Have contract decisions been made and communicating them?
00:04
Majority, yeah, majority.
00:06
What are them chats like? How do you find them?
00:09
Is it you that delivers the news?
00:10
Yeah, it's not nice, but I go back to what we were talking about.
00:14
I think there's a way to do it, and I think the more honest you can be, the better.
00:19
It's pointless getting fobbed off if it's bad news.
00:24
And if it's good news, there still has to be a reality with, I think, how that's delivered.
00:28
Because we're not saying that we're good enough now, does that make sense?
00:32
There has to be a demand that there's improvement.
00:34
So, yeah, listen, it's never a good time here, but it's worse, believe me,
00:41
when you've won things and done things together, and then you're giving bad news to people.
00:45
You know, that's horrible.
00:47
So it's never nice, but as I say, I think there's a way to do it.
00:51
And try and be as honest as possible.
00:54
And, yeah, just treat it with respect, because, you know, everyone thinks they've got an opinion of footballers
01:06
or working in the industry, what it is.
01:07
But your people, you know, parents, you've got families, it's your own career.
01:12
And when you're delivering bad news, it's, yeah, I think you have to be mindful of that.
01:19
Dan mentioned the leds and stuff.
01:21
I mean, assuming it's true.
01:22
Do you think he's someone that deserves to be playing week in, week out for somebody with what he brings?
01:27
I wouldn't say if it's true or not, simply because I think that bad, wild, you know.
01:35
Not been announced.
01:36
Oh, yeah, and all together, you know, all together.
01:39
So I've done that with everyone, haven't I, whether you've mentioned, you've mentioned lots of people all the time.
01:43
Are they staying, are they not staying?
01:44
So I'm not going to say yes or no about any of the lads yet.
01:48
That has to be done in the right way at the right time.
01:52
But in terms of led, how everyone knows what I think of led on him, you know, when Ben was out as captain straight away.
01:57
And I just think his personality is top, yeah, top.
