Delighted with win in dismal conditions
WE were all obviously thrilled to get a great win under our belts on Tuesday night.
It was always going to be a tough place for us to go but – at the second time of asking (Saturday's tie was postponed) – we got to play and got the right result.

It was the worst pitch I have actually seen a game played on, ice, snow – it was rock hard.
It must have been touch and go as to whether it would be on but we are naturally happy that it was on.
We were delighted to get a clean sheet and it was also pleasing for Jerome to get off the mark.
He looks a good addition to the squad, someone who is still looking for fitness but a player who can win games.
Indeed, it was nice to see the bench looking healthier on Tuesday night with Jay Smith, Alex Rodman and Nick Wright also on there along with myself.
The Guiseley win means that we are now in the last eight of the FA Trophy with a trip to Cambridge United or Salisbury next up.
Whoever we have to play, it will be tough and if we are to reach Wembley this season, we will have to do it the hard way.
But we don't fear anyone – home or away – and when that cup tie comes around we will be fully focused.
But, in the meantime, attention has to move away from dreams of Wembley and onto the Conference.
For me, league points are still a priority and I haven't given up on the prospects of getting into the play-offs.
This is a massive month for us but it has got off to a great start with the Guiseley win.
Now we face Stevenage and Wrexham and they are challenging games.
But we are capable of getting points out of both of those games – as I have said, we don't fear anyone in this league.
