"If anyone had done their pools (on Saturday), there would have been some heavy losses. No one would have put Palace down for a defeat. The same with Wolves v Sheffield Wednesday.
"We are staying positive. We have lost two in 17 games and we have to be happy with that record.
"We are still in a great position, believe me. Palace and Watford would both love to have drawn their games (against Derby and Millwall respectively), but didn't."
