00:00You mentioned Bowler never being surprised, was there any chat with him needed that you're going to play him today?

00:04No, he gets work with nothing, he's trained hard, he's working hard.

00:09Yeah, so he deserved to be picked and I was pleased with him today.

00:14I know I asked you last game but there's been noise, is it up and down or up in the air whether he stays here beyond January?

00:20Is there anything going on?

00:21No, I don't know what your noise is, I don't read the things that you read or what you allude to.

00:25Honestly, I didn't understand that question.

00:27No, listen, Josh is fine, I speak to him all the time about his situation and what he needs to do to get into game time.

00:34I think he respects that, he knows it's my decision and call, but likewise I know he wants to play, do you know what I mean?

00:39So, yeah, and when windows come round you always have them chats with players, it's as simple as that.

00:45He's happy here, he enjoys it here, he just wants to play more football.
