Roberto Martinez

“It’s a huge win for us, a huge win,” he beamed.

“I’m looking at our points tally and we have 82 before the end of April. To go into April with more than 80 points is a fantastic achievement.

“The attitude and the way we played out there is what we are looking for. We need to maintain our standards for the last six games and, if we do that, we will definitely get what we deserve.

“It was very difficult conditions out there and conceding the goal so early made it extra difficult.

“But, when you come to a place like this and get a result, it shows you all the attributes you need to be successful over a season.”

Danny Wilson

''The referee has got to stand up and be counted and admit that he got an important decision wrong.

''He got it awfully wrong because there was nothing wrong with the tackle.

''The penalty decision took the wind out of our sails at a time when the game could have gone either way.

''It gave us a mountain to climb and you just can't do anything about decisions like that when they go against you.''
