On Tuesday night, Montgomery astonishingly struck his first Sheffield United goal in just under four-years, and it was a goal to savor, despite a slight deflection. The stand-in captain replaced Chris Morgan in the skippering duties on Tuesday, and his poised to do so again at Doncaster this weekend.
Speaking on the team performance in midweek against play-off rivals Blackpool, he said: "It's vitally important to keep winning at home, especially with us only picking up a point on Saturday. If we can sort out our away form we have a chance of making the play-offs.
"Tuesday night's game was enjoyable to play in, and hopefully it was enjoyable for the fans to watch."
Speaking on his goal, he said: "It's been a long time coming. Henri Camara pulled it back sweetly for me and I managed to put it into the bottom-corner. I think there was a tiny deflection, but the 'keeper wouldn't have saved it anyway," he joked.
"It's not my job to score, but it's always nice if you do. Hopefully I can get a couple more goals before the end of the season. Scoring goals isn't something that's on my mind, though - we have strikers to do that, and my job is to help the back four at the other end.
"I'm delighted to get the goal, but most importantly the three points."
