Judging it from a neutral turning up and saying who deserved to win, I don't think you'll find someone who said that we wouldn't be at least worthy of a point
It was like when we were on the ball it was almost like a touch-touch stand and watch where we are going to play it and then play it.

It's good to score goals and we're scoring goals at the minute, which is a plus for me.

Malky Mackay's agent is not a manager, and does not therefore belong on this thread. But.
football is a precarious business and Malky's decision to stay might not thereafter be matched by all the powers that be deciding that he should stay, so in some respects that's pretty much in the hands of other people.

Was reading the Richard Money business the other day. Are you not entertained and all that. Fair fucks

I shouldn't have to ask a professional footballer to go out and run around and try.

My time at Bramall Lane is well documented now. I am a great believer in looking forward and not back. People will have to buy the book to get my views.

I sarcastically clapped him because he hadn't given us a decision all day. That was obviously wrong of me but, by the same token, he decided that he wanted to be the bigger and better man and send me off to the stand.

You'd be a stupid, naïve man to think you've made something because you're sitting in the top six of the table.

We were excellent for 70 minutes, and we were excellent for 90 minutes last week and that won us the game, we've got to find that 20 minutes sometimes.
Mark Yates, Cheltenham Town, October 2013.
We've enough senior players on the pitch to make sure that it stays at 1-0. But if they got everything right, they wouldn't be here.
Aidy Boothroyd, Northampton Town, October 2013.

It's one of those victories that you don't want but you'll take.

1-0's a dangerous result.

I can't have a confident, compact, 'everybody in it together' football club if some supporters are shouting at me to get some of the players off who are 'rubbish'.They're not rubbish. They're exceptional people who are standing up to the challenges and the demands that I put in front of them. I never call my players rubbish and I wouldn't dare show them that lack of respect.

We believe that if you keep pushing up your performance levels and keep them at a high level, over time you will win plenty of football matches.
We are a 'town club' and a club that supports the town, and that link has become more authentic with the realities. They're not negative realities, they're just realities.

I said before all my players have flaws. That's why they play for Crawley.If they didn't have a flaw they're all good players and then they would go and play for somebody else.
