Thompson said: “I would hope that there’s been some words said in the changing room by the players as they try to sort things out.

“We’ve been fortunate that we have amount of points that we have, and that’s given us a gap away from the rest of the teams, but I’m sure a few words have been said, but for me, it’s all about that top end of the pitch.
