:00:24. > :00:28.tonight, and every goal. I'm Tony We're told he made George Best look
:00:28. > :00:34.like a choirboy. A hell-raising Reading legend of the '70s will be
:00:34. > :00:37.immortalised by Hollywood. Find out why.
:00:37. > :00:44.Bristol City are all but down and their fans are ready to face the
:00:44. > :00:48.consequences. Doomed now! But having said that, we've seen it all before!
:00:48. > :00:53.The player who left City is firing Bournemouth up now. His manager
:00:53. > :01:01.joins us in the studio. So does a boss who might not be on gardening
:01:01. > :01:08.Along with Eddie Howe on the sofa, Ady Williams. He was a Reading
:01:08. > :01:12.legend, too. Not sure you're a drugs and rock 'n' roll kinda guy! We
:01:12. > :01:16.might find out differently, though! But first up, we let Bristol City
:01:16. > :01:23.fans have their say. Their side is all but relegated from the
:01:23. > :01:33.depending on results this Tuesday. And already the City faithful say
:01:33. > :01:33.
:01:33. > :01:37.Pratley into the edge of the area, plays a little 1-2. Chance for a
:01:37. > :01:40.left-footed cross to the near post. Goes all the way through! And it's
:01:40. > :01:43.an own-goal off Liam Fontaine. Sean's doing a good job with what
:01:43. > :01:46.he's got. That's all he can do. needs a season in the next division,
:01:46. > :01:49.lower division, to create a new team, I think.
:01:49. > :01:53.He pushes it into the path of De Lonzo but he's dallied on the ball
:01:53. > :01:56.and allowed him to get back. It's come to Davis, and Davis scores the
:01:56. > :02:02.equaliser for City. The top scorer! Laid on a plate for him by Albert
:02:02. > :02:05.Adoma. I think we're down. I think most of the fans have given in.
:02:05. > :02:09.Doomed now! But having said that, we've seen it all before.
:02:09. > :02:12.Flicks it foward and down on his chest. Bates tries to get there. The
:02:12. > :02:15.referee's assistant has given the penalty kick. And this could be
:02:15. > :02:18.curtains for City's season. It's a hard division, the next one down.
:02:18. > :02:21.Everybody seems to think it'll be a walk in the park. It's not going to
:02:21. > :02:31.be like that, is it? Next season, play-offs mininum. Otherwise there's
:02:31. > :02:32.
:02:32. > :02:37.going to be a lot of disgruntled people.
:02:37. > :02:39.I think there's an acceptance Bristol City will be a lower league
:02:40. > :02:43.club, League One next season. Eddie Howe, you played under Sean
:02:43. > :02:52.O'Driscoll. How's his mind working right now? Is he planning for League
:02:52. > :02:58.One? He will be trying to build a squad and looking to get promotion.
:02:58. > :03:03.What are some of the keys to what he has done and why he is successful?
:03:03. > :03:06.He works extremely hard. He is extremely successful and is one of
:03:06. > :03:10.the best coaches I've worked with. He is a meticulous planner and Hill
:03:10. > :03:17.get Bristol City prepared for the next season. You've learnt a lot of
:03:17. > :03:21.him -- from him over the season? Yes. Learn to massive amount of him
:03:21. > :03:25.both on and off the peach. Well, that's what Eddie thinks.
:03:25. > :03:32.So what do you think? If you tweet, you can continue the debate online
:03:32. > :03:38.at Tony Husband BBC on City's misfortunes. Got some already.
:03:38. > :03:42.Andy says, this season is over for Bristol City. Another, I hope City
:03:42. > :03:47.will be straight into the promotion picture in League One. Were about to
:03:48. > :03:50.be the big fish again. And Russell adds he wants a first-round win in
:03:50. > :03:53.all three cups, agreeing with that as well.
