WSS: There is still a lot of football to be played of course, but how big an
achievement would it be for the club if you were able to regain second tier
status after a few years away?
CJ: We know where we belong and we know we can compete with teams in the
Championship, so it would be a massive achievement as we’ve been pushing for promotion
every season and we just keep getting closer and closer.
