Preston boss Ryan Lowe:
"There was a lack of quality today on the pitch and in front of goal, it wasn't for a lack of trying but you have to make your chances count when you are on top and we didn't.
"It's a poor goal to concede, which is disappointing after keeping the back door shut for so long. Fair play to Birmingham because they got their goal and dug deep to get the three points and we didn't dig deep enough to get something.
"We know we need to find that little bit of quality to score, I believe the lads we have at the club have got the quality to score goals. We are creating chances. I will speak to the strikers and try and instil some belief into them that they will score goals and I'm sure they will. I sensed a bit of tiredness after all the travelling but we don't want to make excuses.
"I have just spoken to the referee, he sent me off at the end because I was frustrated with some of the decisions. I apologised for what I said but I am still disappointed in some of the decisions."
Birmingham City manager John Eustace told BBC WM 95.6:
"I think the performances this season have been good but we haven't got our just rewards, so today to keep a clean sheet against an excellent team who haven't conceded a goal this season is full credit to the group and I'm very, very proud.
"We've been doing a lot of hard work on the training field working solidly on the patterns of play with both wing backs supporting the attack, so for it to come out in the game today when we scored was pleasing.
"A lots of things have been said about this group and the club, but people have to realise that this team is starting again.
"There's going to be lots more dark and miserable days ahead but the way we get through it is together and to get positive results like today."
