The 35 year old said: "We always thought we had a chance. They are a very physical side, they put the ball into the box, they are really dangerous at set plays but I thought we handled them well. You're always going to be under pressure towards the end. They more or less played four up front, put everything in the box and see what happened."
"We did well though, we looked dangerous on the break, got two great goals, and we could have even got a few more. I thought we deserved to win."
"Once they brought it back to a one goal deficit, we knew it was going to be hard. They were bringing everyone forward, getting a lot of free kicks and throw ins, but everyone did well. We got another three points, and it's been a good month for us."
He then went on to talk about how pleased he is with the start to the season and how December could be the making or breaking point of the season.
De Zeeuw added: "At the start of the season, as a newly promoted club, you would be looking to get on average a point per game, maybe a little bit more, but with the start we've had we could start to think of more, but that's dangerous. I've been here before, and we just have to take each game as it comes."
"The month before Christmas will be very tough when we play a lot of the top teams in a short space of time so every point we take now is very, very important."
"I think we have shown some people that we are not such a shabby side. We're all grateful for what Rodney Marsh said before the start of the season, because we've got four wins now and he only predicted six and we definitely look set to achieve that. When somebody says something not nice about you, you want to prove them wrong, so in a way he has pushed us forward."
"Everyone said we looked a bit shaky at the start but we had just played two very good teams and they weren't embarrassing defeats. We definitely deserve to be in the Premiership at the moment, but it's a long haul."
