Michael Skubala was pleased with the performance of his players after Saturday's outstanding 5-1 victory against Peterborough United.

City made it back-to-back wins at the LNER Stadium with goals from Dom Jefferies, Tom Bayliss, Freddie Draper, Ethan Hamilton and James Collins.

Skubala said: “It was a great performance, especially without the ball. We really went after them and I thought we dominated them from start to finish.

“Tom Bayliss was great. We know his quality, what he’s got on the ball and we saw from his free-kick what he can bring to this squad.”

City’s head coach reiterated the need to keep pushing and build momentum with a short turnaround to the Blackpool game at the LNER Stadium on Tuesday evening.

He added: “The team has been working so hard. This group has got great character and I think we saw that with how we dominated them. We have to keep pushing and improving - if we play like that every week we’ll be in a good spot.

“Trying to build momentum in this league is important. If you can get another win and get on a run it moves you up the table. It’s another three points but it’ll be a completely different game on Tuesday.”
