Robinson: “It was a deserved win and the 4-1 was important because it didn’t flatter us. The players were excellent. I didn’t think we were really on our A-Game in the last 10 minutes of the first half and, to be fair to the players, they were quite upset with their own performance at half-time, which is good. At the end with the hugs and the high-fives, we look like a team that is really together. We have arguments during the week and I like that; we question things and then it is down to the players to answer them on a Saturday."

Magennis: “Last week we played well in patches but it wasn’t our day to score the goals and we said after that game that we would correct it this week and that’s what we’ve done. It was a full, dominant performance against a very physical side. I knew with the players that we signed that the chances would be coming and it would be up to me to take them. Last week it wasn’t the case, but I managed to grab one today and next week I’m looking for two or three! I know that my teammates will make chances for me, so it’s up to me to take them.”
