One thing that has surprised me

The gulf is huge. We are getting away with all sorts of things that we never would last year. IF we go up, without at least two new defenders I could easily see us coming straight back. Actually if I'm honest I'm not totally convinced by any of our defenders. And physically it's less demanding - Lappin can actually out-pace and out muscle people.
Also Hoolahan can be devastating in this league (and can also be rubbish) but Swindon showed he can be marked out of a game, I think most Championship teams will have players who can do that.
Everything thing is good now and Lambo is doing a great job, but I don't think we should get carried away.
