Wilko: A point gained

Last updated : 18 November 2002 By Black Cat

Wilkinson said: "If you want a barometer of our progress it is the keeper. Five weeks ago he was nowhere, he was struggling to catch a beachball.

"I don't think Poom's arrival inspired him. He knew what I was trying to do. Today as in his last three performances he was magnificent and along with the others earned us some luck.

"It was definitely a point gained. The players did their jobs, mentally they were tough and they showed a great deal of discipline.

"You can't question their work ethic."
