Good things may come in "freeze", but not much football did. Still, | 0:00:01 | 0:00:04 | |
we salute all the games that did, just about, survive the big chill | 0:00:04 | 0:00:14 | |
0:00:14 | 0:00:28 | ||
Pitch perfect, as freezing weather plays havoc with the weekend's | 0:00:28 | 0:00:32 | |
fixtures. Are artificial pitches the solution? | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
Falling faster than the temperature, play-acting players, conning | 0:00:34 | 0:00:40 | |
referees. The Knowledge. This week - the game | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
within a game, as attacker and defender play cat and mouse. Miaow! | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
And all aboard at the only League Two game to go ahead this weekend, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:55 | |
as Plymouth harbour more comeback Hello, thanks for joining us. Not | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
the easiest weekend for football, with only six of our 17 teams | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
getting a game, but rest assured we've got all the action that did | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
survive. Plus, Graeme Murty and Leroy Rosenior in especially feisty | 0:01:04 | 0:01:13 | |
mood. Hello to you both. Hello. The first thing we're going to talk | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
about is the weather. With 17 games frozen off this weekend across the | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
Football League, there's a growing belief among many in the game that | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
the best solution to weekends like the last is artificial pitches. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
Should we put it on plastic? Wycombe Wanderers are among those | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
leading the campaign to go artificial. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
And up North, rugby league are among those who already feel | 0:01:30 | 0:01:36 | |
plastic is fantastic. As soccer matches fell by the wayside, Super | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
League team Widnes beat the weather this weekend, playing their first | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
competitive match on a brand new artificial surface. Tony Husband | 0:01:42 | 0:01:49 | |
reports on football's reluctance to join the fans of plastic. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:54 | |
Football's reticence to embrace plastic must surely be down to the | 0:01:54 | 0:01:59 | |
controversial 1980s foray into Astroturf. Several teams or went | 0:01:59 | 0:02:04 | |
plastic. Away team players were caught unawares by the strange | 0:02:05 | 0:02:12 | |
bounce. He completely missed judged that on this at less than familiar | 0:02:13 | 0:02:18 | |
surface. There were allegations that it game the home team too much | 0:02:18 | 0:02:23 | |
of an advantage. The experiment soon lapsed. What comes a | 0:02:23 | 0:02:28 | |
technology has moved the goalposts. Third generation science makes the | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
artificial service -- surface picture-perfect. The bounce is | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
realistic, the surface is forgiving and it can bring financial benefits. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:43 | |
When people particularly in the lower leagues look for | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
opportunities for income revenue, they need closer community | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
relationships and a consistent playing surface. If plastic did | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
exist, how much more revenue and Saturday afternoon entertainment | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
would become a reality this weekend? -- would have become a | 0:02:59 | 0:03:07 | |
reality? Snow we pictures. First of all, how | 0:03:07 | 0:03:13 | |
different was it? It was totally different. It was horrendous and we | 0:03:13 | 0:03:22 | |
had a massive advantage at QPR. You had burns all over your legs. I am | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
shocked many players have long term injuries. I have had 12 operations | 0:03:26 | 0:03:31 | |
on my knees. We certainly do not want pictures like that. Graeme, | 0:03:31 | 0:03:36 | |
you are used to working on third generation pictures? It is better, | 0:03:36 | 0:03:41 | |
more forgiving. You can turn, cut, the bounce is very good. I am not | 0:03:41 | 0:03:45 | |
sure I would want to be on it all the time but I understand the | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
argument in terms of revenue generation. We are talking about a | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
