00:00Fine margins against Charlton, yeah. I think we were very good against Charlton and then in that final third, when we did take our chances,

00:07we probably should have created more than we did with the amount of possession we had in certain areas.

00:13They took theirs, they had one big chance and they took it. Redham was different, it wasn't margins.

00:19The performance with and without the ball was nowhere near what was needed.

00:24No, I think I look at two games. That's football, that's the job as a manager.

00:29You feel the same, you win. Things are very good when you don't. It can be tough.

00:35I think that's always the... I think it's some deeper things in terms of around the club, expectation.

00:41But that's my job, I have to deal with all that and stay as level as you can through all these moments, which I did.

00:47I think even in the Charlton game, I was really level with the performance.

00:51Or level, sorry, stable in terms of speaking around the performance.

00:56I think Redham's different. I don't need to stay stable after that.

00:59What I saw there, I don't accept.
