Eddie Howe was upset with the way Bournemouth spurned a three-goal lead in the 3-3 draw with Notts County.

Josh McQuoid's brace and a Anton Robinson strike had put Bournemouth 3-0 ahead inside the opening half hour but Ben Burgess hit back to give County hope before Craig Westcarr and Kevin Smith struck in stoppage time to earn a draw.

He added: "We have made some poor decisions and that's cost us.

"I didn't think we played well really, even first half. We scored but we weren't fantastic, a little bit below what we normally are.

"But when you are 3-0 up you take it. They got a goal back straight away to make it 3-1 and that put a little bit of doubt in out minds.

"But we were comfortable second half and then we just went a little bit ragged the last 10 minutes. We should have seen it out and had chances to make it four."
