00:00Yeah, I wasn't expecting it. I just tried to come in and do what I like to do and just
00:10enjoy it at the same time. I think that's when you get the best out of people.
00:15A lot of kids come straight out of the academy and then go into the youth league and then
00:18go into senior football. You've had to go back to the NPL. Do you think that and scored
00:22nine goals, do you think that's an advantage that now you've seen both sides of the coin
00:27and you know what it's like playing against men and how to get jobs done?
00:30Yeah, I think taking that step down from an academy to just a regular NPL side, it was
00:37a big change. I think I benefited from it because of playing with older people, getting
00:44that experience against the men's side of it, the more physical, the more demanding
00:50and all that business. But yeah, I think it really helped, especially coming into another
00:55situation like that when you've got older people and you're one of the young ones again.
