00:00 Other than the obvious Lyle Foster with the suspension, I think obviously we'll have to
00:05 manage that situation. But everyone's healthy, everyone's ready to have a go on Saturday.
00:11 We've built, I think, a decent squad. There's a few players that I would have liked to see
00:16 anyway. So it's for someone else not to step into those shoes and give it its own flavour.
00:24 Hopefully it'll be something that pays off on the day.
00:26 I've been many years in the dressing rooms before. Everybody feels sorry for you but
00:31 there's someone rubbing his hands. There's someone getting ready and thinking, "That
00:35 could be my chance." I think now his role is to support the team and I'm sure we'll
00:42 get him back at his best level as well.
00:44 We've had three games against three of the top eight sides, I would say, in this league.
00:48 The gap has always been there. We played two games against teams like Forest where we felt
00:54 that we were on an even playing field. It's for us now to make sure we close that gap
00:59 with the teams at the top. I'm really looking forward to this game in terms of seeing if
01:03 we've made those steps forward.
01:05 Then I really believe in the attacking threat we have in our team, being able to do something.
01:11 Hopefully that shows on Saturday.
