His team go into the final game of the season level on points with leaders Nottingham Forest who are at home to Stoke City with the chance to clinch the title.

McNamara points to a 0-0 draw with Derby a few weeks ago as costing them the advantage over Forest going into the final fixtures.

But he is keen not to dwell on it saying: “If we can’t win the title we can make sure we only lose it on goal difference and just need to focus on the task in hand as Brighouse will be a difficult proposition. Then if Forest slip up we will take advantage

“We need to finish the season as strongly as possible and re-group for the next one when we will go again,”

Birmingham City Women can’t win the championship despite a winning streak of five games in a row.