:03:53. > :03:56.We'll talk Brighton in a moment. Moving up the table and looking
:03:56. > :03:59.play-off bound. Plus, Bournemouth storm to victory
:03:59. > :04:02.as the promotion push continues at Shrewsbury, and Eddie has his say.
:04:02. > :04:06.Former Plymouth and Torquay boss Neil Warnock on the run-in and his
:04:06. > :04:11.future in football. And how the Reading player that lit
:04:12. > :04:14.a fire through the '70s is about to be immortalised by Hollywood.
:04:14. > :04:18.We complete the Championship with Brighton, who are scrapping for
:04:18. > :04:21.points at just the right time. They're fifth and the play-offs are
:04:21. > :04:29.beckoning. With a much needed victory at Middlesbro which followed
:04:29. > :04:35.three straight draws. We will take a look at the action. Eddie, what
:04:35. > :04:41.makes a Poyet team unique? I think his philosophy. I've got a lot of
:04:41. > :04:44.time for Brighton and how they play the game and how he sets the game up
:04:44. > :04:49.for them. A fantastic football team and I think they could go all the
:04:49. > :04:57.way. This style of his. It is certainly flamboyant and it seems to
:04:57. > :05:02.work. Absolutely. He was a former team-mate of mine at Swindon, very
:05:02. > :05:06.passionate. Confident and he really has that passion. You can see it
:05:06. > :05:12.with his hand signals towards the travelling supporters! A terrific
:05:12. > :05:16.season under him. Does his style of play mean Brighton would adapt to
:05:17. > :05:21.the Premier League better than some? I think so. I look at Swansea, a
:05:21. > :05:24.team who have played really good football in the championship and
:05:24. > :05:28.they stepped up to the Premier League and made that transitionary
:05:28. > :05:32.well. I think Brighton could do the same thing. -- made that transition
:05:32. > :05:36.really well. A Late Kick Off exclusive now, at a
:05:36. > :05:39.remarkable meeting. Hollywood feature film producers have come to
:05:39. > :05:43.the region in search of the widow and daughter of a player who blazed
:05:43. > :05:49.a short but firey trail across the 1970s. That's before his untimely
:05:49. > :05:52.death. Who is he? Well, a book about this star was called The Greatest
:05:52. > :05:55.Player You Never Saw. It was co-written by the Oasis bass player,
:05:55. > :05:58.by the way. The player in question was Robin Friday, whose legend
:05:58. > :06:00.simply grows and grows. Especially when film producers come calling.
:06:00. > :06:04.And Late Kick Off cameras joined them.
:06:04. > :06:07.Back in the game again... evening crowd are in at the Spread
:06:07. > :06:10.Eagle pub. Across the road now stand several blocks of flats, but once
:06:10. > :06:13.that was Reading's old ground Elm Park. Inside one corner of the bar
:06:13. > :06:18.this evening there's a new crowd. Now, their usual watering hole is
:06:18. > :06:21.5,500 miles away in Hollywood. America? An unknown footballer from
:06:21. > :06:26.some bizarre place in Britain? You're having a laugh, aren't ya?
:06:26. > :06:29.Yeah. Well, the strange thing is, had it been, say, Georgie Best or
:06:29. > :06:32.Stan Bowles, or any of those other characters, they're very known.
:06:32. > :06:35.There's lots of footage about them. Whereas the mystery of this guy is
:06:35. > :06:40.really what makes it really interesting. He did it. He followed
:06:40. > :06:43.his dream, played football. He also lived life to the full. Robin Friday
:06:43. > :06:49.played for Reading between 1973 and '76 in the lower leagues, beguiling
:06:49. > :06:52.both the defences he would face and the people he would meet. He even
:06:52. > :06:56.kissed a policeman in celebration of one of his special goals. And there
:06:56. > :06:59.are many, many more stories that the writers have collected. Clive Thomas
:06:59. > :07:03.tells the story that it was this sort of very straight Welsh referee
:07:03. > :07:11.and Robin Friday scores this goal, and Clive Thomas looks at it and he
:07:11. > :07:15.applauds, and the referee starts clapping in the middle of the game.
