00:00Have the home performances been a real positive, Stuart, because you've been good at home, haven't you?

00:04Yeah, I think so. I think that, you know, we started off with a looting one and we knew how good looting had been last season.

00:10Obviously, they've not kicked on, but I still thought when we played them at home,

00:15it was a tough first game to come into with us not scoring or creating much, them being very strong.

00:20And I think that was a big bonus to get three points in the first game.

00:25And then we followed it up with, you know, different performances, but good.

00:28Blackburn would go down to 10 men earlier, but probably create them better chances in the game, don't concede a goal.

00:34Beat Watford 3-0, and again, which was a tight game, 0-0 at half-time.

00:37Coventry are tight, but 1-0, so we're ending up on the right side of the results at home.

00:44And then, obviously, the Norwich game was disappointing, but I think they've shown what a good side they can be.

00:49So, yeah, I think when we were at Chefs United, and obviously now we're here,

00:57I think we've both got the same thoughts on the game.

00:59We're at home, and we want to put our style, if you like, and the way we want to play onto the opposition.

01:06So, we fear no-one at home, and we're aiming to get the three points, yeah.

01:10I'm sure your heart goes out to Liam Manning, does it? It's devastating news for him.

01:14Yeah, of course.

01:16You know, what a tragedy.

01:19Liam carried himself so well.

01:21As the Toggies' assistant, I think, you know, he's come in and taken over in that position, speaks really well as well.

01:28So, yeah, of course, best wishes and thoughts go to Liam and all his family.

01:32Yeah, a very sad time.

01:35Obviously, Liam's now, I think, back in the dugout, and yeah, it'll be...

01:41I know it was an emotional week last week.

01:42Obviously, when they played Leeds, watching the game back, it was a very emotional time for everyone at the game.

01:48But, yeah, certainly best wishes on to all the Manning family.

01:52He's a good up-and-coming coach, and the way he speaks, you can tell he's very tactical.

01:56Yeah, certainly so.

01:58Yeah, you know, as a pair, they've both done really well, and you can tell what they're trying to do at Bristol.

02:04They're getting their message over without a doubt, and they'll be looking to be in the top end of the table as well.

02:12You know, they've got a good structure to them, and they've been playing well.

02:16So, yeah, it's going to be a, I would say, a Manning attack game.

02:20Hopefully, we can come out on top.

02:22The last two away games, as I said, they've won a bit of 2-0.

02:25They were 2-0 down at Stoke and came back and drew 2-2, so they've got a bit about them.

02:30When they went behind, they've come back.

02:33Hard-fought point against Leeds last week, as I said.

02:35So, yeah, it's going to be a difficult game, there's no doubt about it, but we're at home and we want to attack this game.

02:40Smashing. Thanks, Stuart.
