You can't blink first as push comes to shove

Jack insists United will Stay calm in title Fight

JACK WALTON knows what it takes to win promotion and he believes that Dundee United have it in spades.

The Tannadice side were heavy favourites this season to make an immediate return to the Premiership but are being pushed all the way by Raith.

Keeper Walton was part of the Barnsley squad that got promoted to the English Championship in 2019 and wants to make it a double with title-chasing United.

He said: "The key lesson is that it is a very long season, there are loads of ups and some downs. You just have to trust in the process.

"The season starts in August and it finishes in May. It is not about individual games or individual months, it is what you do over the course of nine or 10 months and 99 per cent of the time, the best team will get promoted.

"So we just have to make sure we stick to what we believe in and the way we do stuff. We need to work hard every single day, do everything right on and off the pitch.
