The victory keeps Scunthorpe in the play-off positions and looking for a quick return to the second tier of English football, and manager Nigel Adkins is pleased with his side's form at Glanford Park.[LNB]"That's six points out of six from our last two home games and two clean sheets," said Adkins. "It keeps us in the top six and that is what it is all about at this stage of the season.[LNB]"We played some tremendous stuff in the first half but I was just beginning to wonder if it was going to be one of those days when nothing would go in for us.[LNB]"But then up popped Gary Hooper again for us and in the second half it was all about making sure we didn't make any mistakes to allow Brighton back into the game.[LNB]"Credit to the players they have had a spell where they have been playing twice a week for a long time and it is difficult to keep playing at a high tempo."[LNB][LNB]
