00:00I mean, really, this club's been on a roll since February before last, really,

00:15when you went on that amazing finish to last season.

00:17How much do you think will momentum count in terms of stepping up a level?

00:24I think it counts.

00:25I think you have a core group of players that have obviously been there from that February

00:31and through last season and going into this season.

00:33But I think it's a fresh start.

00:36We always talk about it's just all focus on the next game.

00:39So all focus on the first game of the season.

00:41Then the second game, there's no looking back.

00:44What's gone now is gone.

00:47That won't help us this year.

00:49Winning it, unfortunately, as good as it was, winning League 2 won't help us do well in League 1.

00:54So we have to focus now and focus on every game and take every game as it comes.

00:59But do you think going through and coming through the tough moments that there were last season,

01:03inevitably, that knowledge that you've done it together, you trust each other,

01:09will that count for something when there are difficult times this season?

01:13Yeah, definitely.

01:14Definitely.

01:14We have a great, great group of players.

01:16And like I said, a great core group of players that have been here through that.

01:19Obviously, we had a couple of sticky spells last year,

01:24maybe one or two games here and there.

01:26But with the group we have and how well we get along with each other

01:30and how much we trust each other, we know what we've got

01:33and we know that we'll always bounce back.

01:35And there's never any falling outs or anything like that between staff

01:39or between players because we're all in it together

01:42and we have a great group of people, not just players, a great group of people.
