Mick McCarthy's side have taken just five points from as many league games and are now only four points ahead of Reading, who beat them on January 27 and who also have a game in hand.

But Quashie, who signed on loan from West Ham last month, believes Wanderers are merely suffering a "blip" and will soon be able to provide their fans with something to cheer - starting at Burnley tomorrow.

"That's how it is - every team has been wanting to beat us, Reading and Birmingham," he said.

"At Coventry last weekend I think we had enough chances to win the game and were just a bit unfortunate.

"Sometimes there's a blip in the season when things don't quite go your way and I think at this moment in time over the last few weeks it's been ours."
