Speaking to the club’s official website ahead of the visit of Nigel Pearson’s side, Windass said, “We’re in a difficult situation, a really difficult situation, and we have to win all five games to probably stand a chance – so that’s what we’re going out there to do.

“We’re always prepared, and that’s the difficult thing. Obviously we’ve just not been good enough this season, and that hurts the players. There’s nothing I can really say to make people feel better about the situation that we’re in, but we’ll give everything we can for the next five games. And that’s something I can promise.”
