Robins gave the press conference the latest on O'Grady's injury first; "He has a really bad cut to his head that is right down to his skull so we just hope he is OK as it isn't a nice injury at all. We will have to wait and see how it settles down, he is at hospital "

Lewis is more seriously injured however, he also has a severe cut to his head but also has a suspected fractured collar bone.
Looking at the game, Robins told MillersWorld; "We had the worst possible start to the second half; we had gone in at half time and they had caused us many problems. But we put ourselves sunder so much pressure at times, they found a way behind Hursty in the first attack of the second half, we were looking to get the ball away from the resulting corner but they stuck it into the net."

"It was very disappointing as we do work on those things, we let their lad go free and Bentley is good in the air. Then there was not real answer as we had two kids up front in Marc Newsham and Jamie Yates so we desperately needed to get them some help."

"It was either Ryan Cresswell Ian Sharps to move up there but we didn't want to disturb the back four so it was Cresswell and he gave us that extra dimension - he was absolutely different class."

"The two lads off him, we know what they can do when they get that help up there, so it gives us food for thought. Mark Hudson came on as well and gave a significant contribution so it was very pleasing at the end of the day."

"It's always down to the effort, work rate and willingness of the players, we need players to run behind opponents and for us rather than play in front of teams we need em to run begind and today Jamie Yates' pace frightened them to death. He thoroughly deserved his first senior two league goals."

"If Jamie gets as goos as he thinks he is, he's going to be some player but now we have to keep his feet on the ground because hes precocious without a doubt and keep him doing the right things the same as everbody else, we've got home-grown players scoring goals and it bodes well for the future. It's another home win and it keeps us going, we are now up to ninth and it will give the lads every bit of confidence."

"First and foremost, if you don't concede many then you've got a chance. I'm dissapointed to have conceded the one and we need to focus and mind set at both ends but once we got our goal we looked more positive even from set pieces so we need that aggressive mind set."
