Rushden & Diamonds manager Barry Hunter was delighted with the win "I'm thoroughly delighted. I'm not going to say otherwise and come out with all the cliches like we have to keep our feet on the ground and all that rubbish - I'm thoroughly delighted and we'll enjoy it."
"It'll give the lads a bit more belief in what we are telling them and they know what they can do - they got a result from it considering the average age of the whole squad tonight."
Stags manager Carlton Palmer was obviously disapointed with the result "I thought we totally dominated the game, although our passing could have been better at times. "We had 15 attempts on goal but nothing broke for us all night and we ended up conceding a goal from a set-piece. "They have gone into their dressing room singing and dancing but if I was their manager I would not have been that pleased as they were totally battered on the night. "Their keeper has made a lot of very good saves and it was totally one way traffic for 90 minutes. "The fans also have to be patient"