:07:15. > :07:18.Charlie goes and sits him down, and he goes, Robin, I'm putting you in
:07:18. > :07:22.the first team. You're playing against Northampton. We're playing
:07:22. > :07:25.them at home. You're in. And Robin says to Charlie, that's great. You
:07:25. > :07:30.know what, boss? I won't drink, I won't fight, I won't go with any
:07:30. > :07:34.women between now and the game. And Charlie went, Robin, you can lie to
:07:34. > :07:39.me once. Not three times. Drink, drugs - you name it, he embraced
:07:39. > :07:44.very many things to the max, dying aged just 38. A flawed hero whose
:07:44. > :07:48.attitude was shaped quite probably by one event. When he was 21, he
:07:48. > :07:52.used to work on the roofs, doing asphalting, and he slipped one day
:07:52. > :07:58.and he went down onto a stake. And it missed his lung and his heart by
:07:58. > :08:02.about that much. And, you know, we think that maybe that kind of
:08:02. > :08:05.sparked it. That he thought, you know what? It's fragile. Life is so
:08:05. > :08:10.fragile. You know, you get one chance. His pre-season preparation
:08:10. > :08:14.was unique. He's got a plastic bag and his boots are in there, and he's
:08:14. > :08:18.got long hair and he's dishevelled. And he's obviously been... Whatever
:08:18. > :08:22.he's been doing for six weeks in Cornwall. And he puts on his boots
:08:22. > :08:25.and Morris said he was the best player out on that pitch. And these
:08:25. > :08:31.guys had trained for six weeks. And Robin was just...the best player
:08:31. > :08:35.there. Where had he been?He'd been on a hippy commune in Cornwall.
:08:35. > :08:41.Even if he wasn't playing well, he gave 100% every game. He never
:08:41. > :08:44.shirked. He always gave 100%. And fans love that in a player. Mining
:08:44. > :08:49.one of the richest seams of sporting folklore is one thing, but two
:08:49. > :08:52.people are key to this flying visit. This is Mike. Mike, hello. Robin's
:08:52. > :08:59.former wife and daughter are meeting the film producers for the first
:08:59. > :09:05.time. Good to meet you. Actually, you know what? The story just got
:09:05. > :09:08.bigger and bigger. We knew we had it... With them comes a scrapbook
:09:08. > :09:18.and another find - this photo capturing the moment just after
:09:18. > :09:24.
:09:24. > :09:30.Robin had proposed to Lisa. He'd women were concerned, he had all of
:09:30. > :09:33.it rolled into one. Do you know what I mean? Which is why...he wasn't
:09:33. > :09:37.really the man to marry! Although he was really the man to marry. People
:09:37. > :09:40.just want us to tell them anything we might know that can add to
:09:40. > :09:43.whatever they already know. And I think it's wonderful to have been
:09:43. > :09:46.privileged enough to have actually been his wife and have children and
:09:46. > :09:52.be, you know, asked all this time later about so many different
:09:52. > :09:55.things. Reading Football Club has never forgotten this enigma. He's in
:09:55. > :10:00.the current Hall of Fame and voted Player of the Millennium by the
:10:00. > :10:04.fans. I didn't really know what to say but when I got up I just raised
:10:04. > :10:08.a glass to my dad and I'm so chuffed cos he got a standing ovation.
:10:08. > :10:11.They're also giving the film the thumbs-up. If a woman wants a bad
:10:11. > :10:14.boy and a rugged boy and a personality and charisma all rolled
:10:14. > :10:20.into one then I couldn't have been luckier. Of course there were down
:10:20. > :10:23.sides but who wants to remember the down sides? And it's all here, the
:10:23. > :10:33.movie-makers hope, in this film script. But that's going back to LA
:10:33. > :10:35.
