Last updated : 14 March 2010 By Footy Mad - Editor

Chris Hughton: "What we have always had this season is we are never out of a game.

"I can think of games where we have lost - at Blackpool, where we were very much still in the game towards the end; Scunthorpe was a game we lost that we were still very much in at the end and had the better chances.

"That's one thing we have in this group of lads, a real desire not to give up, and you just hope among all that, you have a bit of fortune in front of goal.

"What you saw in Andy (Carroll) today was a player who is in good goalscoring form.

"By our admission and his own, it wasn't one of his better games today and the chance he had was very much a half-chance.

"But this is a lad who is in good goalscoring form and when you are in that type of form, they are the type of goals you score."