consistent playing surface. None of the games in the Premier League | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
were called off due to bad weather this weekend. It is a good idea for | 0:03:57 | 0:04:03 | |
some people but we do not think it is fair unless everyone has it. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
Shouldn't you have the choice? At the moment the FA say you cannot | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
have it. There was a meeting in November in which they debated the | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
issue and there is a lot of talk it will be brought up next week when | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
maybe there will be a vote about whether clubs should be allowed to | 0:04:18 | 0:04:23 | |
go ahead. If you have an artificial pitch, you will see the same sort | 0:04:23 | 0:04:28 | |
of thing week in week out. We do not want the game to be false. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
like the variable? I like that some pictures are slow and sometimes it | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
is white and all of the variables you get with different sorts of | 0:04:35 | 0:04:43 | |
weather. If you put messy on the pit, he would still be the best | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
player in the world. We are trying to make an enjoyable professional | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
game that is sustainable. What about the games that do not go | 0:04:50 | 0:04:57 | |
ahead at all? Swindon lost Tibetan and maybe they are going to look at | 0:04:57 | 0:05:03 | |
this depending on what happens next week. I would like every team to | 0:05:03 | 0:05:09 | |
have underfloor heating. The FA could put money aside to get that. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
There is still the problem of getting to the game which you | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
cannot do a lot about. There is the argument about revenue but I think | 0:05:16 | 0:05:21 | |
it is a shrine. Trouble bridge is a shrine. You should not have Sunday | 0:05:21 | 0:05:25 | |
teams playing week-in week-out. It is a professional game. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
Economically, there is a massive advantage of being able to use your | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
pitch throughout the week. understand that argument but my | 0:05:32 | 0:05:37 | |
point is, I do not think they are good enough yet. Not even the 4th | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
generation ones? Not yet, not for me anyway. You can continue the | 0:05:42 | 0:05:48 | |
debate if you have a view on Twitter. In the meantime, here is | 0:05:48 | 0:05:55 | |
what is coming up. We have got all the action from the weekend, all | 0:05:55 | 0:06:05 | |
0:06:05 | 0:06:11 | ||
six games. We have players who do not play fair and why it Murts is a | 0:06:11 | 0:06:16 | |
big girl's blouse. And we have The Knowledge. TV gold. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
Right now, a little less conversation and more action with | 0:06:20 | 0:06:29 | |
our League Two round-up. Here is a list of the weekend's games. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:34 | |
Plymouth against Southend. Do not forget the only game in | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
League Two. After going behind within a minute, Plymouth | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
supporters would have wished they have not bothered. The second after | 0:06:41 | 0:06:51 | |
0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | ||
poor defending as well players in a sometimes like buses, you get one | 0:06:54 | 0:07:04 | |
0:07:04 | 0:07:08 | ||
and another one comes along Plymouth Argyle looking at an | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
allegation that they sell them player was racially abused during | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
the match. The clubs say they are conducting a thorough investigation | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
into the complaints. Meantime, they came back from the gates of hell | 0:07:19 | 0:07:29 | |
0:07:29 | 0:07:30 | ||
there. They did not play well. When you are not playing well, that is | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
when you find out about their spirit and whether they have desire | 0:07:34 | 0:07:38 | |
and hard to get back into the game. They did. We knew it was going to | 0:07:38 | 0:07:43 | |
be a tough game. We made it tough on ourselves being 2-0 down. It | 0:07:43 | 0:07:48 | |
shows the character we have to come back so late on. We have got spirit. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:53 | |
You find a lot out about people when things are not going well. It | 0:07:53 | 0:07:58 | |
shows that the lads are fighting to the death whatever happens. Carl | 0:07:58 | 0:08:04 | |