:10:35. > :10:44.right now, under lock and key. A great story ready to be told by
:10:44. > :10:48.Hollywood. I know you got a great story about him?
:10:48. > :10:51.And a sense of how the stories about this man are cherished. For Ady, a
:10:51. > :10:56.story at the that pub that goes he'd have a beer before kick-off, leave
:10:56. > :10:59.his pint mug on the bar, go over the road, play the game and come back to
:10:59. > :11:02.the pub and pick up his glass and keep drinking. If you were to be
:11:02. > :11:05.featured in a movie, which actor would play you? I've got to be
:11:05. > :11:08.honest, a bit of an action man. I'll go for Daniel Craig.
:11:08. > :11:11.We asked for Robin memories on our Facebook page and got this from
:11:11. > :11:15.Stephen Hunt. He wrote about watching the shot which missed the
:11:15. > :11:19.goal and knocked a young fan off his feet. He says Robin leapt the wall,
:11:19. > :11:23.clambered up the terrace to help and apologise to him and his dad! He
:11:23. > :11:27.says he was a real one-off and true entertainer. So we kept digging on
:11:27. > :11:33.social media. And here's what we found. The boy all those years ago
:11:33. > :11:37.who got hit on the nut. He now lives in Bristol. My head was ringing! I
:11:37. > :11:40.didn't know what had happened! And I was just coming round and I could
:11:40. > :11:45.see Robin Friday jumping over the wall and running up the terraces
:11:45. > :11:50.towards me. And he lifted me up and I could hear people saying, is he
:11:50. > :11:55.all right? And I could hear him saying, is he OK? And I was saying,
:11:55. > :12:00.I'm fine, I'm fine! And he gave me a big kiss and ran back down the
:12:00. > :12:07.terraces and carried on warming up for the game! Another great memory
:12:07. > :12:11.there. Now on to Late Kick Off's form team.
:12:11. > :12:14.Bournemouth have won seven in seven. And, Eddie, it's over to you here.
:12:14. > :12:22.You'll be analysing this footage this week. Good to watch a 3-0 win
:12:22. > :12:26.at Shrewsbury. Yes, a really great goal. When you look at the quality
:12:26. > :12:33.of that second goal, it was a great finish and really good momentum at
:12:33. > :12:37.the moment. You are going to have those moments away from home and his
:12:37. > :12:43.important your players are capable of turning games and he is in that
:12:43. > :12:48.format the moment. He is utterly flying at the moment, isn't he? And
:12:48. > :12:52.again, good work and approach in the third, and thank you very much for
:12:52. > :12:56.this own goal! It is going tremendously well. All at the League
:12:56. > :13:05.One table as well, because it really does make great Buick -- viewing for
:13:05. > :13:09.Bournemouth fans. And the rivals, whom we will chat about in a moment,
:13:09. > :13:13.have the games in hand. So this is looking really good for you and you
:13:13. > :13:20.came back from Burnley and everything has fallen into place?
:13:20. > :13:22.has been a remarkable run and I didn't foresee this happening,
:13:22. > :13:26.really. The players deserve the credit haven't got themselves into
:13:26. > :13:29.this position. You go in there, and so you must've done something to
:13:29. > :13:34.change the mindset of a team that was struggling at the bottom of the
:13:34. > :13:37.table? We got the team together and we had our idea of how we wanted the
:13:37. > :13:43.game played and we had to take that onto the pitch but the players have
:13:43. > :13:47.been great taking those ideas on board. We talk about this
:13:47. > :13:52.goalscoring run Brett is on and he scores another couple yesterday.
:13:52. > :13:55.These are all the goals and 18 seven now. Do you remember a certain
:13:55. > :14:05.Jermaine Defoe you played with? Years on that sort of form, isn't
:14:05. > :14:10.he? -- he is. Yes. He is capable of scoring goals at any time. And the
:14:10. > :14:14.other members of the team are creating choices for him as well.
