00:00Bristol Rovers head coach Inigo Calderon has warned of the threat of League Two for his side and made clear that his side are currently playing at a League Two standard and have four games left of this season to make sure that they remain in League One for next year.
00:15No, we will do it on Monday, I mean, as I said, today, obviously the zone is really down and I think, to be fair, I think we tout really both, I think if someone didn't realize, I think they realize now, because it's quite obvious, now we are down there, now we are League Two, now we are League Two, simple as that, so I don't know if everybody knew that, I knew that, that we're going to be fighting for that, now we are League Two, now we have four games to go up, simple as that.
00:45Now it's not about playing pretty or not pretty, it's not what I realized quite quickly about that, you know, it's not about the players we have as well, I think we had to try to play a little bit, and so it's not about the philosophy, it's not about, because that doesn't give you any points, it's about trying to perform the best way you have to do, and sometimes it's playing good, sometimes it's about switching pieces, today it was not there, it was not there.
01:11And finally, Bristol City's Liam Manning has said that his side are remaining positive, despite their draw away at Queen's Park Rangers.
01:19Yeah, what a fantastic goal, I have to say, credit to the lads, I thought it was a moment of real quality, yeah, really enjoyed the goal, and then around, it was a tough game, I think, that's the bit, you know, the first 15 minutes, you could see that, I think, in terms of, you know, we spoke a lot around, you know, having brilliant basics, which, you know, and whether it's decision making or execution, it wasn't, it wasn't quite the level of consistency we've shown in the last couple of games, but that's the good thing, you know, we walk in the change room, the lads are, you know, we're honest, they know what we're capable of.
01:49I mean, more how it became, I think it was, it was more probably from, you know, turnovers on mistakes than it was actually, you know, really fantastic play to open teams up, so, and that was probably both ways, so, I think it's one of those, they, yeah, we didn't do enough to win today, but, you know, at the same point, you know, with the goal and, you know, probably the control we had, we definitely deserved at least a point, we just spoke about it in there, I think it, yeah, such a, such a full-on week, you can see lads are flat on their feet, giving everything.
