Lunt was impressed with his side's 'dominating' performance against the Blades in which a goal in each half from Aaron Dowsett and Callum Ainley secured the points.

Centre-back Dowsett thumped home a header from Oliver Finney's free-kick and Ainley struck low into the bottom corner after the break after going on a mazy run.

Lunt said: "It was a game where our whole 11 played well and we could've, and probably should've, won by more.

"Sheffield United were top of the league and playing well so for us to put in that kind of performance and win so comfortably was really encouraging."
