Burnley boss Sean Dyche offered no excuses after their shock FA Cup defeat to Lincoln.
Sean Raggett's late winner ensured Lincoln became the first non-league club to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals since 1914.
Dyche, who as a player was part of Chesterfield's shock run to the semi-finals in 1997, said of his side's loss: "We've unfortunately played a part in Lincoln's fairytale and obviously we didn't want to do that.
"There can be no excuses. I've been on the other side, on a team that had to find a way to win a game in this competition and we did that back in the day.
"They found a way to find a result and that is what football is about. You have to find a way.
"I don't think we were near our levels, but still enough to get the job done - if we take our chances. We had to do that and didn't, and they got their one chance. It's one of those things."
