Hello and welcome to Late Kick Off. Delight, despair, a dismissal and a | :00:01. | :00:11. | |
:00:11. | :00:21. | ||
dream come true - all here this What's going on at Notts County? | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
Martin Allen is out and it looks like Keith Curle is in - it's 12 | :00:25. | :00:30. | |
managers in 10 years at Meadow Lane.. | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Trent, we're at the relegation | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
dogfight between Forest and Coventry - who's going to stay up? | :00:37. | :00:47. | |
:00:47. | :00:47. | ||
And how a phone call really can change everything. Hello? How are | :00:47. | :00:53. | |
you? I'm OK, thank you. And we'll find out just how alright Chris | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
Smith is later in the show. I'm joined in the studio tonight by | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
two men who learnt their football trade here in the Midlands. Noel | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
Blake made his name as an uncompromising defender with | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
Birmingham, Stoke and Portsmouth and is now coach of the England | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
Under 19 team. And Michael Johnson knows all about life at Meadow Lane, | :01:07. | :01:13. | |
as player, coach and caretaker manager. Gentlemen, welcome. If | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
you're looking for job security, don't think about the manager's job | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
at Notts County. Keith Curle will be the 12th manager there in 10 | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
years. He'll succeed Martin Allen who was sacked after Saturday's 3-0 | :01:23. | :01:33. | |
:01:33. | :01:44. | ||
defeat at Hartlepool. For Late Kick 33 managers you have seen come and | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
go, but it has been an event fall 48 hours. It has. After the game at | :01:50. | :01:58. | |
Hartlepool, as it happens it was our worst performance of the season, | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
but Martin Alan's departure was unrelated to the performance and -- | :02:03. | :02:09. | |
that preceded it. He went for other reasons. Why was he sacked? There | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
has been disquiet of behind-the- scenes for some time. There has | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
been a lack of togetherness between the board of directors and Martin | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
Allen, and both parties would admit that. Things have not been righted | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
between them. Has he been harshly treated? Many will think that. You | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
only have to look at the message boards and there are some | :02:32. | :02:42. | |
incendiary comments about his sacking by Notts County. Keith has | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
been at the ground today. He will be unveiled as the new manager | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
tomorrow. What has been the reaction? The fans are mixed | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
because they would have liked a bigger name, someone who has had a | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
team promoted at this level. He has not done any of that and for that | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
reason, they are not exactly enthusiastic about it. We have seen | :03:03. | :03:12. | |
his backroom staff arriving here today. Colin West and Colin Lee. | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
think it looks a very strong backroom staff, very experienced, | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
and I would like to think it is about the strongest backroom staff | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
any manager have at Notts County. Two Homes game -- home games so he | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
has not got time to settle in. is a big week for Notts County. It | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
could hardly be digger for Keith Kyle. | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
Knowle, Keith is confirmed as the new Notts County manager. What do | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
you think? It is a very good appointment. I am surprised at | :03:51. | :03:58. | |
Marton going. But that said, it is a good appointment. Keith will go | :03:58. | :04:05. | |
on his own now and I am sure that you will put it into good practice. | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
He has been at number two for some time, but a short spell at | :04:09. | :04:17. | |
Mansfield Town. You will have learned to experience from Neil | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
Warnock. Obviously Chris has excelled in the role. It is | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
important that someone's teeth it - - someone gives you that chance and | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
belief. Hopefully he will get the backing of the board and get the | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
boys and revitalised. Team spirit has been low, but they are still in | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
a great position. It is all to play for. How important is consistency | :04:43. | :04:51. | |
as a manager, a coach? Notts County have had 12 managers in 10 years, | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
vitally important that the board make a statement and give him the | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
tools to do the job. They need to put a plan in place. It needs a t a | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
project because everyone suffers, the fans, the system, and obviously | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
the players. Someone needs to come in, keep has the job, give him the | :05:12. | :05:19. | |
