Speaking following the game Allardyce enthused, “It was a great, great victory for us and our first away in the Barclays Premier League this season.”
“We showed great character, great spirit and great belief from the team.
“I’m delighted. Against a lot of the odds we still went ahead and won this game and won it a lot more comfortably than the score suggested. To be honest at 2-0 at half time you’d have thought I’d be satisfied but because of the amount of chances we created in the first half I was disappointed it wasn’t three.”
