Bradford Bulls coach Mick Potter has admitted that Friday's 30-22 victory over Super League leaders Wigan Warriors will give his players a much-needed morale boost.
The future of the Bulls is currently in doubt after they went into administration earlier this week.
Despite the uncertainty around the club, Potter is delighted with the "grit and determination" that the team showed.
"I'm very pleased with the players," he told Sky Sports News. "It's been a tough place to win. It was a fantastic effort.
"It's great for their morale and I'm really happy for fans that came across because they were on a hiding to nothing.
"You can't take anything away from what they've achieved tonight. With a bit of grit and determination, nothing was going to stop them. They were pretty determined to get the result."
Administrators have just a week to find the funds to save the famous club.