tours, two years, let's go for it. He has decent players to work with. | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
They score games -- goals at every level. He will be looking to hit | :05:25. | :05:34. | |
the ground running. Yes, they do play good football. I'm sure he | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
will get his teeth into that. have been a player, a coach, for a | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
long time with the England Under 19 set up. No, I did not want to throw | :05:46. | :05:56. | |
my hat into the ring. It is a tough job. I have work to do it here. | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
have had people like Sol Campbell in gold at Notts County Club. I | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
played against them in the top division. What are the realistic | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
expectations of Notts County fans over the next few years, should | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
they be a need for the championship as much they always say they are a | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
championship club. We did have a brief spell in the top league, but | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
we fell out of it in two years. Notts County should be aiming at | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
the championship. They are not very far of the play-offs so it is all | :06:26. | :06:35. | |
to play for. Finally, good appointment for you? Fantastic. I | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
worked with Neil in Notts County in the early days. I think if Keith is | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
anything like Neil, we will be very happy. | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
Still to come, all the weekend's goals, including a much-needed win | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
for Walsall in their fight to stay in League One. | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
Now to a club I know a thing or two about. After narrowly missing out | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
on promotion in recent seasons, Nottingham Forest are now in a | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
struggle for championship survival. On Saturday, they played host to | :07:00. | :07:10. | |
:07:10. | :07:26. | ||
Coventry City in a tension filled Time is running out now. Winner | :07:26. | :07:33. | |
takes all today. Defeat is unthinkable. | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
This was a game giving Forest manager Steve Cotterrill sleepless | :07:35. | :07:45. | |
:07:45. | :07:51. | ||
Thank you very much. Lovely day! What about Steve - is he under | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
pressure? Well the only pressure he is under is the pressure of the | :07:54. | :08:02. | |
manager to get his team wining matches! -- a winning matches. He | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
is not under pressure from anywhere else. We have to start winning | :08:06. | :08:16. | |
matches sooner or later. Under Cotterill I really do not believe | :08:16. | :08:26. | |
:08:26. | :08:26. | ||
we will go down. Any other manager would have been out by now. We have | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
got to start scoring goals. Coventry were backing their team in | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
big numbers. Nearly 3,000 fans were there. Can you stay up and what | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
will be the key to staying up. fight and a battle until the end of | :08:37. | :08:47. | |
:08:47. | :08:49. | ||
the season. If we stay up, it would be massive. If we use, we will be | :08:49. | :08:59. | |
:08:59. | :09:01. | ||
These players need nerves of steel and strong hearts and minds of | :09:01. | :09:11. | |
:09:11. | :09:13. | ||
today. On what is a chilly day in Nottingham. The Sky Blues have the | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
worst away record in all four divisions but in Alex Nimely a | :09:16. | :09:26. | |
:09:26. | :09:26. | ||
player who can worry defences. a shot by Alex Nimely. Very wild. | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
In honesty the first 45 minutes were forgettable. Tudgay goes so | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
close! At half time Cotterill responded with a double | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
substitution. Blackstock and Findley had the desired effect. | :09:38. | :09:46. | |
It's the post - incredible. Murphy had to be at his bravest and | :09:47. | :09:56. | |
:09:57. | :10:01. | ||
It's the West Midlanders who almost took the lead. But at the other end | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
Garath McCleary went on an astonishing run. Forest come again | :10:05. | :10:15. | |
:10:15. | :10:26. | ||
with McClearly. It's a great run As the minute ebbed away Forest got | :10:26. | :10:36. | |
:10:36. | :10:50. | ||
Lee, big win today. Yes, big win. am pleased for the players and the | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
supporters because they are going home knowing they are out of the | :10:53. | :11:03. | |
:11:03. | :11:05. | ||
bottom three. We were comfortable for long periods in the game. | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
just kept running and running and thankfully things opened for up for | :11:08. | :11:18. | |
:11:18. | :11:23. | ||
me but more importantly we got the So, with Portsmouth deducted ten | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
points, Forest climb out of the bottom three but it's still too | :11:26. | :11:36. | |
:11:36. | :11:40. | ||
tight to call down there. Gentlemen, you are big Forest fans. | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
They could have gone bottom if a bond -- Doncaster Rovers had not | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
been superseded by Leeds United. In terms of Forest moving forward, | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
