This is a crazy spell but we’ll love it: Lowe

“It was important for us to get back to winning ways and get back on track,” he said.

“That was the target to get back to the top six with wins, and we completed that target which was good.

“It is good to be back in the top six and we just have to keep looking forward now.

“Over the previous eight games we had some poor results, yet played well in some games, but didn’t get the right result.”

Looking ahead, he added: “We have a big squad. The manager might make some changes to bring fresh legs to the pitch.

“We will need to use all the players this week and will certainly be looking to whoever is on the bench to come in and make a difference.” ■■David Wagner has demanded Town bring energy and aggression to their performance against Nottingham Forest on Boxing Day.

The head coach was delighted with those qualities in Town’s last outing at Norwich City.

“We were committed and had the right fighting attitude, so we were very strong,” said Wagner.

“Down at Norwich, we were the better team in the first half and while the second was more even, because of their set pieces with crosses and headers, we were very focused and concentrated in those moments

“I was very proud of the fresh way the players played.”
