Toby: "I'm calmer on the pitch than outside it!"

The ever-reliable defender picked up a hamstring injury after a burst forward in that memorable win against the holders in the Champions League on November 1. That ended an ever-present run in the Premier League from 1 January. He missed just two cup matches between January 1-November 1.

Just over three months later, Toby was back and helping the team to a clean sheet, a 2-0 win in the FA Cup fourth round replay against Newport and a fifth round date at Rochdale on 18 February.

"I worked hard in the last couple of months to get to this point, the last weeks have been tough and I'm very happy to get 90 minutes from the manager, to show myself again and to be able to help the team again," said Toby.
