00:07 And maybe you're asking,

00:19 what do you know about English football, Tom?

00:22 Well, let's just say I got a lot to learn.

00:30 (upbeat music)

00:32 They love the club.

00:47 They wanna do it properly.

00:48 They wanna give us what we need.

00:51 They wanna look after us.

00:52 And like I say,

00:53 hopefully we can repay that by,

00:55 we'll see, get a promotion again this year.

02:21 but these fans have never stopped believing.

02:24 We got a song that says,

02:26 "No matter what, you keep right on to the end of the road,

02:29 and I'll be on that road with you."
