It was the perfect response to their opening weekend 5-1 thrashing at Newcastle and the double injury blow of losing Emi Buendia and Tyrone Mings to serious knee injuries just days apart.
Cash said: “I was delighted with the brace, but also the fact that we’ve bounced back and won three games in a row. After the Newcastle game, we were all a bit low, which is normal.
