After Saturday's fixture against Portsmouth, Brian Barry-Murphy turned his attention to our next Sky Bet Championship clash, a home match against Stoke City on Tuesday evening.
"It's a very tough schedule." Brian began. "We knew the games were very close together in this opening period. With the squad the size of ours, that has its challenges, but we'll try to play really well in our home stadium, and try to win.
"We have to remain calm. I wouldn't get too carried away by where we are; it's very early in the season. We've worked together for a period with a lot of these players, so that's a real benefit - we know how we work. We have to improve, and that will remain the case.
"We were backed incredibly on Wednesday night at an extreme cost to our supporters. To come to Portsmouth in such numbers again, the support is incredible, and we don't take that for granted. I can't thank them enough for what they've done, but we know that our job is to win."
Brian provided an injury update ahead of the game, after Isaak Davies missed out on Saturday's match at Fratton Park.
"Isaak wasn't fit - he felt his hamstring in training on Friday, so I imagine he won't be available for Tuesday. The rest of the guys are back around the international break, so I don't imagine anything will change between now and Tuesday.
"The players who are here will have our full backing, our full support to try and help them produce a performance that gives us a chance to win. We're very confident that we can win games at this level, and I'm sure we will."
