Defender Kevin Holt says Dundee United have had a “great start” to their top-flight return, but they are reluctant to “look at the league table too much”.
Holt scored a penalty in his side’s 2-0 win over St Mirren on Saturday, which moved fourth-placed United level on points with Rangers in third.
“It is brilliant,” the centre-back told BBC Scotland. “It has been a great start for us. But we speak about it all the time in terms of that is what it is – it is just a start.
“We are just looking at a game at a time and making sure we pick up as many points as we can, not looking at the league table too much.”
Holt is aware of “how difficult the league can be” and he recognises United could “go through a wee rut” at some point.
That is why the defender feels it is imperative the team rack up as many points as they can while they are in good form.
“We would like to get as many on the board as early as we can,” he added. “You know how much that will help you if you do have that wee lull at some point.
“Hopefully we don’t and we just keep going from strength to strength, like we seem to be doing at the moment.”
