Schumacher - whose side stay top of League One - admitted: “We didn’t play well. I thought Port Vale deserved the win they were the better team probably throughout the game.
“It was one of those nights that was frustrating.
“We didn’t play great, didn’t look like us but we still created some good chances that we didn’t manage to take so yeah frustrating.
“I just felt us as a team – as a whole – we were just a bit flat.
“We never gave this crowd anything to get going for and we probably got what we deserved in the game.
“That might happen every now and again when you are on a run like this, a performance like that gets highlighted.
“We haven’t lost in the league in four and a bit months whatever it is, since the middle of August, so I can’t really put my finger on it.
“But the players understand that. We didn’t do the basics well enough and that’s what has got us to the top of the league.
“We came off it and we got punished.
“Port Vale played well. They had a little bit of energy and the second ball seemed to always keep falling to them and that pattern in the first half gave them the upper hand.”
