00:09So, yeah, they had to call it.
00:10So that was a blow for everyone, I think.
00:12So everyone was gearing up for it.
00:13Yeah. How frustrating was it?
00:15Because I'm sure you did a lot of prep.
00:16It's a massive occasion.
00:18And I guess there's even more of a spotlight on it, given when it does happen, it will be the final Merseyside derby.
00:23Yeah, you know, we'd come off a big result in the week as well, which added a bit more feel to it, maybe, you know.
00:28So, yeah, it was a blow for sure.
00:31I think all parties wanted it to be played, but like I say, safety had to come first and understand why.
00:37So, yeah, we parked that and we moved forwards until the next time.
