    Hunt set to frustrate Chiefs

    “For any newly promoted club, home form is the most important form,” the 61-year-old told the media.

    “What you get away from home is a bonus. We won our first away game [against TS Galaxy] this season. I think we’ve played five or six away games — we’ve got five or six points, which is fantastic for a newly promoted team.

    “It’s not easy; this league is tight. Anybody can beat anybody on the day," Hunt added.

    "It’s very difficult here. I’ve said it before: if a team has a strong mentality and good attitude, it will go further than a team full of superstars.

    “Obviously, we want to improve in certain areas of our play, but if our mentality is right, we’ll be fine," he concluded.
