WOLVES boss Nuno Esperito Santo insists he doesn’t even look at the Championsh­ip table.

Santo reckons there’s nothing to be gained from having a crafty peek at just how dominant his side are right now.

They hit the front five months ago and have left everyone in their slipstream since.

And the leaders are currently 12 points clear of second-placed Aston Villa as they head for Preston today. “I don’t look,” he ® said. “I’m happy to be the only man in Great Britain who doesn’t look at the league table.

“It’s important to just look at the next game.

“You can’t control your future if you don’t deal with your present.

“I don’t look too far ahead. I don’t know what the players do when they are at home but hard work each day is what leads you to where you want to go.” Wolves have sold their 5,500 allocation for Deepdale as supporters continue to enjoy the dazzling football their side dish up.

Santo said: “It means a lot. We know the effort people make going so many miles, often in very tough conditions.

“We try our best to make them happy.

“The team is the engine of the club but the supporters are what we work for.

“When you take that many to an away ground, it makes you feel proud but it brings with it an obligation.” ®