vitally important three points. was a massive one. Whoever lost | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
that game would have been favourites to go down. | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
Unfortunately Coventry lost it, but hopefully this might give them a | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
bit of team spirit, a kick up the backside and start to climb the | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
table for all stock it has been a tough year for Nottingham Forest on | :12:13. | :12:19. | |
the pitch and with the sad death of a night will. Plenty for Forest to | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
worry about, but on the pitch the players stood up to be counted, | :12:23. | :12:31. | |
especially in the second half. was a big game. When you are facing | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
relegation, it is all hands to the Poms, especially home games we have | :12:36. | :12:44. | |
to get the points. As a former centre half, you will not be to | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
have the with the Coventry defending for the first goal. The | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
ball was picked up on the halfway line, the players saunters through. | :12:53. | :13:03. | |
:13:03. | :13:07. | ||
No, it has gone... New look at the midfield players as well. We all | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
talk about taking one for the team, but if you are fighting for your | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
lives in the division, it is a case of taking one for the team, that is | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
what the pros talk about. Are you surprised at the position of | :13:23. | :13:31. | |
foreign start in? -- Nottingham Forest are in? Plenty of experience | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
in the team so people are looking at them pushing forward for a play- | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
off place. It has been a strange season for them. Especially when | :13:40. | :13:46. | |
you look at last season. We just missed out on the play-offs and in | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
the space of one season, there has been a dramatic turnaround in | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
results and fortunes, financially as well. Hopefully this win might | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
do something to boost their confidence and go a few games | :13:59. | :14:06. | |
without defeat. You read -- heard the fans on our peace there who are | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
not pleased with Steve. We all know what has happened in recent weeks. | :14:10. | :14:19. | |
Is that a good fit for Nottingham Forest football? Not a universal | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
choice for them. It was not a fan favourite at the time. But I can | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
assure you, he will roll up his sleeves and begin and work around | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
the clock to make sure that the football club gets success. | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
Derby County's hopes of closing the gap with the promotion play-off | :14:35. | :14:45. | |
:14:45. | :14:47. | ||
chasing teams were squashed at The Rumsfeld behind. The Derby | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
manager felt the scoreline was harsh on his players. Alan Martin | :14:54. | :15:04. | |
:15:04. | :15:04. | ||
scored Southampton's second. It is 3-0 after 69 minutes. The Japanese | :15:04. | :15:12. | |
player scored a goal. We'd love to hear from you here on Late Kick Off. | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
We're open for business seven days a week on Facebook, and you can | :15:15. | :15:20. | |

Walsall improved their chances of avoiding relegation from League One | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
with a 2-0 victory over fellow strugglers Wycombe Wanderers at the | :15:25. | :15:35. | |
:15:35. | :15:37. | ||
Bescot Stadium. Good pace by the Belgian the youngster. He takes a | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
:15:47. | :15:54. | ||
tumble. Penalty! Saved Again. Clear by Foster. It is in. An incredible | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
finish by Kevin Hurst. Patterson, midway inside the half. He threads | :16:00. | :16:10. | |
They doubled their lead. After three games without a win, | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
Cheltenham are back in form. A 5-0 drubbing of Dagenham and Redbridge | :16:13. | :16:23. | |
:16:23. | :16:25. | ||
is where we start our look at what's been happening in League Two. | :16:25. | :16:35. | |
:16:35. | :16:35. | ||
He swings the corner in. He slams it into the roof of the net. 2-0. | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
So 2-0 to the Robins and soon it was ten men for Dagenham when | :16:39. | :16:49. | |
:16:49. | :16:52. | ||
goalkeeper Chris Lewington was sent A free-kick! Hogan says it. He | :16:52. | :17:02. | |
:17:02. | :17:04. | ||
scores. The 9th of the season. Spencer! Spencer makes it four. | :17:04. | :17:11. | |
Into the net! Mohammed will be claiming that one. Shrewsbury are | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
fourth, two places and two points behind the Robins with a game in | :17:15. | :17:25. | |
:17:25. | :17:29. | ||
hand after a 2-1 win at Barnet. whips it in. It was an own goal! A | :17:29. | :17:39. | |
:17:39. | :17:46. | ||
great save. Good footwork and Scores! 2-0 -- 2-1. His 11th of the | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
season. Port Vale won again but left it late to beat fellow play- | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
off hopefuls Gillingham at Vale Park. | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
A cross in and a goal. Gillingham take a lead. Heading towards the | :18:00. | :18:10. | |
:18:10. | :18:16. | ||
