'˜I looked at the players in the dressing room after the game and asked them if they were tired.
'˜They all said 'yes'Â and I told them that's how they should feel after a game.Â
'˜They should give everything and that's what they did.
'Now we need to build from this and hopefully go on a bit of a winning run.'

Hide AdAfter a turbulent few seasons, including several winding-up orders and managerial changes, there is now stability at Privett Park.
McAllister is determined to help Borough regain their National League South status they held previously.
The manager added: '˜We are desperate for this football club to do well because it has had so much bad press and we need to get it back to where it belongs.
'˜It will take time and patience which is difficult because we want success quickly '“Â everyone does.'
'˜I am not expecting to win every week but if we keep performing like that, putting the effort in, then we will win more games than we lose.