:14:14. > :14:17.will maybe be a different player in the championship now. He has
:14:17. > :14:20.experienced it and that is vital. Bournemouth going so well.
:14:20. > :14:30.Here are the other League One clubs who've stressed Eddie all year as
:14:30. > :14:34.
:14:34. > :14:37.both opponents and rivals for Congratulations to Yeovil. They're
:14:37. > :14:40.definitely in the play-offs after this victory at Stevenage. Only one
:14:40. > :14:43.defeat in nine. Yeovil have got the momentum, the confidence and belief
:14:43. > :14:46.that comes with that. No wonder, when your keeper's performing like
:14:46. > :14:49.this. Sam Foley with the opener, nice controlled effort, just pass
:14:49. > :14:51.it into the net. James Hayter pops up with a second. Vastly
:14:51. > :14:55.experienced striker. He certainly knows where the net is. Yeovil
:14:55. > :14:58.finish with ten. Dan Burn sent off for a second yellow in stoppage
:14:58. > :15:01.time. Three defeats in a row for Swindon. They're in danger of
:15:01. > :15:03.missing out on the League One play- offs, and manager Kevin McDonald
:15:03. > :15:06.apologised for his team's performance. He called it
:15:06. > :15:09.embarrassing. Only one win in eight for Swindon. How do they turn it
:15:09. > :15:11.around? For starters, they've got to do better with the goals they're
:15:12. > :15:15.conceding at the moment. United attackers, in between the Swindon
:15:15. > :15:22.defenders, you have to pick your man, lock on and mark him. You've
:15:22. > :15:25.got to take responsibility. Crawley may yet make the play-offs after
:15:25. > :15:28.being in Coventry for their second win of the week. Billy Clarke and
:15:28. > :15:31.Connor Essam with the goals. It's been an excellent few days, after
:15:31. > :15:37.winning at Sheffield United mid- week. Three clean sheets in a row
:15:38. > :15:40.for Crawley. That's quality defending. Pompey's run of five
:15:40. > :15:45.without defeat was ended at promotion-chasing Brentford. Keeper
:15:45. > :15:47.Simon Eastwood at fault for me. Must make better contact. That said,
:15:47. > :15:50.fair play to Pompey. Responded brilliantly. My former team mate
:15:51. > :15:53.Dave Connolly made a living out of scoring goals. Great turn, must hit
:15:53. > :15:57.the target, fantastic. Look out for another turn. Shaun Cooper. Once
:15:57. > :16:05.again, great strike. Two late goals would win it for Brentford. This is
:16:05. > :16:08.x-rated stuff, Tony. Schoolboy defending. Very scrappy. Now, just
:16:08. > :16:11.five minute remaining, away from home, you've got to take a point.
:16:11. > :16:17.The goalkeeper is confident, he's shot to pieces. Look how gutted the
:16:17. > :16:20.defender is. Absolutely devastated. Well, Portsmouth fans spilled onto
:16:20. > :16:25.the pitch at the end of the game. This could prove costly to the club,
:16:25. > :16:35.because a Football League fine may be imposed. Their relegation will
:16:35. > :16:39.
:16:39. > :16:42.also be confirmed this week if Oldham beat Yeovil on Tuesday night.
:16:42. > :16:45.So the top sees Bournemouth two points behind the leaders but the
:16:45. > :16:48.chasing pack have games in hand. Yeovil's win guarantees a play-off
:16:48. > :16:50.place. Swindon stay sixth despite their recent poor form. Portsmouth
:16:50. > :16:53.still have chances of beating the drop on performance, thereby
:16:53. > :16:56.forcing the league's hand to dish out the 10 point deduction this
:16:56. > :16:59.season and not next for being in administration. Let's start with
:16:59. > :17:02.Pompey. Amazing scenes this week as their fan's trust moved a step
:17:02. > :17:05.closer to taking over. A High Court decision will see them follow
:17:05. > :17:09.Exeter in being run by supporters. But the high spirits which saw fans
:17:09. > :17:18.spill onto the pitch at Brentford could well result in a fine. As one
:17:18. > :17:24.person on Twitter noted - we've just lost the benefit of 20 shares.
