Crawley Town assistant manager Jimmy Dack was delighted the team produced a comfortable win against his former club Newport County after their disappointing defeat at Leyton Orient.

He was quick to praise the new players who have come in and rejuvenated the side.

Dack said: “After Saturday we wanted to draw a line under it as quick as we could.

“On Monday we had a team meeting, looked at one or two things, looked at each other in the eyes and said we let ourselves down on Saturday and the main word was reaction.

“We needed a reaction tonight and I thought we got that in abundance.”

Dack believed the six changes to the starting line-up was exactly what was needed for the team.

He said: “We needed to freshen it up. We know we’ve had a small squad all season and that’s something we needed to do.

“I thought young Lyle Della-Verde was excellent. Young Frankie Sutherland was brilliant in midfield.
