great mark respect worked
I have a way of working and how I like to work. I have worked with Mark before at Portsmouth and have great respect for him.
blow doctor home sent
He had a blow on his ribs, so we'll have to see what he's like later. He'll go and see the doctor tomorrow. He's been sent home to rest.
charity footballer work
He does more work for charity than any other footballer I know.
bit bring hoping people trying
We've been trying to bring people in. We're just hoping that we get a little bit of a break.
loan money signed somebody spend surprised
I wouldn't be surprised if Preston signed somebody this week. They've got the money to go out and spend a loan fee.
left marking mind occupy players playing three waste wide
I wouldn't mind having a little look, but not with the way Preston are playing at the moment. They're playing three up front, with one down the middle. There's no way I'd waste three players marking one. Usually the two wide players will occupy the full-backs, and then you'd be left with only one centre-forward and three centre-halves marking him.
both good obviously open sides
I thought it was a very open game, and both sides went for it. Obviously we're disappointed because we thought we had the better chances, but it was a good game.
against bit brighton came couple games last mickey missed
I thought Mickey did well when he came on against Brighton on Saturday. He's champing at the bit now. He's missed the last couple of games so I'm sure, if selected, he'll be up for it.
playing responsibility
When you're playing those teams, you have a responsibility to other clubs.
boys loan next signings
We'll look for one or two long-term loan signings from the big boys next season. If we can do that, it will help, as long as we get the right ones.
available couple hurt miss training
Vincent will miss training for a couple of days. Romain hurt his back a bit, but I think the two of them will be available for Saturday.
bring deal frailties given improve opportunity players squad summer wheel within
We know where the frailties within the squad are. It's all about being given the opportunity to try and improve the squad. Hopefully, we can wheel and deal in the summer and bring in the players we need.
bring chasing example month player sort younger
I've been chasing Leon for about a month and a half. He is an example of the sort of younger player I want to bring to the club.
definite lots tied
There are lots of things happening, but we haven't tied anything down for definite yet.
