00:00Back in the day you had a bit of a choice to make, didn't you? You had like a big university, quite a big university choice to make, all going in and being a rock star.
00:08Yes, so Doncaster Polytechnic, I don't even know if that exists.
00:14Yeah, I got a place at Cambridge to study history when I was 18, but I was in this band called Milburn with my brother and me two really close mates, and I thought if I go to the university they're screwed.
00:28So it's a completely selfless act then?
00:31You know me, you know me.
00:33I was staying true to myself and supporting Wednesday and you know everyone expected United to win didn't they and we did it.

01:17So like we talked to Barry a little bit and Barry were like his best manager I've ever had by Ohio.
01:21You're not tearing down Tristan?
01:24No, so the Wednesday players had to stay for a meal but they were all itching to get away.
01:29And by the time they ordered cabs I looked round and there was only me and Des Walker in jeans, everybody else was suited and booted.
