Staunton: Players did it themselves

Staunton and assistant Kevin Richardson were installed as permanent replacements for Colin Todd and Dean Windass earlier this month and after a full week's training oversaw victory on Saturday in their first home game in charge. Staunton said: "What we've done is increase the tempo in training. We've put ideas into their heads and we've put demands on people, and that's it. The players have gone out and done it for themselves. "Myself and Kevin can only tell them so much based on our own experiences. You can demand of them certain things, but once they're on the pitch it's up to them so they deserve all the credit. "They've taken on board everything, they worked hard in training and that showed. But we can get fitter and better."
