Town boss Roy Keane has expressed his confidence in loanee from Sunderland David Healy saying to the club website that , “It was a real poacher’s goal from David and he is capable of that. All good goalscorers score a majority of their goals around the six-yard box.” He also said that although Healy was disappointed with not being given a chance earlier, he has now proved himself and can only hope to do better.

He also said that despite coming away from the game with only a point, there were several positives to take from the draw. As always giving credit where it was due, Keane lauded the effort of his teams for fighting from behind and coming back to salvage a point.
