    We've been there and you just get on with it. When the whistle blows, it's not where you are in the league; it's how you perform on the day."


    One game. 3 points.

    And how you perform on the day.

    The thing is though that the main difference right now is that we can concede a goal and don't go to pot. The players have a bit of belief. Something that was happening on the pitch a lot, that seems to have cut out is people worrying about doing the jobs of others (Murty on Saturday aside). They're now a bit more confident in themselves and their team mates and - for example - Bailey keeps doing his bit rather than charging around trying, and usually failing - to "bail" out team-mates, often before they've made an error. But by then he'd left a nice big gap, or not pushed forward so the guy with the ball is forced into hit and hope. Nah, the pressure will be important but for me the key is confidence.
