Dave Jones said: "If we can take what we do on the training ground to the main ground, everyone will be more than happy.

"You have to make your own luck and that's what we're trying to do."

Neil Warnock said: "Having lads like Norris and Green back is important for us because it lets me make changes if I need to.

"We've done reasonably well so far but I want us to keep things going with a good result. It’s a cracking game for both teams.”
