500 days between away wins in the Premier League, something I`d hope the team will not contemplate putting us through again.
The win at Stoke, yesterday, has seen some of the pressure on Mark Hughes lifted; we`re now out of the bottom three and ready to move on.
After the game, in his post match press conference, Mark spoke about this perpetual desire to put somebody`s name in the frame for the sack, remarking,
“This week it seems to have been me, next week it will be someone else.”
“It`s not nice when it lands on your doorstep so it was nice to win.”
“I didn`t feel the need to speak to the board. I have great support from Alistair Mackintosh. And I spoke to the chairman on Monday and he`s very supportive. They understand where we are and what we need.”
And as for the result,
“This could be a season-defining win for is. We were immense.”
We were good, defensively, but there`s no denying those two early goals from Chris Baird set it all up rather nicely!