Another teasing cross. That will be a penalty with 90 seconds to go. | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
Marc Richards steps up to it and scores. He sent the goalkeeper the | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
wrong way. Burton Albion have now gone eight games without a win | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
after a draw with Rotherham. Calvin Zola gave them the lead five | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
minutes before half-time but Burton old-boy Shaun Harrad spoiled the | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
Brewers' day. 1-1 the final score. Hereford remain perilously close to | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
the relegation zone after a home defeat against in-form Swindon. | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
Paul Caddis gave Swindon the lead with a penalty and Paul Benson then | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
doubled that advantage. Rob Purdie provided Hereford with some hope | :18:46. | :18:56. | |
:18:56. | :18:58. | ||
but no more than that. After a wobble for Cheltenham Town, a clean | :18:58. | :19:06. | |
sheet and five goals to be good. Very much so. Mark is playing good | :19:06. | :19:16. | |
football. I've seen in a couple of times. To go to Dagenham and win | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
five is a terrific result. Your role with the Football Association | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
at St George's Park is now up and running. How much of the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
championship Leagues One and Two fours into your remit and how many | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
young players are playing down there? We cover all of the leagues | :19:35. | :19:42. | |
which we have to. If the lads are playing we will watch them. They | :19:42. | :19:50. | |
are monitored all the time. We see quite a lot of football. We need to | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
know whether lay -- lads are and how they are performing. Shrewsbury | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
managed to win the game, they have Swindon tomorrow. They cannot | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
leapfrog with a win. A good season for them. They are doing really | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
well. Jaco is the assistant coach. A massive game against Swindon and | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
the one he wins, it's a big push towards what they really want which | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
is promotion. In terms of the bigger clubs like Villa and Wolves | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
and West Brom but it would be fantastic, two teams they could go | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
in automatically. Let's not forget Port Vale and Burton Albion are in | :20:29. | :20:39. | |
:20:39. | :20:39. | ||
the promotion shake-up. Yes, the Midlands... The region it needs the | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
teams to be doing well. Port there have had their ups and downs on and | :20:45. | :20:52. | |
off the field but the final push. St George's Park, lots of talk | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
about it. Is this going to be a place where you as a coach are | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
inspiring young coaches and they get the opportunity to come through. | :21:02. | :21:09. | |
That is the plan. It is well overdue. The leading nations in | :21:09. | :21:15. | |
European football have got those facilities. It is well overdue and | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
looking forward to working there. There's another busy week of League | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
games ahead. In the Championship, Birmingham's bid for an automatic | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
promotion place takes them to Barnsley. In League One, Walsall | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
will move out of the relegation zone if they win at Scunthorpe. And | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
there are two games in League Two with a direct bearing on the | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
congested promotion race. Cheltenham are at home to AFC | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
Wimbledon while Shrewsbury play the first of two games which could | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
define their season. Next Monday, they play Crawley but tomorrow, | :21:39. | :21:47. | |
it's third-placed Swindon. On Wednesday, Notts County entertain | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
Stevenage in League One. And then on Thursday, there's a cracking | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
East Midlands derby in the Championship as Derby host | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
Leicester. There'll be coverage of all those games on your BBC Local | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
Radio stations. Every year, hundreds of aspiring footballers | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
face heartbreak when they're told the won't be getting a contract | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
with a professional club, me included. 21-year-old Chris Smith | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
from Stoke knows what that feels like - he's already been rejected | :22:08. | :22:18. | |
:22:18. | :22:19. | ||
by Everton and Stoke. But Chris had another chance. From 5000 | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
applicants, he made it to the last four of a competition to win a pro | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
contract with League 2 Swindon Town. Last week was the moment of truth - | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
had Chris convinced the Swindon manager Paolo Di Canio. Late Kick | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
