Speaking about his debut and his goal, Tom Bayliss said: “It’s a dream come true to make my first start in front of the home fans and I’ve been at the club since the age of 12, so to make my full debut and to score after two minutes was a brilliant feeling.

“I found out I was starting Friday morning. We had a team meeting and the gaffer pulled me into his office and said how does that make you feel and I said I’m looking forward to it, I’m feeling confident and obviously I train with the lads every day so I know them inside out so it was a good feeling.

“It was a tough game, they were physical and it’s different to under 23s football and what I’ve experienced before but it was a good challenge and for the team to get three points at the end of it was the most important thing.

“Just before the game, Willis said to me to be confident and the ball has just rolled to me and I’ve hit it and it’s took a deflection, but it’s definitely my goal.

“As soon as it looped up and then dipped under the bar, I didn’t really know what to do to be fair and it’s just a big plus.

“Seeing shippers do so well just makes you hungrier and to get my chance to play alongside him today was good and he gave me a big hug when I scored because I’ve known him for a long time.”
