Terry: 'We got better as the game went on!'

Leyton Orient assistant manager Paul Terry dedicated the 1-0 win over Stevenage to "everyone associated with the club".

Alex Gilbert's 79th minute goal earned the O's their first home league victory since 21 March, after seven without a win at Brisbane Road.

"As staff, we were aware of that, but you don't want to get bogged down by that because it becomes a weight on the players' shoulders a little bit," Terry told BBC Radio London.

"We haven't made a big thing of it. As long as we do the right things in a game, we're always going to have a chance of winning it.

"It wasn't our best performance, it wasn't pretty. We've done the ugly side of the game and we've got the goal we needed and three points.

"This is for everyone - the players, the staff, the fans, everyone associated with the club - because we were all together on that one."
