00:00 I'm comfortable in the knowledge that we can deal with the league.

00:05 But I also know that the season is on the come to give us a tough start,

00:12 when I want it to be a really aggressive start.

00:14 We've got another seven days or so to come out of the window as strong as we possibly can,

00:21 and then we get to work.

00:23 - You envisage more signings? - Yeah, of course.

00:25 - How many more do you think? - As many as possible.

00:28 I'm realistic, me and Prince I speak all the time,

00:32 we have the same opinion on things, we get that.

00:35 But there's always restrictions, so we're working really hard,

00:40 as we possibly can with what we've got, but we know what we want.

00:45 It's a case of trying to get in front of it, get in front of it, have a archery.

00:49 Big start for us, yeah, big start for us.

00:52 Obviously, you imagine again if we could have got that over the line before the deadline on Friday,

00:56 the difference again today, because Sam is further on than Oli McBurnie in terms of his season,

01:01 he has not diminished his control over the disc.

01:04 Yeah, definitely.

01:06 Listen, you think about the opportunity and exposure that Will and Benny are getting,

01:11 it's fantastic for them.

01:13 But we know we can help them out, showcase them a lot better

01:17 if they've got a bit more help and experience around them.

01:20 One of those boys playing at the top of the lower mat to start with,

01:23 they play often. Likewise, if both boys were coming on with their pace

01:27 and then there were 20 minutes left, can we change the game or see a game out?

01:31 But at the minute, in the first three games, they've had to do the donkey work,

01:36 they've had to hold the ball up and they've had to go for it.

01:38 It's been a tough job for them.
