"We were told that the bus was stuck in traffic, so we decided to get on the tube," Adams revealed.

"We bought 23 single tickets at Hanger Lane station, and none of the fans could believe their eyes when they saw us.

"We took a bit of stick from West Ham fans and Fulham fans, but our unsung hero was Jay Tabb - he knew we had to change at Hammersmith and then go to Shepherd's Bush.

"I feel a bit sorry for him as well, because I did not even put him in the team.

"We got to the ground at 2.20pm, went on to the pitch and won 1-0.

"Everyone talks about preparation, but this proves it is a load of nonsense."

"We did not deserve to win today. After the run we have been on, people just expected us to turn up and roll Coventry over.

"So this was the first time for a while most of our player have been under pressure, but it will do us good, because it will get our feet back on the ground.

"Lee Cook was outstanding today, but a lot of the players seemed to be looking at him and saying 'get us out of jail, Cooky'."
