" What we have got to take from Saturday is heart that we can sustain a performance over 90 minutes, or certainly the majority of the game. Because you are never going to get the whole of the game going your own way. I think the belief that is coming and the confidence is coming through the team.
" Remember that there are not that many different players in there, they are the same players that were finding results, not performances, results hard to come by at the start of the season. But I think at the moment because of the run we are on. We have talked about this, that you do get the slight rub of the green and I was relieved when the fifth one went in.
" That is me as a manager, I don't talk like you talk, I talk like a manager should talk. I am not comfortable until we have won the game and the final whistle has been blown. But at 5-0 up with 15 minutes to go you have generally got a decent chance of coming out with those three points, and we did it.
" I don't care who gets the goals, I absolutely don't care, I wouldn't be bothered if somebody got all five. I have been telling you all season that we have got goals all across the team. We would love somebody to get 30 goals, if we can't get somebody to score 30 goals then it is nice to have people chipping in with 11 or 12.
" We have got so called midfield players scoring a lot of goals, so it is great for us. We like Joe (Anyinsah), we have told you before that that winger cum centre-forward is doing not bad.
" The only confidence I can have at the moment is the way that the team are performing and the way that their attitude and their determination is. That is the only confidence I can have, I can't account for how Huddersfield can play. "
" All I can do is prepare our team the best we can. At the minute the preparation work seems to be going well, the performances seem to be full of determination and we are getting results through good football, and we hope to continue that.
" We hope to get some of the crowd from Leeds back and I was thinking maybe 6,000 or 7,000 for the MK Dons game. Then when you look at the run of games that they have had, the Leeds game, Saturday's game, tomorrow's game and I think Wembley tickets go on sale on Friday. You have to show sympathy to the fans, we want them through the door and obviously they know that.
" The atmosphere against Leeds was brilliant, we turned Saturday into a good atmosphere but financial situations at the moment are tough. There is a big burden on them and with the games coming up and getting cancelled, instead of having one game every fortnight they have had three games in a week and cup final tickets to buy and trains to book and hotels to book and all that.
" So they have got some genuine excuses have the fans because it is so hard for them financially. But the more that come through the door, absolutely fantastic for us, the better. But all we can do is produce performances like that and hope they buy into what we are doing. I think some are and certainly if this situation was different in terms of the games were a bit more spread out then I am sure the gates would improve.
" We are building a club that is going to go forward, not just this season but for next season and the season after. Things are looking good because we believe we have got quality in the squad, what we need then is belief, support and the confidence that winning games does to you, and I think we are going to get better."
