Neill Collins salutes an all-round effort

Apr 14 2008

NEILL Collins saluted a solid all-round team performance for Wolves at Bristol City - insisting the hard work came from the strikers backwards.

Wolves restricted the home side to few chances in an entertaining goalless draw, registering their first clean sheet in seven attempts. "I thought this was a great team performance," said Collins. "We talked about closing them down from the front and we did that with Sylvan (Ebanks-Blake) and Andy (Keogh) working so hard.

"Sylvan has been praised for his goals but the work from those two up front really helped us.

"It's pleasing too for the back four and Wayne (Hennessey) that we picked up a clean sheet and if we can get a couple more before the end of the season we'll definitely be getting the goals to win the games.

"People say this and that about the season we've had but we've got five games to go and are in with a great chance of the play-offs.

"It should all be judged at the end and we're in the mix and confident that we will be there come May."
