    It's very telling that no one's catching us, quite the opposite. We aren't the only ones who are not playing as well as we can, the cup week should enable us to reset and give the players that need it, a rest.

    20 points ahead of Southampton, I can't see them making that up, can remove them from rivals list now.

    How much will we spend in the summer?

    I don't think the odds of staying up, or even being a yo-yo team are too bad really. Looking at the 30 promoted teams in the last 10 years; 10 teams are still in the Premier league - Burnley, Bournemouth, Newcastle, Brighton, Wolves, Fulham, Villa, Brentford, Forest, Leeds. Of last year's...

    200 million price tag - Wright

    His thinking is, that's what it would cost us if we failed to get promoted as a consequence of selling him.

    If we can beat Ipswich it might not be long before we are talking about taking them off the list, specially if Millwall can do them and we have a good result against Swansea.
