COMMITTED North End deserved this win and more performances like this should ensure their safety.

They battled in a way they should have done more this season - but there's no room for complacency.

The victory gave Moyes' men some breathing space - they are six points above relegation - but a slip-up on Saturday at Plymouth would put them back in the danger zone.

Moyes said: "A left-back scored with his right foot, but I will take any sort of goal right now. We haven't turned the corner yet."
