Hide AdDack was given a warm welcome by the home fans having spent four years at the South Wales club as both assistant manager and caretaker manager.
He said: “It’s a massive win for us because obviously we’ve lost our last-four and it’s nice to get back on track.
“We have a young side, and you know they are going to make mistakes, sometimes costly mistakes. But what was really pleasing for us was some young players put in a 90-minute performance.
“We are working hard on the training ground to get better and the manager deserves a bit of credit.
