MATCH QUOTES

“That’s a tremendous psychological factor. “Another booking and I will be up before an FA Disciplinary Committee, so there’s always the fear of suspension. “It has affected my game a little - it’s bound to. “Sometimes I pull back just that little bit or take the tiniest amount of edge offa tackle. “But I’m not particularly worried about this latest spell [one goal in his last nine games]. “Goal scoring is not the greater part of my game, but, as a centre forward, I’m expected to knock in a few. “Seventy per cent of my game is taking the knocks and laying the ball off - making chances for others.” Andy Lochhead.
