00:00I haven't been thinking about it but then someone will ring it up every five minutes
00:04and then I'm like, oh Christ, yeah, I've got to just try and keep it going. But no, the
00:09results are just happening. I'm just trying to play my part, everyone else is playing
00:13their part. You know, like I've said a million times, it's a huge group effort with staff
00:17and players. So, you know, we just hope that we can keep ticking them off. We're not too
00:23bothered about it. As long as we get three points, that's all that matters.
00:27But you'll probably get a kick in when you do concede here.
00:29Yeah, it'll be a weird one. It'll be really frustrating but what can you do? But hopefully
00:35that time doesn't come for a while yet.
00:37Well, it would be remiss not to clearly mention Plymouth. As you say, they played very well
00:42but their difficult situation continues.
00:45Yeah, their league position is a difficult one but if they play like that week in, week
00:52out, there's no doubt they'll be absolutely fine. They really made it tough for us today.
00:57One of our toughest games so far this evening, I'd say. So, yeah, they'll turn things around
01:03if they keep playing like that, I'm sure of it.
01:05And as we're about to enter kind of the Christmas period proper, to be top three points clear,
01:13what does that mean to you personally and obviously as a group?
01:16I just think as a group it reflects how hard we've been working, how focused we've been.
01:21It sends a message out to the other teams in the league. You know, we're not here by
01:26chance. We are really trying to get these results, really trying to just keep plugging
01:30away and long may it continue because it's putting us in a good place heading into the new year.
