00:00Yeah, it's going to be a proud moment, as you imagine, for anybody in my position.
00:07Mayer Street, a connection for the football club to leave the club out at Wembley Stadium.
00:12As you imagine, in front of close to, if not over 80,000 supporters,
00:17one of the biggest games in world football, as people talk about.
00:20It's a great honour and privilege and responsibility.
00:24But I've got to do my job right, and that's the first and foremost, and we're here to win.
00:28We've talked about it at length. I know you've obviously been here locally as well.
00:33We've talked about the reset after the Burnley game, which was really important,
00:37giving players valuable minutes, resting a few players, resetting physically,
00:41but most importantly, resetting mentally.
00:43I've been absolutely delighted in terms of the reaction that we've got from the Burnley game.
00:47I should imagine the narrative was a negative one, and then you have to pile on all the stuff
00:53that everybody locally and possibly nationally talks about our playoff record.
00:58But that's not touched as one bit. One single ounce of that has not gone into my thinking
01:05or the players thinking. They're ultra positive. They're focused. They're excited as well.
01:11And they're really looking forward to the challenge of going to Wembley
01:16and hopefully getting that win that we're all after.