:17:24. > :17:30.It is grim news. I think it is what's all Portsmouth fans wanted a.
:17:30. > :17:36.-- it is great news. Gary Johnson, the fans love him, and I am not
:17:37. > :17:46.surprised. He has done a remarkable job. Very much so. They are 4th.
:17:47. > :17:49.
:17:49. > :17:59.Phenomenal. He is not working and a massive budget as well. Fair play
:17:59. > :18:05.
:18:05. > :18:10.to him. It is Oldham and his son, Lee, on Tuesday night. Little bit
:18:10. > :18:15.of fun. Maybe a drink afterwards for the father and son. How do you
:18:15. > :18:25.be spending Tuesday night? I will be yet again somewhere. I don't
:18:25. > :18:34.
:18:34. > :18:41.know why yet. James hater, craters the moment, but yes, he has had a
:18:41. > :18:45.Now into League Two, starting with those clubs whose very survival in
:18:45. > :18:50.the league are in the balance. And Neil Warnock will be giving us his
:18:50. > :18:52.views in a moment. First, though, Ady joins me to review the action.
:18:52. > :18:58.Aldershot remain bottom of the league. There are three matches
:18:58. > :19:01.remaining to stay in League Two. Can they do it? It's getting
:19:01. > :19:04.tougher each week, especially as York won at the weekend as well.
:19:04. > :19:06.Matt McClure put Wycombe in front just after half-time, but I'm
:19:06. > :19:10.really pleased for Aldershot's goal scorer here, Craig Stanley - he's
:19:10. > :19:13.had a terrible time of injury this season. At last, some good moves.
:19:13. > :19:16.Great finish, Craig. Joel Grant got the the winner against his former
:19:16. > :19:23.club. Andy Scott dismissed it as very, very soft. That's putting it
:19:23. > :19:31.mildly! Heartache for Plymouth with Burton's winning goal coming in the
:19:31. > :19:37.94th minute. It would've been a very important point for Plymouth.
:19:37. > :19:42.Once again, terrible defending. And more bad news - Crystal Palace have
:19:42. > :19:44.recalled Jason Banton from his loan spell.
:19:44. > :19:48.So to the table, Torquay's must-win match against Barnet now takes
:19:48. > :19:51.place on Tuesday night. Aldershot are bottom and need a final push to
:19:51. > :19:54.avoid the dreaded trap door out of the league. Plymouth are now three
:19:54. > :19:58.points clear of the drop zone. Staying with Plymouth, it seems a
:19:58. > :20:01.good time to get the views of a man who led the club out of the
:20:01. > :20:03.division 17 years ago. Neil Warnock's career has seen him
:20:03. > :20:06.manage 11 league clubs, notching up seven promotions, but after leaving
:20:06. > :20:10.Leeds, he says he's retired from front line management although he
:20:10. > :20:14.does want to stay involved in the game from his base in Cornwall. So
:20:14. > :20:19.what does he fancy doing and who with? I spoke to Neil in our
:20:19. > :20:22.Plymouth studio earlier. I think they have both got a good
:20:22. > :20:25.chance. I thought yesterday's game was going to be vital, Torquay and
:20:25. > :20:28.Barnet, and I was gutted, I was doing Final Score up in Manchester
:20:28. > :20:32.and I thought they got a great point, Plymouth, only when trey
:20:32. > :20:35.announced the proper results it came out 1-0, it was that late. I
:20:35. > :20:37.was gutted for everybody, because they've done very well of late. I
:20:37. > :20:40.think John has done really well while he's been in charge.
