We need to grit it out - Weaver

"I think in chances and possession and territory we were the better team. Everything but the scoreline.

"I had a really big go at them at half time.

"They're a nice bunch of lads but I want more.

"I thought if we took the game to them we'd win but I thought we were holding back.

"It took a few players 15 or 20 minutes to get the nerves out of their system."
