"They defended well, but other than a couple of efforts from (Jamie) Mackie we never really threatened.
"We know that we are in a dogfight.
"Clearly, the results haven't gone our way. but we'll play worse and get something from a game. Hopefully we can bounce back in the next game."
Wednesday boss Alan Irvine was understandably happier.
"The most important thing is that we won," Irvine said.
"Obviously we want to win and entertain and play attractive football, but at this moment we need to win.
"It's not what I'm aiming for in the long term, but I'll take it right at this moment.
"We need seven more wins to make sure we're in this division next season and I'll take seven more horrible ones like that if I have to.
"The finishes were excellent, although our play wasn't always pretty, I think we deserved it in the end.
"They didn't create too many chances in the second half, so we have to be happy with that."