:20:40. > :20:43.The dust has settled on your departure from Leeds, but the
:20:44. > :20:47.question is, what is next for you, bearing in mind you've moved back
:20:47. > :20:50.to your adopted home in Cornwall. Yeah, I've been retiring for about
:20:50. > :20:53.20 years now. It's been one of those things. I think what I'd like
:20:53. > :20:57.to do, I still think there's a massive gap between a manager and
:20:57. > :21:00.the owners of a club, the directors or whatever. I do not like the
:21:00. > :21:03.title director of football, but that sort of position where you can
:21:03. > :21:06.help the manager and you're not a threat to him, because I think all
:21:06. > :21:16.managers now need help. If you look at the Championship, the tenure of
:21:16. > :21:17.
:21:17. > :21:20.a manager now is one year four months on average. We put out a
:21:20. > :21:24.note on Twitter when you left Leeds and said, would fans down in the
:21:24. > :21:27.West Country welcome a role for Neil Warnock, and most of them said,
:21:27. > :21:37.absolutely. Are you waiting for that phone to ring and James Brent
:21:37. > :21:40.
:21:40. > :21:43.to say, "Come and get involved"? I speak to James quite a lot. I
:21:43. > :21:46.think everybody owes James an awful lot. I think if he hadn't come
:21:46. > :21:53.along, I doubt if there'd have been a Plymouth, that's how important it
:21:53. > :21:56.was. Opening the discussion out, give us an insight into the tension
:21:56. > :21:59.that managers are going to be going through at this stage in the season,
:21:59. > :22:03.whether it's about getting in the play-offs, going up or just staying
:22:03. > :22:06.up. Well, you know I said I did football Final Score on Saturday,
:22:06. > :22:09.and it's the first time for 30 years that I've woke up on a
:22:09. > :22:12.Saturday morning and my stomach that not churning inside out, I
:22:12. > :22:14.cannot eat anything after eight o'clock in the morning on match day
:22:14. > :22:17.until after the game, you're driving to the ground, you're
:22:17. > :22:20.nervous, you have all these superstitions, your poor old family,
:22:20. > :22:23.you try and smile but you're not really listening to them. It's a
:22:23. > :22:26.horrible time of the season, but that's why we're all in it. We're
:22:26. > :22:30.all in it to be there, to get success, and unfortunately, you
:22:30. > :22:34.have to look at your side of the coin, we are all going to get the
:22:34. > :22:40.sack at some stage. You have to do with the elation as well as the
:22:40. > :22:50.disappointment. What advice to the young managers of today, those just
:22:50. > :22:51.
:22:51. > :22:54.starting out, and they seem to be getting younger. Eddie Howe will be
:22:54. > :22:59.watching this on the sofa with me. What would you like to say to him?
:22:59. > :23:02.That incredible gamble to go back to Bournemouth. I disagree. I was
:23:02. > :23:05.really pleased he went back to Bournemouth. I didn't think he was
:23:05. > :23:09.happy at Burnley. I watched his body language. Managers, if you're
:23:09. > :23:12.not happy, you can't do your job. His family is there, he knows the
:23:12. > :23:15.chairman, he knows he's got support, he knows the fans love him, and
:23:15. > :23:19.that's a massive plus for a manager. I think the players, it responds on
:23:19. > :23:27.the players. You've got to have humour in the dressing room, and
:23:27. > :23:31.it's a mixture. I see Bournemouth as avery happy club at the moment
:23:31. > :23:40.and that is because Eddie and his staff are very happy. You might say
:23:40. > :23:45.brave but I thought it was the correct decision.