Off's Laura May McMullan was with him as he waited for the 'phone | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
call which could change his life. It's the X-Factor of football. | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
Eight months of trials, over 5000 applicants and 21 year-old Chris | :22:38. | :22:45. | |
Smith from Stoke-on-Trent has made it to the last 4. The goal - a | :22:45. | :22:55. | |
professional contract with Swindon Town. It would mean everything. | :22:55. | :23:01. | |
From a young age from playing football, it is something to aim | :23:01. | :23:09. | |
for. It is your dream come true. He's already had a taste of Academy | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
life as a boy with Everton and Stoke City but was released. Every | :23:14. | :23:21. | |
opportunity I get, I try my best. It is like make or break. And who | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
better to give me that chance than the charismatic Italian legend | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
Paolo Di Canio - someone as passionate as a manager as he was | :23:27. | :23:37. | |
:23:37. | :23:38. | ||
as a player. To him a person's spirit is everything. If I see the | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
passion or fire or fight in someone then I immediately feel something | :23:41. | :23:51. | |
:23:51. | :23:51. | ||
for them. They go straight away in my heart. Over a hundred miles away | :23:51. | :23:57. | |
in Swindon he's full of praise for Chris. As a right-back he has a | :23:58. | :24:07. | |
:24:08. | :24:08. | ||
fantastic quality because once again he is a tough defender. | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
so surreal. When I think about how many people entered, 5,500. When | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
you think you are in the final four it is daunting. And he's obviously | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
impressed Di Canio. After numerous trials watched by scouts and | :24:23. | :24:25. | |
coaches, and playing alongside Swindon players - before Christmas | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
he spent a week training with club. Well, there's just half an hour to | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
go before he gets the phone call and obviously it's a day that could | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
With the clock ticking away and the decision on Chris's future edging | :24:39. | :24:49. | |
:24:49. | :25:03. | ||
Hello? Hello. Chris? Hello question mark how are you? This is Paolo Di | :25:03. | :25:11. | |
Canio. Hello, I'm OK? Your new manager, had you feel question mark | :25:11. | :25:19. | |
oh, my God. Yes! Oh, my God. Oh, my God. At 21 he can now start living | :25:19. | :25:29. | |
:25:29. | :25:38. | ||
He was excited! I am very happy because he is a good lad. With the | :25:38. | :25:46. | |
work he has put in to actually trying to achieve this, it is | :25:46. | :25:55. | |
seeing the rewards come back. It is fantastic. I was so thrilled myself | :25:55. | :25:57. | |
I couldn't hide it. Through hard work and determination Chris | :25:57. | :26:07. | |
:26:07. | :26:07. | ||
Smith's life has changed forever. Johnno, 1988 a young up Collymore | :26:07. | :26:13. | |
was released. Wolverhampton Wanderers, if there's a lesson to | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
all of the kids out there, if you do not adverse succeed, there's a | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
way back in. You are testament to that. There are plenty of players | :26:21. | :26:27. | |
what have come back later. Something like Chris, there is a | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
chance. In terms of youngsters, you deal with a lot, at the elite level, | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
there are a lot of knock backs, particularly young kids going | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
through the academy system from eight until 16. How do you prepare | :26:42. | :26:47. | |
them for the downfalls question mark it is an interesting question | :26:47. | :26:53. | |
because it is something football has not catered for long enough in | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
terms of the after-care. There is always an opportunity, keep | :26:59. | :27:06. | |
persevering, football is full of... You look at the professional game | :27:07. | :27:13. | |
and there are opportunities. Never say never. Chris Smith, you are | :27:13. | :27:19. | |
based at the Potteries and you told me about the fact he played for | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
stone Domino's I could not get into the side. He had the conviction to | :27:23. | :27:32. | |
do something else. He is creative. It is hard work. With Paolo Di | :27:32. | :27:38. | |
Canio, I am sure he can go through. Does this prove players develop as | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
well at different ages, not only as a footballer but as a human being | :27:42. | :27:46. | |
as well. He has had not backs from Everton and Stoke and has an | :27:46. | :27:49. | |
opportunity. You can see his enthusiasm for the game | :27:49. | :27:56. | |
undiminished. It's a real opportunity. Yes, and there are | :27:56. | :28:02. | |
players what do come in their late teens and the managers want to | :28:02. | :28:10. | |
instantly... 18-21, the development group. Players like that will | :28:10. | :28:16. | |
benefit. He has a year's contract with Swindon Town. I think we | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
chuckled when we saw Paolo Di Canio and his antics. A decent and | :28:20. | :28:26. | |
passionate manager. Yeah, and we said he is who he is. That is the | :28:26. | :28:31. | |
way he played and managers. He will bring the best out of him. What is | :28:31. | :28:38. | |
your advice to young players baggage released? Keep persevering. | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
Stick to your beliefs and never give up. Excellent stuff. Well | :28:41. | :28:44. |