Fletcher there. Still one. From safety at the bottom of League Two. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:08 | |
Three games from the championship starting with Bristol City against | 0:08:08 | 0:08:18 | |
0:08:18 | 0:08:36 | ||
Leeds. Commentary from Brendan James Wilson is the last man. The | 0:08:36 | 0:08:40 | |
referee has a decision to make... James Wilson is being called over | 0:08:41 | 0:08:46 | |
by the referee. He gets a straight red card. Ross McCormack races | 0:08:46 | 0:08:55 | |
plena. The referee has sent him off. -- Ross McCormack was racing clean. | 0:08:55 | 0:09:00 | |
This could be a decision for the referee year. Bristol City could be | 0:09:00 | 0:09:10 | |
0:09:10 | 0:09:10 | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | 0:09:10 | 0:09:50 | |
reduced to nine men. He has fouled is a card coming as well here. What | 0:09:50 | 0:10:00 | |
0:10:00 | 0:10:05 | ||
colour will it be? A yellow card for Daniel Fox. David Murphy... | 0:10:05 | 0:10:13 | |
That was close. That was Birmingham's first real chance of a | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
long time. The keeper had to watch this. They are very good a save | 0:10:17 | 0:10:24 | |
from the Southampton's number one. Daniel Fox looking for Rickie | 0:10:24 | 0:10:34 | |
0:10:34 | 0:10:39 | ||
Lambert. Billy Sharp... He blocked a wave. Chris Burke, he has had a | 0:10:39 | 0:10:44 | |
strong game. He is now going to go outside of Daniel Fox. He will get | 0:10:44 | 0:10:51 | |
a free kick. Daniel Fox comes across here. He did not win the | 0:10:51 | 0:11:01 | |
0:11:01 | 0:11:16 | ||
might have been a touch light and the assistant on the side is waving | 0:11:16 | 0:11:26 | |
0:11:26 | 0:11:33 | ||
in trouble here. The referee again reaches for his pocket. And | 0:11:33 | 0:11:43 | |
0:11:43 | 0:11:51 | ||
Brighton I a man down as well. -- I Buckley. He gets his 7th this | 0:11:51 | 0:11:58 | |
season and was created by the centre. He has had plenty of | 0:11:58 | 0:12:08 | |
0:12:08 | 0:12:26 | ||
injuries since starting for men. That is how it leaves the | 0:12:26 | 0:12:32 | |
NPower Championship. Brighton have up to 10th and Bristol City six | 0:12:32 | 0:12:40 | |
Disappointment for Saints against Birmingham, showed that game have | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
been played? Not for me, I don't think so. I think he should have | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
been. Nothing wrong with it. Why do you think it should not have been | 0:12:48 | 0:12:54 | |
played? Looking at the safety of the players, it was not conducive. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
Leroy is thinking old school. have seen terrible pitches but they | 0:12:57 | 0:13:01 | |
should have played with a red ball but just get on with it, it could | 0:13:01 | 0:13:07 | |
have been a good game. Sometimes it isn't, that is what happens. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:11 | |
Sometimes you get dubious decision from the referee. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
Now, Extra Time. Throughout the season we'll be taking one of the | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
game's big issues, sticking 90 seconds on the clock, and letting | 0:13:17 | 0:13:21 | |
Leroy Graham and myself go at it. Today, tumbling, taking a dive, | 0:13:21 | 0:13:23 | |
simulation, players playing up and getting fellow pros sent off. It's | 0:13:23 | 0:13:26 | |
a debate that's been heightened this weekend by Stoke manager Tony | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
Pulis, well known to several clubs here in the region, who's demanded | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
that the players' union, the PFA, get involved by coming down heavily | 0:13:32 | 0:13:38 | |
on offenders. On our patch, did a Bristol City | 0:13:38 | 0:13:43 | |
player get his marching orders because of Leeds play-acting? Look | 0:13:44 | 0:13:50 | |
at Leeds forward Ross McCormack. He's fouled, yes - now watch him. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:54 | |
Running to the ref to plead with him to get City's player red-carded. | 0:13:54 | 0:14:00 | |
Or Southampton's Daniel Fox at Birmingham. The first of his two | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
yellows for this tackle. You'd think Chris Burke's ankle might | 0:14:03 | 0:14:07 | |
feel a bit sore, but no. He's got a headache too. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
What's to be done? There's 90 seconds for Leroy Graham and myself | 0:14:10 | 0:14:14 | |
to find the answer. See who YOU agree with and let us know on | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
Facebook and Twitter. Graeme will probably be keeping score. I'm | 0:14:17 | 0:14:24 | |
starting. From the referee's perspective, and I will say... | 0:14:24 | 0:14:28 | |
