00:00Reports have confirmed that Norwich City have made an official approach for Bristol City head coach Liam Manning.

00:08The fee for compensation is within the £800,000 region, but for Bristol City it will be a huge loss if he does go.

00:18Let's hear what Liam Manning had to say just a week ago about the season he has just had.

00:22Naturally, I think when I joined the club you could sense and feel the frustration with the fans and the build.

00:29I think you could just sense it and for me the only way you change that is by the work you do and by what the fans turn up and see on a Saturday.

00:37I think what we've shown, what we've brought is a group of lads and a group of staff that we're all in that give everything.

00:42Good days, bad days, natural that's part of the game, but I think when I look at the vast majority of the games this season,

00:49we haven't lost games or performed poorly due to attitude, application or competing.

00:54It's quite often been about quality, so I think the fans see that, the fans get it, they're real as well,

00:59which is probably why it was nice to get the reception we got off the last two games.

01:03I think the fans saw a group that have given everything over the course of the season and continue to do in the last two games.

01:11Our new Bristol Rovers boss Darrell Clark has outlined what type of play he wants at the gas to get them promoted.

01:18This coming season.

01:20I think you've been here long enough and a few managers to know what I think the Bristol Rovers players should look like

01:26and the non-negotiables, what that should look like.

01:31We've had successful players, I've managed successful players in the past, so I can give them a helping hand on that

01:37or a kick up the backside, however you want to call it, to get them to understand what this club means to its supporters.

01:44We're at Armour Custodian in this club, I was here last time, Ricky is, the board are, but the fans are here to stay.

01:50So for me it's a task to make sure that I get players performing out there, what Bristol Rovers players should look like,

01:56full of guts, full of determination, living their lives as professionals every single minute of the day,

02:01wanting to achieve, wanting to do better, wanting to do all the things, the non-negotiables I call it.

02:07Players will have good games, players will have bad games, that's footballers, that's at the top level and through all the levels.

02:14We'll see you soon.

02:15You need to go over that.

02:15You need to do whatever's going on here.

02:17We're going over that, you need to do whatever you want to go on there.

02:19We're just going forward to following the rules.

02:21And we just want to make sure that you don't have any examples.

02:23We're going to do whatever you want, so at the bottom level, how manyAM are not paying in any records,

02:25a lot more oraz something that you want to pay for the priority for the trip,

02:26let's make sure to make sure that there is still a terrific system.

02:28That they are looking forward to making sure that these cameras are so many people that can't be appreciated.

02:30But at the bottom level where all the information у alboange is,

02:41I feel very small and more about it hospitalized.
