00:00Paul, trophy lift day, obviously a special day for the club, a culmination of a great season,

00:05winning the league, and you wanted to mark it with a win, and obviously you've done that,

00:092-0 against Stoney, so it must be pleasing. Yeah, it's a great day, perfect ending to the day.

00:15Game-wise, you know, they come back here to try and nick a point, and yeah, it's a frustrating

00:21first half, but second half, I've asked the boys just to give the crowd something, you know,

00:25cooks, you know, to try and shoot from distance, and yeah, he delivered, and then the team delivered

00:30after that, the game opened up a little bit, and yeah, we were worthy winners in the end.

00:34Yeah, I mean, it was clear Kingsternian were coming for a point, weren't they, you know,

00:37they were sat right in, weren't they, and yeah, so, yeah, so, half-time, you just had to say,

00:43you know, show the patience, and then that was an absolute thunderbolt strike, wasn't it?

00:47It was, yeah, it was difficult, you know, they went to a back five today,

00:50it was something they haven't done before, and they made it difficult, and then, yeah,

00:54we needed, we needed a spark, you know, the pitch is a little bit tough, a bit bubbly,

00:58hard this time of year, and it was difficult to get anything going, and yeah,

01:02the goal cup was just a quite good moment in the game, which lifted everyone, and yeah,

01:07good scenes now. Yeah, and obviously, once you got the goal, obviously,

01:10they then obviously had to try to open up a bit, didn't they, and then obviously,

01:13you know, pace the game, quickened up a bit, didn't it? They did, yeah,

01:15it does then come alive and come into the game, and, you know, we almost saw a goal of the season

01:20from him, with a great bit of skill, and then obviously, great, come on and caused some problems,

01:25and got his goal, and yeah, we could have had a couple more in the end, but we're happy with two,

01:28and yeah, we're happy with what we've done. Yeah, that one where Daz's skill, he flicks it fast,

01:33and then wraps the bar, that would have been absolutely special, wouldn't it? It was, yeah,

01:37I mean, you know, all you could do was clap that, um, shame it didn't go in, but yeah,

01:40it was great to see. And then great gets the second, you know, late on, that's obviously nice,

01:44just, you know, you know, obviously wraps it up nicely there, doesn't it? Yeah. Yeah,

01:48the keeper's made a great save from him first time, but he's quick enough to, um, get the rebound,

01:52and yeah, really happy. Yeah, fully, fully deserved, obviously, fully comfortable, um,

01:57and obviously, the scenes, you know, after the match, I mean, obviously, you would have known

02:00before, obviously, it's going to be great scenes, but obviously, you know, sample it and be part of

02:04it, it's obviously great, isn't it? Yeah, it's amazing, you know, I think what we've done over the last

02:09couple of years, it's been amazing, but yeah, just for, you know, prior to our time here, you know,

02:14people that are coming down here, the 40, 50 people that come here and they're getting to see

02:18this now and, you know, what Harry's done with the social media side of things and building the club

02:23and people that have followed us, you know, we give the town something to celebrate and, uh,

02:27yeah, it's a great occasion for them. You mentioned that 40, 50 people and now today,

02:30you know, over a thousand again, you know, just, yeah, you know, a couple of years ago,

02:34I don't think they'd ever think this was possible, but, um, Harry's made it possible and the boys

02:38on the picture have done the business and, uh, delivered what Harry's wanted. It's a real sort of club effort,

02:44isn't it? On the pitch, off the pitch, everyone, everyone, yeah, everyone involved, you know,

02:48from Spaz to Rachel and our team in the bar, you know, everyone knows each other's names and we

02:54respect each other and, you know, it's part of, part of why we're so successful. Obviously, yeah,

02:59back-to-back league titles, you know, just more special memories, you know, for everyone, isn't it?

03:03It is, yeah, especially, you know, the way we've gone about it and done it, we've been excellent.

03:07Um, yeah, we'll, uh, we'll enjoy tonight and then, uh, yeah, we've got another week to go,

03:11then we'll reflect on it all and sit down and get ready for next season.

03:14I'll see for yourself personally, obviously, you, you obviously, unfortunately,

03:17you had to miss the trophy lift last year, so it'd be, obviously, you know, extra pleasing,

03:21obviously, to some of it this time. Yeah, yeah, 100%. Um, yeah, it's a great occasion, uh, yeah,

03:27just enjoy, just enjoying the moment and, uh, yeah, hopefully there's more to come.

03:31Yeah, so, yeah, I mean, obviously, you don't want to look ahead, but I suppose, you know,

03:34it's already kind of a bit in the back of the mind, isn't it? You know, wanting to keep driving forward,

03:37isn't it? Yeah, of course, yeah, we know, we're, you know, we're no fools, we know what, um, how tough

03:42it's going to be next year, but we're ambitious and, you know, we want to compete and that's how

03:46we set our goals. And obviously, well-earned celebrations tonight, no doubt, and, you know,

03:51fully deserved. Um, the 96 points now, you know, you're really closing in that 100 points with three

03:56more games to go, you want to finish off strongly, didn't you? Yeah, definitely, you know,

03:59we've got three games to try and get there and, uh, yeah, that'd be the aim.
