The fans hope for the play-offs and so do we.[LNB]"We will have a strong squad and we want a strong start. The momentum is with us and why not in the Championship? The manager has told us to come back strong and I am sure we will.[LNB]"The competition for places will be greater. You need to deliver and it starts again from new so it is very important to be fit and ready. I am an experienced player and I will be ready."[LNB]Meanwhile, manager Nigel Pearson was beaten in his quest to claim the manager of the month award for April, which instead went to MK Dons boss Roberto Di Matteo.[LNB][LNB]
