“We came here to try to get the win.

“No matter how we got it we just had to get the win. We didn’t come to try to score five or six.

“At 1-1 the crowd got behind them and they pinned us in. We got the goal and it was a shame we could not get some more.

“It’s always hard coming to an away game in the FA Cup, especially when they are top of the league!

“We’re back to our winning ways and hopefully we can do the same in the league. We’re a confident team but the fact we havent been scoring gets into your mind.

“Crawley have a good history in the FA Cup and this year we’ve got a good squad so hopefully we’ll go on a good run again.

“When I came to Crawley I’d fallen out of love with football and wasn’t the fittest.

“Now I’ve got the chance to play and am enjoying my football. I was disappointed to be on the bench. I’ve now scored four goals in six starts so hopefully I’m sending a message to the Gaffer that if he picks me I’ll score!”
