We are delighted said Bartlett

Hereford United captain and goalkeeper Adam Bartlett speaking after the game said the squad was delighted with the three points gained at Saltergate.

"We are delighted in the dressing room," Bartlett told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"We put in a big shift today and we've played them off the park.

"Their goalkeeper has made some great saves but I wasn't troubled until around the 75th minute so that shows our dominance to come here and do that to a team that is up around the play-offs.

"It was the plan to get their crowd's backs up especially after they were beaten here 5-0 by Port Vale.

"When we had possession we retained it very well and got into some great positions.

"That's a massive three points for us today.

"Jake (Jarvis) has come in and was brilliant today. He and Lewis (Young) have got bags of potential and ability.

"Pughy took his goal really well.

"On another day we might have been four or five goal winners."

Bartlett did have one major scare near the end of the game.

"It was a little bit of luck. It was a good ball across and their big man should have scored at the back post. I was just able to stick my foot out and get a toe to it."

Barlett went onto describe how the squad feels now Graham Turner is back in charge.

"There is just a little bit more calmness. He's getting the lads more confident around the place.

"Training has been spot-on. The atmosphere has been brilliant.

"We are a happy group. Long may it continue."

Finally Bartlett confirmed he would be at Edgar Street next season.

"I moved down here in the summer and have enjoyed every minute of my first season in League football.

"As far as I'm aware I'm here next season and looking forward to it."