:23:45. > :23:52.He has been a manager for such a long time, and got success at most
:23:52. > :23:59.clubs. He told about stomach- churning stuff, even after all
:23:59. > :24:03.these years. Do you identify with that? Absolutely. It is ready and
:24:03. > :24:11.comfortable and difficult sometimes. It is the best job in the world,
:24:11. > :24:14.but it can be the worst as well. So to the teams at the top, looking
:24:14. > :24:19.for a bit of Warnock-esque promotion magic. We start with a
:24:19. > :24:22.Cheltenham side still chasing an automatic spot.
:24:22. > :24:24.Cheltenham are now certain to be in the play-offs at the very least
:24:24. > :24:28.after defeating already-promoted Gillingham. Michael Hector scoring
:24:29. > :24:33.what Mark Giggs called an outstanding performance. A point
:24:33. > :24:37.for Exeter after three successive defeats. Jamie Reid twice put them
:24:37. > :24:42.in front. Wimbledon came back to equalise on each occasion. Exeter
:24:42. > :24:46.now relying on other results going their way. As a player, the first
:24:46. > :24:49.thing you look out for after a game - how did teams get on in and
:24:49. > :24:53.around us? Now, Jamie Reid does all the right things here, as you'll
:24:53. > :24:56.see. He gets it hard, low across the goalkeeper. Dodgy bounce on a
:24:56. > :24:59.dodgy pitch, but I'll tell you what, that won't bother Exeter. As a
:24:59. > :25:09.defender, I really feel for the rear guard of the Exeter defenders
:25:09. > :25:09.
:25:09. > :25:12.here. No real pressure on the Wimbledon player. Look at the
:25:12. > :25:22.reaction, though. The body language of the defenders. One, two, three,
:25:22. > :25:31.
:25:31. > :25:41.the net for a third time, but it was disallowed. Jamie Cureton
:25:41. > :26:07.
:26:07. > :26:17.It is all to play for. Bradford and Rotherham are playing each other.
:26:17. > :26:22.
:26:22. > :26:25.Do what I now for Exeter. Absolutely. Do or die. From the
:26:25. > :26:30.contenders to the sides trying to keep their minds off their summer
:26:30. > :26:33.holidays in League Two's mid table. Oxford halted their run of five
:26:33. > :26:42.without a win. Alfie Potter with the only goal of the match. The
:26:42. > :26:46.poor run has cost them any chance of a play-off spot. Oxford have
:26:46. > :26:48.played at Dagenham three times, and on each occasion, they have been 1-
:26:48. > :26:51.0 winners. Maybe this should've been a two-goal victory. Sean Rigg
:26:51. > :26:54.missed that chance. Bristol Rovers took a point from this mid-table
:26:54. > :26:57.match. John Ward's side have lost only one of their last seven now.
:26:57. > :26:59.Even the Rovers manager admitted this wasn't a classic. Tom Parkes
:26:59. > :27:09.had their best chance. Ward's demanding two victories from
:27:09. > :27:15.Rovers' last two matches. I guess it is all about putting
:27:15. > :27:20.plans in place for next season being a successful stock absolutely.
:27:20. > :27:26.Managers will be tried to get the best teams possible. How do keep
:27:26. > :27:33.teams possible -- how do you keep teams motivated? I think it is
:27:33. > :27:36.about pride. Last but not least, to Guernsey. No, Matt Le Tissier
:27:36. > :27:38.didn't make his debut for his Island, but he was on hand for
:27:38. > :27:41.something very important. Patrice Muamba, the Botlon player who's
:27:41. > :27:44.heart stopped for 70 minutes, has travelled to the Channel Islands to
:27:44. > :27:54.donate a defibrulator. The life- saving equipment could save many
:27:54. > :27:58.
:27:58. > :28:02.lives. Matt was helping with the official bit in his official blazer.
:28:02. > :28:08.Eddie Khumbu Warwood promotion to the championship mean for you?
:28:08. > :28:13.would mean an lot for made, but for the time, they would be an
:28:13. > :28:22.achievement. You have been in some very good teams as a play yourself
:28:22. > :28:29.but did not quite make it. squad is very competitive, very