Starting now! I will say stop giving the players the benefit of | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
the doubt because they will only abuse the trust and start reviewing | 0:14:32 | 0:14:37 | |
all video evidence whether you have seen it or not. Assimilation, look | 0:14:37 | 0:14:44 | |
back at it afterwards and if anybody is doing this, winning | 0:14:44 | 0:14:50 | |
penalties is one thing. You can never do that with simulation. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
you want to review it, it will be simple because you can't tell if a | 0:14:53 | 0:14:58 | |
player is simulating. Sometimes it is obvious but sometimes it is not. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:06 | |
If my players get touched, I want my players to go down. I may lose | 0:15:06 | 0:15:12 | |
my job and my mortgage if we do not get the three points. We have to be | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
professional and do what we can to gain advantage over the team. My | 0:15:15 | 0:15:22 | |
manager is telling me to do it and we might not like it but we are not | 0:15:22 | 0:15:27 | |
here to make your job easy, we are here to win. It is the referee's | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
job to make sure that you are not wrecking the spectacle and the game | 0:15:30 | 0:15:35 | |
and the Careers of your fellow professionals. It is the decision | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
at the time. It could be the difference between winning and | 0:15:38 | 0:15:45 | |
losing. If it benefits us, we would not be bothered. It is not our job | 0:15:45 | 0:15:49 | |
to make it an edifying spectacle. And if we win, the fans go home | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
happy as well as the players. when you cheat... | 0:15:53 | 0:16:03 | |
0:16:03 | 0:16:04 | ||
I am so glad we had this chat. If there's anything you'd like us | 0:16:04 | 0:16:14 | |
0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | ||
to debate in Extra Time, you know Back to the action, with what | 0:16:16 | 0:16:26 | |
0:16:26 | 0:16:31 | ||
happened in League One starting yourself but you can when you | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
concede five goals. But Wycombe showed fantastic character to get | 0:16:34 | 0:16:39 | |
back in the game led by Gareth Ainsworth, here in the centre | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
circle and he leads the drive to get ahead of the ball on matches on | 0:16:42 | 0:16:47 | |
to what has to be not a great pass. You need quality and that is what | 0:16:47 | 0:16:57 | |
0:16:57 | 0:17:04 | ||
bad cross his, straight on the head unlucky not to score an own goal | 0:17:04 | 0:17:10 | |
here. There is no substitute for experience. We come out of the | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
relegation zone. And they are right behind Yeovil | 0:17:12 | 0:17:18 | |
now. Third consecutive away defeat for the Glovers. Yeovil got him for | 0:17:18 | 0:17:23 | |
but unfortunately it was eclipsed by this strike. The goalkeeper had | 0:17:23 | 0:17:28 | |
no chance with that one but we do feel a bit of luck with that save. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:37 | |
We come out of the bottom four. Just a point behind Exeter and | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
Yeovil. Gareth Ainsworth, extraordinary, still going strong | 0:17:40 | 0:17:47 | |
at 38. All the other? Were in of him on the show, a fantastic | 0:17:47 | 0:17:54 | |
catalyst for his team. -- all the younger? He has a desire but then a | 0:17:54 | 0:17:58 | |
bit of desire, put it on a plate and get himself in the box so he is | 0:17:59 | 0:18:04 | |
fit and strong. He decides that he wants a go war himself. And his | 0:18:04 | 0:18:11 | |
celebrations have got a bit more genteel -- he was a go for himself. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:17 | |
He has got a career as a rock musician. He does not need one, he | 0:18:17 | 0:18:21 | |
can keep going because he is an amazing athlete. I take my hat off | 0:18:21 | 0:18:25 | |
to him. A cult hero. Interesting to hear Murts's moral | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
ambivalence on the whole play- acting issue earlier on. No great | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
surprise given that this week's The Knowledge sees him descend into the | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
dark arts himself this week. Ethics? That's just an area east of | 0:18:34 | 0:18:43 | |
London to you, Murts, isn't it? resent that, I am a moral man. And | 0:18:43 | 0:18:49 | |
this week we will use Fletch to gain an advantage to make defenders | 0:18:49 | 0:18:57 | |
play where the centre forward wants to play. Let's intimidating style, | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
and I gave him tips to cope with such a big unit as Fletcher. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:10 | |
