Yeah, look, it was a big result for us.
It was a big performance, clean sheet and a win, three points.
So we're...
Let's be honest, we've chucked points away over the last couple of weeks, so we needed to win tonight.
The lads certainly responded, played a game to the letter of the law, the blueprint we gave them, they stuck to it.
I thought they were impressive.
First half, we were a little bit sloppy, a little bit nervy, I think.
We'll have to look back, but I just felt there was times to make passes, there was times in the first half to put a foot on the ball.
Just bring a bit of calmness, a bit of cool, calm collectedness to our play.
And we didn't.
We looked a little bit nervy.
So we should have really been two up as well through the header off the corner.
Was it canny?
And those little moments, I just felt, oh, here we go again.
Second half, we've come out of the blocks really, really fast again.
We'd won it two chances.
But then we lost our way.
We lost our way.
We stopped doing what we were good at.
We ran out of legs and we had to make some changes and I thought the subs had a huge, huge impact coming off the bench and that's all we ask of them, have that impact, go out and help the team and they helped us tonight, they got us over the line.
