00:00Big opportunity, they go top of the table, I think you've got to just look at that and look at the positives.
00:06With this crowd behind you, when they do get behind you, how does it feel when you're out there?
00:11It must give you a huge boost.
00:13Yeah, for sure, you can see in the second half there was our 12th man, kept us going,
00:17got back in the game and should have won the game,
00:21but just didn't quite get the ball in the back of the net for the second goal.
00:25Each game we just take the positives from the last game, try to rectify the negatives,
00:30things that we've done, and keep pushing.
00:32All the lads putting 100 per cent in every day, in the way we train, the way we recover,
00:37so I'm sure you'll see the same in the second half, hopefully on Monday night.
00:41What's the dressing room like? Obviously after tonight's play you'll be a bit deflated,
00:45but is there a real excitement building amongst the players as well?
00:49It's probably a grasp, I don't know if you know what it means now as well,
00:53you haven't been here now for a good few weeks,
00:57do you know what it means to the fans here?
00:59Yeah, for sure, it is a little bit deflated and that's good,
01:03that's positive that we're deflated.
01:05We don't want to settle for a draw, we want to go for the win
01:08because we know how much it means to the individuals, the players,
01:12as a team collectively and as a football club and the city and the fans and so forth.
01:17We're giving everything and all we can do is look forward to the next game
01:22and just keep pushing, take each game one at a time,
01:25never get too ahead of ourselves collectively and individually
01:29because football is a cool game at the same time.
01:33So as long as we keep our heads, everyone put 100 per cent in,
01:37I'm sure the fans won't ask for much more.
01:39As long as they can see our determination and drive on the pitch,
01:42I'm sure they'll be happy when the 90-minute whistle is blown.
01:46Last question, from left field, but I have to ask you about that dance and the daily work
01:50because I think I did something like a kiajou.
01:52It's just in the moment, I'm Jamaican so obviously you might see a little move here and there.
01:59But yeah, it was good to celebrate the highs because in football you'll have lows as well.
02:05So yeah, it was a good night and hopefully we can bring a medal home,
02:11but the main focus is on Monday night here.
