Millwall manager Willie Donachie spoke to the assembled press about his side's 2-0 win at home to the Cumbrians, Donachie talking about an excellent all-round team display from the Lions :


"Neil Harris has been threatening this for a while. His first goal was fantastic. He really deserves it. He was so selfless across the entire field. I'm delighted because Neil's been filling in all over the place and always puts in a fantastic effort. We played him more centrally in the second half and it paid off for him. But it wasn't just Neil - Darren Byfield put in some great work for the team, while Dave Brammer did a great job. We've got a good run going now.

"There were a lot of good performances across the field. The opening ten minutes we let them play and gifted them with some crosses. I was particularly impressed with our full-back getting forward and causing problems. We knew it wouldn't be easy but felt if we kept working we would get the breaks. We knew playing against five in midfield would be difficult and tough to break down against tricky opponents.

"The play-offs have always been on our mind even when we were in the relegation zone but we're not bothered by it at the moment. It's very tight. Teams are taking points off each other all the time and anyone that goes on a run can get there. We're just doing our jobs. We're just looking at Crewe next and we'll see what happens."
