Transcript

00:00Let's be honest, it was far from a classic.

00:04Yeah, I was going to say, the first thing to say is that it was an absolutely dire game, wasn't it?

00:09Just as we expected, or what I expected anyway, in terms of the teams cancelling each other out a little bit.

00:15Wednesday coming to a straight, I don't mean that in a negative way whatsoever, but it's exactly what I would have done.

00:21It worked, didn't it? That first half, it was the perfect impetus from Wednesday's perspective.

00:25We said at half-time, there's only one team that needs to change it here, and that was United.

00:30Wednesday came with a game plan, again, no disrespect whatsoever, because that's what I'd have done if I were in their shoes.

00:36It worked perfectly, and then, as we've said many times, the one bit of quality in the entire game really,

00:41from Gus Harmer to Callum O'Hare to Tyrese Campbell, it was beautiful in its simplicity, wasn't it?

00:49Before, it wasn't six stepovers and a rifle into the top corner from 30 yards.

00:54It was quite a simple, intricate move in a way, but then the noise when that ball hit the back of the net was unbelievable.

01:02Yeah, I think it was the right result in terms of the better team won on the day, and the better team overall.

01:08But, yeah, not a classic. I don't think it'll make it onto DVD any time soon, put it that way.

01:14No.

01:15But the result doesn't matter.

01:16They're still doing that on DVD.

01:18Look in the greening. That's all that matters. It doesn't matter how you play, it doesn't matter who scores.

01:23Look in the greening and see.

01:24The result of the greening.
