00:00Paul, 2-1 win against Leatherhead, that was a really dominant performance, impressive for 90 minutes, could have been more,
00:07and then just a little scary stoppage time, obviously with the 1-back, but thoughts on that?
00:11Yeah, it was exactly that, you know, I thought we were really good today, we'd come out of the blocks, we took our chances, early doors,
00:17and then after that, you know, continued to dominate, but we just missed chance after chance, you know, the game should have never got to where it got to,
00:25it should have been 7 or 8, but, you know, they stuck in there, and yeah, it was a nervy 5 minutes at the end.
00:32Yeah, I was going to say, 2-0 within 20, and then there were so many chances right now, so it could have been a real cricket score today, really, with some of the chances, couldn't it?
00:39Yeah, we should have gone in, you know, for at least 4 at half-time, then come out 2nd half, and we, you know, should have had another at least 3,
00:46but yeah, we didn't take them, we were made to work hard in the last 5 minutes, but yeah, the flip side to it is, you know, we rode that storm at the end,
00:53so the boys can show that side to them, so we'll take that as a positive.
00:56Yeah, and obviously, yeah, got the lead early in 6 minutes, Jordan hangs it up and leads there, sort of there, nice, easy header for him,
01:03but that was a perfect start, obviously, what you wanted.
01:05Yeah, it was a perfect start, yeah, we sort of flowed forward really well, and yeah, we was causing them all sorts of problems,
01:10we was getting away from them, and yeah, Jordy had a good start to the game, you know, it was a great ball to the back post,
01:15and he's dispatched it, and then, yeah, then Jordy got a goal with a little bit of fortunate work down the right-hand side.
01:22Yeah, Jack Dean sort of, yeah, got given the ball, didn't he, and then he's put it on the plate for him, hasn't he?
01:26Yeah, but no, you know, at the moment, you know, we've got to punish, and we punished really well today,
01:30but yeah, we just didn't, didn't kill the ball in the end.
01:33Yeah, I mean, at half-time at 2-0, and it could have been more already at that point,
01:37you'd have sort of wanted more of the same, and sort of performance-wise, it was really, it was in that second half, wasn't it?
01:42The chances kept coming.
01:43Yeah, chances kept coming, yeah, you know, sometimes 2-0's hard to, you know, get going again in the second half,
01:48but yeah, I thought we'd come out really well, and yeah, the chances were good, you know, Owen Dean's one,
01:54not so much, you know, created it himself, but he rattled off the bar, he just did it so well.
01:59That goes in, and yeah, you're thinking it's going to be six or seven in the end, but we were made to struggle in the end.
02:05Yeah, that one that rattled the bar, it would have been a great strike, but also the build-up as well,
02:09Steps just sort of played it out to Jack Dean, he's headed it back in, it would have been a real sort of special goal.
02:13Yeah, it was a great pass from Steps, you know, 50 yards across the pitch, and yeah, great touch by Jack,
02:17and then picked his brother out, and yeah, unfortunately, it's just bounced alongside the line.
02:22And managed to, obviously, get all the subs on, and just sort of manage people, because it's a busy run, isn't it,
02:27obviously at the moment, obviously started Wednesday, and going to carry on.
02:30Yeah, we've had a big week, you know, fixture-wise, you looked at it, and we've come away with nine points,
02:35so yeah, we're well happy, and yeah, the squad's been, you know, massive, and they've all played their part,
02:41and they've got to keep doing it.
02:43And they know they're going to have to keep doing it, aren't they, because obviously the games are just going to keep coming thick and fast, aren't they?
02:47Yeah, we turn around, we're choosing now, and another tough one with Hayes and Yed in here,
02:51followed by another two trickier away games, you know, we've got to get through them, we get through them,
02:55and we'll have a clear picture of, you know, where the finish line is.
02:58And Wednesday was obviously a real big statement to go to Kingstonian and win 4-0,
03:03and obviously you've got that nine-point lead, but obviously there's still a long way to go, isn't it,
03:06you've just got to keep driving it home and ticking them off?
03:08Yeah, it was a great performance on Wednesday night at Kingstonian's,
03:12and sometimes they can be a little bit hard to follow up, because we were so good Wednesday night,
03:17so there's always that bit of doubt in the back of your mind that we stay focused,
03:21but credit to the boys, you know, they were bang on it today, and yeah, like you say, it's a good week.
03:27Yeah, so performance-wise today, you couldn't really say really impressive,
03:30you say nine points out of nine, that's a big week to chalk off, isn't it?
03:34Yeah, it's a huge week, huge week, and yeah, we're really happy,
03:37just a little bit frustrated at the amount of chances we missed today.
03:40Zaki obviously made his debut Wednesday, home debut today,
03:44and obviously didn't really have much to do in terms of anything in terms of shots,
03:48but just really clear vocal presence that he offers really there, isn't it?
03:52It is, yeah, you know, he comes straight in on Wednesday, and I think, you know,
03:55straight away the boys, the confidence at the back, they know what's around them,
04:00they know what's behind them, and yeah, he looks to be a real good asset.
04:04Impressive performances throughout, really, throughout the team, really,
04:08everyone's delivered, really, didn't they?
04:10Yeah, everyone's delivered, I think everyone's up there, you know,
04:12if you're marking them, they're all around the eight mark.
04:14You know, Lyds is a nuisance from the start, you know, he's one of the first on the team sheet,
04:19and he comes off with the effort he puts in, and we know we need to keep him fit for the running.
04:25And yeah, Jack Dean, obviously, he sort of comes back straight on it, really,
04:30sort of impressive again.
04:31Yeah, you know, Jack's mentality is spot on, he looks after himself,
04:36and yeah, he's a winner, wants to win, and yeah,
04:39and you can see that in him again today, straight in, and no change.
04:43And sort of a word on the work this morning, obviously, to get the game on,
04:47obviously, real sort of great effort, and positive, obviously, getting the three points.
04:52Yeah, I come down here about half-eight, and it was a late in the far side of the pitch,
04:57there's no chance of this being on, but yeah, great effort by everyone getting it on,
05:01and it's paid well for us.
05:02And a big crowd, yeah, nearly 800, just under 800, so yeah, they enjoyed their afternoon.
05:07Yeah, it was a good afternoon, good atmosphere in there, you know,
05:09they've read the vocal, and yeah, so will we, and yeah, we march on with the three points.
05:14And I presume you're just going to keep trying to tick these games off,
05:16it's a real quick turnaround now to another home game on Tuesday against Hayden Yellingham.
05:20It's the business part of the season, you know, no matter how you win, you've just got to win these games,
05:24and yeah, we'll tick this one off, and we'll look to go and tick Hayes off.
