This is what I've been working on all year. We knew how good the Championship has been this year. What a way to win, what a way to go up.

I saw the space in behind, Will (Smallbone) winning the ball back. I knew if I kept it low and hard across goal it was going to go in, so it was a nice one.

(Promotion) means everything, The gaffer and his staff came in pre-season, put the mortar down of what they wanted and look at this.

This is why we're footballers. We want to be involved in the biggest games. What a way to win.

The playoff final is probably the biggest game in football. To get promoted to the Premier League is unbelievable. What an amazing win this is."
