"We have become too easy to beat. The first two goals were too simple and unless we eradicate mistakes the club will never go forward.

"Our defending has deteriorated badly and the manner of that defending has been horrible. We have lost our way at the back and now it definitely needs freshening up.

"The standards of defending are the worst they have been since I joined the club and we are shipping goals all over the place. We can still make a play-off challenge but only if I can sort the defence out."


Dennis Wise

"It's a fantastic result and we played very well.

"It was only after they equalised when we were briefly put under pressure. We needed a little bit of luck and that first goal gave us the break we needed.

"The second goal was well worked and the third one killed them off.

"Maybe I should have played more often, but I wanted to see exactly what I have at the club, but being on the pitch does help because I can use my experience to change things around if necessary."
