Dean Saunders admits: ‘We should have scored more goals’


Izale McLeod headed Reds into the lead in the 14th minute and this was added to after 33 minutes with a good finish by Richard Wood.
The result means Crawley rose up to 19th in the table having amassed 13 points out of a possible 18 in their last six matches.

“It was a great performance but more importantly it is a great three points and looking at it, I think a few other results have gone our way as well.
“We went over the reason why we didn’t start well at Crewe and we got those ironed out and this was a vast improvement.
“We started well and Dean Morgan could have scored early on and then Izale does score. It’s a great cross from Gavin Tomlin and Izale McLeod gets across the front post which you are taught as a kid. It was a great header and that put us on our way.

“That’s four wins, a draw and a defeat in the last six games so the players are doing great - they are all battling.”
