Abbott waxes lyrical over Dobie

Dobie justified his recall to the side with a classic header two minutes from time to send the Cumbrians into the second round. The striker's late show drew praise from Abbott who admitted that his strikers have been under pressure after a faltering pre-season and defeat at home in their opening league fixture. Abbott said: "I told Scott to give me honesty and a performance and the goals will come. And now he's been rewarded. "He got his goal and I'm really pleased for him. It was a brilliant cross from David Raven and a perfect centre-forward's goal. "Scott was disappointed he didn't start on Saturday but he has put in a real Scott Dobie performance and we know what we are going to get with Scott."