0:19:10 | 0:19:15 | ||
Give yourself a yard, push away, it gives you a chance to come want the | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
ball, and if you take a bad touch, it pushes the defender two yards, | 0:19:19 | 0:19:24 | |
come forward two yards. You have got a gap for any mistakes. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:30 | |
You are just holding him, and there it is, back in. All the sudden you | 0:19:30 | 0:19:37 | |
are hauled in the opposition. And He doesn't get everything his own | 0:19:37 | 0:19:47 | |
0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | ||
I will try to take myself a way out of his vision. We will play cat and | 0:19:50 | 0:19:58 | |
I am not comfortable, I like to know where the centre half is. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:08 | |
0:20:08 | 0:20:09 | ||
up in front and bang. And that takes away as he tries to dominate | 0:20:09 | 0:20:19 | |
0:20:19 | 0:20:19 | ||
physically. Yes, Fred. Well done. Perfect. Instead of that pinning | 0:20:19 | 0:20:23 | |
sensation, we talk about Freddie dictating the terms of engagement. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:33 | |
0:20:33 | 0:20:34 | ||
You could see me coming in and you took it off me. Nothing worse. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:39 | |
are not in the business of playing games that we lose. If we do, we do | 0:20:39 | 0:20:49 | |
0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | ||
Not easy, is it? The higher up you go, the smaller the margins become. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:58 | |
But I don't want the game played on Fletcher's terms. It makes his job | 0:20:58 | 0:21:05 | |
easier. But I need to field a defender because otherwise he could | 0:21:06 | 0:21:09 | |
smash through the back of me. That was allowed in my days. You give | 0:21:09 | 0:21:14 | |
him a note, give him a bit of space, and then you don't get injured. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:20 | |
Create uncertainty. Absolutely. Moving along, we may be in the | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
depths of midwinter but we could be a few weeks away only from a moment | 0:21:24 | 0:21:30 | |
of glory for one of our teams. Swindon Town, who are just one game | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
away from walking out at Wembley. They play Barnet at the County | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
Ground tomorrow night for a place in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
final. So far their southern area final stands at 1-1. Aidan Flint | 0:21:38 | 0:21:42 | |
put Swindon ahead at Barnet. Only for Mark Hughes to equalise in the | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
second half. It may be a minor trophy, but it counts as a mark of | 0:21:45 | 0:21:48 | |
real progress for a new management team. And, of course, it's the | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
chance for the town of Swindon to enjoy a Wembley day out for the | 0:21:52 | 0:22:02 | |
0:22:02 | 0:22:03 | ||
The game was postponed like so many at the weekend but they still | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
kicked off on Saturday afternoon. A training session in interesting | 0:22:07 | 0:22:11 | |
conditions. Although the Mediterranean maestro, de Canio, | 0:22:11 | 0:22:21 | |
0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | ||
While his passion for skill and flair is so very evident... What is | 0:22:23 | 0:22:28 | |
not so well nine is his work ethic. At first, I think it took the boys | 0:22:28 | 0:22:36 | |
by shock because they are used to getting Wednesdays and Sundays off. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:42 | |
But he expects people to be working hard and that is what it has been | 0:22:42 | 0:22:47 | |
like. It has witnessed many changes. The weather, the training | 0:22:47 | 0:22:51 | |
facilities and the backroom staff a far cry from the last out that he | 0:22:51 | 0:23:01 | |
0:23:01 | 0:23:01 | ||
went in search of Wembley glory Swindon prepared for Wembley in a | 0:23:01 | 0:23:05 | |
warm weather. Yet Simon ferry is the only outfield player who | 0:23:05 | 0:23:09 | |
survives from what seems like another age. When, but fitting the | 0:23:09 | 0:23:19 | |
0:23:19 | 0:23:19 | ||
occasion, his team-mates enjoyed It was a squad remained full of | 0:23:19 | 0:23:25 | |
banter, motivation and confidence. Thousands were there. The town of | 0:23:25 | 0:23:30 | |
Swindon had emptied for the day. And if it was not for Wembley's | 0:23:30 | 0:23:38 | |
infamous tape at the time, as Charlie Austin skied the ball, | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
perhaps the result would have been different as Millwall man at 1-0 | 0:23:42 | 0:23:48 | |
promotion winners. -- run out 1-0. Everybody was macro to play at | 0:23:48 | 0:23:58 | |
