Daddy Grabban looking to get back on goal trail

08 March 2012 13:07
Striker Lewis Grabban scored his first goal in over two months in Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Crewe and is urging the fans to back the team for a final play-off push.

Grabs spoke after Tuesdays match and was thrilled to be back on the scoresheet and dedicate his goal to his daugher who was born on Sunday.

He said: "It was nice to get back on the scoresheet after a while. I wasn't too worried but as a forward you want to be scoring goals. I played a bit of a different role and I wasn't out and out on the wing, I played a bit more advanced. We passed it well, worked well and it was probably one of our better performances all season.

"We've got to keep progressing now and we want to play exactly the same come Saturday. We've still got to aim for the play-offs because you never know what's possible. The fans have got to keep faith in us and support us and hopefully we will repay them."

Meanwhile winger Gareth Evans got through 75 minutes of the reserves goalless draw against Bradford yesterday, in a game which featured loan keeper Jamie Annerson and former defender Guy Branston in City's line up.

Scott Griffiths is back in training after missing Tuesdays game due to a knock and personal problems.
