00:00Do you think it was an occasion for Leicester to come in and give you the only change today in his last game because of his head held high?
00:07Yeah, I'll let everyone know what I think of him as a lad and a player, he's a great guy.
00:13Little bits of experience, like I said, I wanted us to be strong without the ball
00:18and almost create moments in transition which work well and he's good at that.
00:22And he manages the game well, whether he wins free kicks, his roles when we defend in set plays,
00:28I think we got the team right today.
00:34It was nice to have Ledo back so Steffi could be because with Ledo carrying injuries as well and Robbie also carrying a knock,
00:41it's harsh on Steffi but they needed to start because I couldn't believe having them on the bench then bringing them on
00:46and taking them off because you're wasting a sub and when we've got not many bodies, if you like, that would have been an error.
00:52So I had to start with that team, knew where Steffi and Sam were likely to be playing.
00:57And then we had options as well if we were chasing the game, we knew what we were going to be doing.
01:01So, yeah, I was pleased with him and the rest of them.
01:05Is there some learning from the two goals in five minutes?
01:07Because for 70 you looked brilliant in total control.
01:10Like I said, Kane switched off a couple of moments, that's it.
01:13Like I said, total control.
01:15But I'm not going to be critical of Kane because he's been, come on, especially in his defending leaps and bounds this season.
01:20And like I said, I think he's learnt a lot.
01:25He wants to improve, he'll keep improving and he'll learn from that as well.
01:30Preston and Bristol have been sort of neck and neck really for the last ten years.
01:33They came up in 2015 together.
01:35Seeing that today, there's a bit of motivation there.
01:37He'd love that to be us sort of thing.
01:39Yeah, but they've invested in different ways, haven't they?
01:42Do you think they're on a different level?
01:43Yeah, they've invested the plan, the investments from what they started at the academy and the training ground.
01:49What they've invested here and the signings they've made and the wages they pay now.
01:55Yeah, totally different.
01:56But of course, that is where you want to get to.
01:58And how you get to that, we'll have to generate our funds in a different way.
02:03Is it all on recruitment then for you and your coaching of the players?
02:07Is that the two main routes to try and get there?
02:10Yeah.
02:11It's the only ones at the minute, yeah.
