We have got a really hard couple of months ahead, major test of mentality and I reckon by the end of Jan we will know whether we are champions or not 👏🏼🇬🇧💙

3 tough away games, but I think if we come out of that with 9 points the league may just be over.

Get what you’re saying mate it’s unfair but to sky it’s all about viewing figures. Harsh way the world works. Even people down south will tune into OF games.
