RELIEF FOR ROY

Posted on: Sat 31 Oct 2009

Roy Keane admitted his team didn't play that well against Derby but welcomed the first three points of the season.

David Wright's second-half header was enough to beat the Rams in a close encounter at Portman Road as Blues ended that 14 match run without a victory.

"That is probably the worst we have played for the last four or five weeks. It wasn't a pretty performance but we'll obviously take the points," the Town boss told the Club website.

"We started slowly and when you do that, it can be hard to get going. We were waiting for something to happen, instead of making it happen.

"I'm not sure what Wrighty was doing there but he got among 6ft 4in defenders and got his head on it. He gambled and we needed someone to do something different.

"We didn't play well but the substitutes made a difference in the second-half and we perhaps just edged it.

" I'm pleased for the fans because they deserved that. It's nice to get that first win but we know we have got a long way to go yet and have to look to move on from this, starting at Reading next week."
