PHIL Parkinson praised his teams effort, but admitted his side ultimately lacked the cutting edge to take anything out of their derby clash with Blackburn Rovers.

Bolton dominated the second half but found Tony Mowbray’s side too difficult a nut to crack, and have now scored just two goals in their last six games.
