"I am happy, because we shuffled the pack a little bit, which was really important for us," Setchell told @corbytownfc
"The team has been doing so well in the league, and lads have had to be patient which is difficult.

"We found that out two weeks ago (the two sides drew 0-0 in the league). They don't give up, they fight for everything, and if you don't match that then they could run all over you.
"I am pretty sure they will pick up results this season, especially at home.
"They play to a system, they make it difficult, they are big, strong and energetic and that is a tough puzzle.

"That was a very, very difficult game and was probably worthy of a draw, Wellingborough probably deserved a shootout, but I am so glad it didn't go to a shootout, although Fletcher did pop up with a penalty and took it very well.
"But we will play better than that this season and lose, as I didnt think we were great.
"That is a great win for us. Did we deserve it? Probably not, but we will take it 100 per cent."