0:23:58 | 0:23:59 | ||
Wembley. Hopefully we can put it They have witnessed one relegation, | 0:23:59 | 0:24:06 | |
the part -- the departure of two managers as well as players. And | 0:24:06 | 0:24:11 | |
they have got a new captain. Hopefully we can work up the steps | 0:24:11 | 0:24:19 | |
and pick up the trophy but we are not there yet, when two we need to | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
respect Barnett. It will be tough. We will see what happens on Tuesday | 0:24:22 | 0:24:29 | |
I bet Charlie often wishes they had an artificial pitch at Wembley. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:34 | |
What do you reckon? We have finished, put it to bed! They were, | 0:24:34 | 0:24:44 | |
0:24:44 | 0:24:45 | ||
you were the -- you were involved in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
They will not trade that, the experience of play Wembley for | 0:24:48 | 0:24:52 | |
anything. That was the catalyst on the upward spiral for the club. I | 0:24:52 | 0:25:01 | |
think that will happen to Swindon. You can't beat it. And it just | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
breed confidence. As soon as you get the first trophy, you win | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
something and then you think you can do anything, invincible. That | 0:25:08 | 0:25:12 | |
is what happened with Southampton do and I'm sure it will happen with | 0:25:12 | 0:25:16 | |
Swindon. Any thoughts on power Canio there in the temperatures? | 0:25:17 | 0:25:22 | |
still had the coat and gloves. He is not as hard as people think. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:25 | |
is Italian! Swindon not the only team with | 0:25:25 | 0:25:28 | |
their eye on Wembley. Saints in action this week in the FA Cup, in | 0:25:28 | 0:25:32 | |
a 4th round replay. In the Championship it's Birmingham versus | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
Portsmouth. Also Bournemouth versus Exeter in League One, and in League | 0:25:34 | 0:25:44 | |
0:25:44 | 0:25:45 | ||
A couple of things before we go. One is the fantastic former | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
Scotland winger Tommy Hutchison, who had a half-time presentation at | 0:25:48 | 0:25:52 | |
Bristol City this weekend. Tommy's just retired as community officer | 0:25:52 | 0:25:57 | |
at Bristol City. And you may remember the extraordinary impact | 0:25:57 | 0:26:05 | |
he made when we featured him on Late Kick Off two years ago. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:10 | |
think probably I got more satisfaction out of the last 11 | 0:26:10 | 0:26:14 | |
games that have been here at the club, working with the schoolkids | 0:26:14 | 0:26:18 | |
and changing their lives through football ban probably what I did | 0:26:18 | 0:26:25 | |
when I actually played the game. I know for a fact that it is what | 0:26:25 | 0:26:30 | |
they have in their lives. I am probably the straightest person | 0:26:30 | 0:26:35 | |
they meet. But once you have given those guidelines to them, I find | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
there's very few that will break them. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:47 | |
0:26:47 | 0:26:49 | ||
Leroy, it's been great to have you Thousands of young men have been | 0:26:49 | 0:26:53 | |
through the system with Tommy. And they will be better people and | 0:26:53 | 0:26:58 | |
footballers. That is what Tommy was about. And his work is continuing? | 0:26:58 | 0:27:02 | |
Yes, he has left in a good state and weather takes over has got a | 0:27:02 | 0:27:11 | |
good foundation. It has been great to have you back, mirror. -- Leroy. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:15 | |
Some say Leroy's been serving a bit of a two-week ban for rough play. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
But, after all that play-acting talk earlier, I'm wondering if it | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
was really merited. Have a look at this if you're not faint-hearted. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:23 | |
Here's Murts and Leroy filming the titles for our match analysis, | 0:27:23 | 0:27:27 | |
which you've been seeing over the last few weeks. But what you didn't | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
see was this. When we filmed this, Murts had a broken wrist. But he'd | 0:27:30 | 0:27:40 | |
0:27:40 | 0:27:56 | ||
taken the bandage off to look It is not funny! | 0:27:56 | 0:28:06 | |
0:28:06 | 0:28:07 | ||
It is the same noise... When you went down against wingers, that is | 0:28:07 | 0:28:11 | |
the noisy made. They did that, not me. Is your wrist better now, | 0:28:11 | 0:28:18 | |
Graham? Yes, it is fine. You can see that again on Twitter and our | 0:28:18 | 0:28:27 | |
Facebook Page. Many thanks to Graeme Murty and Leroy Rosenior, | 0:28:27 | 0:28:35 |
