After a few games this season some pundits were saying we were the surprise package and the bubble would burst. Fair enough given what happened in the summer.

A few weeks ago some pundits were giving us praise on one hand but then saying we hadn't really played anyone yet. Some truth in that.

Now at the mid point and with many of the 'big four' games played we remain 4th and 3 points in hand so I was a bit surprised, no actually I wasn't surprised, a bit disappointed to hear comments by some pundits virtually the same as at the start of the season.

Some pundits = Usual suspects in most cases.
