00:00Well, you said that you gelled pretty early on, but did you know where it was going to go?
00:05Listen, I think the honest answer is when you've got Wes Houlihan in your team,
00:10you're going to do well. I think that's the easiest way to kind of answer that question.
00:16Wes, he was a magician, but he also had really good players around him.
00:22Keith Southern obviously was a great player, went on to play Premier League football.
00:26Like I said, Evo at the back was strong and was a leader and everyone had their own strengths.
00:33When you've got that and you have a sprinkle of someone like Wes Houlihan involved as well,
00:40you're always destined to achieve good things.
00:43Like I say, I think the fact that we all got on so well off the field definitely helped.
00:51We were a really close group.
