The Premier boss conceded that the Exiles were fully deserving of their victory at Semple Stadium, secured with Liam Gallagher’s last-gasp two-pointer after 74 minutes of play. That winner was initially ruled a one-pointer but even though the orange flag wasn't waved, it was upgraded to two upon the final whistle.
