Q: Obviously a tremendous result at Leicester and great resolve in holding out at the end and then you allowed yourself to the fist pump to the crowd.But can we now take all that into the Riverside where our home record hasn't been so good recently. Can we take it forward into the home game against Plymouth?

MC:
I wish I had the answer for you and just say yes. I wish it was as easy as that. The pleasing thing last week was the spirit. I think we had a few setbacks leading up to the game. We had a couple of extra in midweek in terms of injuries and the boys really stuck together. It is a close group anyway. There are a few boys in there that have hardly played together really. Paddy coming back into the team who hadn't played with Luke Ayling. Riley coming back and hadn't played an awful lot and hadn't played with Finn. Because by the time Riley had come back Finn had been here for a number of weeks. Lewis first game. Sammy coming back in. So, there were quite a few new links. So to come back and show that spirit and stick together, that is not easy to do. And I have seen it go the other way quite a few times as well. So that was the most pleasing thing. Which gives me a lot of confidence moving forward that even in the tougher times the boys have got that in them to stick together. We need to show that and we need to pickup more points at home as well and create that feeling at the Riverside.
