advice clear gives head listen monday plenty pushing sure
I have told Derek we will see him on Monday because I want him to make sure he gives it plenty of thought, to make sure we are not pushing him in any direction. I want him to have a clear head and make a decision. My advice to Derek would be to go and listen to them and to see what they've got to offer, see what is on the table. My advice is to give it some thought and we'll see you on Monday.
available bit body certainly credit determination evident four gary help himself hospital likely next night quickly returned shown squad stage suffered sure surprised three
I have to say I am a bit surprised at how quickly Gary has returned but that is all credit to him. He has shown a determination from day one to get himself back, that was evident when I went to see him in hospital the night he suffered his injury. I've already said that everyone in the squad will likely participate at some stage over the next three or four weeks, I'm pretty sure of that, so to have another body available certainly does help us.

cruel felt game goal harsh killer looked penalty tie unfair winning
It is a cruel game and it is very harsh on the players. To come in 3-1 down at half-time felt unfair and the penalty was a killer for us. It looked very soft. At 2-1 down, we were just one goal away from winning the tie and in with a real chance.

I will reflect on the game for the next few days,

anyone available bad bit compete fears fortune four league missing players slightly starting team
We were going well but have been slightly derailed by players not being available to the team. We've had a bit of bad fortune that we're probably missing four starting players from midfield. When my players are all available we can compete with anyone in the league - but the team will keep improving, I've no fears about that.
