Transcript
00:00 injuries have had a major impact on Pooles given how bright the start of the season was.

00:14 but hopefully not too far away. The likes of Mancini, Hendry, Crawford, some flickers of hope for Pooles
00:20 and John Askey over the coming weeks in terms of the Cavalry being on the hill?
00:27 You hope so. We saw enough evidence in the first month of the season, the first six weeks of the season,
00:32 to suggest that it can work. Because you were thinking, what was it, it was the best start in over 30 years?

00:52 you can't get away from it. The problem is, certainly with Mancini, the severity of that injury,
00:58 that is not an easy injury to come back from. The hamstring problem of that grade,
