The 3 points are massive, but also important is the awareness we gained of what it will take to compete at this level. In League One, we dominated teams who tried to actually play football against us, but when Sunderland did it yesterday, we were the ones who found ourselves on the back foot. Thanks to the guts of our defence and persistent quality of our opportunities when they came, we triumphed, but we learned lessons. Kieran took note, Ashton took note and I think we'll look back at this match as a wake-up call, realizing that we can immediately succeed against top clubs in the Championship but also giving us a keener and clearer understanding of where we need to be for that to happen over the long haul.
