhaps a little bit disappointed with how we did with the ball, but Rochdale make it hard.

“Keith's teams always press high up the pitch and make it difficult for you. At times, with a bit of luck and more clinical finishing, we might have nicked one. Today wasn't the day.”
