 Jason, the new AFC born with manager, you must be very proud. Obviouslyええ is an honour and a privilege to be manager of such a great football club. So I am very honoured to be sitting there as the manager. When I came here as a 20 year огром young man, it was a player and would have been in love with the area of football club. I call this my home, I've been here for such a long time now. A wnaeth yw ymwneud o'i gael eich club ymlaen, rydyn ni'n gwneud yno yng Nghymru. Gweithio'r gweithwysau a'r gweithwysag yw ymlaen? Yn oed yn yr ymgyrch, mae'r gweithwysau bydd wedi eu wneud. Mae'n gweithwysau i'n gweithwysau ar-melywyr. It's under Eddie and me by his side. They're not going to come here and rip everything up and start again. I think it'd be a fool to do that. So I'm not Eddie in terms of, I can't be his clone and I won't be his clone, but my own person I've got my own ideas and I'll be looking to implement them as soon as we get back to training. Mac Sindemion has said that you want to get the club back into the Premier League as soon as possible. That's going to be a big challenge for you. Of course, I think any club that gets relegated from the Premier League, their immediate aim is to get back to the Premier League at the first time of asking, and this club is no different. That's going to be the aim, that's going to be the challenge, as we know the championships are very tough league, but it's a league I've been involved in before and it's a league that we've won before and our ultimate goal is going to be to get off to a good start and hopefully get back to the Premier League as quickly as we can. What do you think the biggest change is going to be for you stepping into the manager's shoes from the assistant manager's shoes? The media for one, which I know it's different in a championship, but I see how demanding that was certainly for the Premier League and for Ed. But obviously it comes with different challenges, different pressures. It's something I thought about during this last week, the full processes that have gone through my head and I've spoken to close family about. It's certainly a challenge that I feel I'm ready for and something I'm looking forward to. Are you well equipped as well, 569 games as an assistant manager and obviously you've got the pro-license in 2016 as well, which is very important? Listen, I think if I'm not ready now to do this job then I don't think I'd ever be ready when I've been standing by Ed's side for as long as I have done now for the last 12 years. And with the success that we've had together, Ed's athletic manager, I've certainly learnt a hell of a lot during that time and I do now feel that now's the time where I'm ready. I've got the tools that I need and I'm looking forward to that challenge. And you're obviously under no illusions that Eddie is going to be a hard act to follow? 100%. I think anyone stepping into Eddie's shoes is going to be a hard act to follow with the success that this football club has had under his guidance. It's been nothing short of a miracle but the good thing from my point of view is that I've stood by his side, I've shared an office with him throughout that time. The decisions that have been made, been part of and all the other stuff that goes with it so that's why I feel that I've learnt a hell of a lot and I'm ready for that next challenge. After guiding Fulham back to the Premier League first attempt this week, Scott Parker was quoted as saying that he had to repair the psychological damage of relegation. Do you feel that there could be an element of that for you to deal with here? I think that's always going to be the first challenge that you're going to have to face. When you get relegated from any division, it's really tough to take. Throughout your break and away from the club, that feeling tends to linger for some time. But what we can't do is let it linger any longer than now. Once we come back to work, we're ready to face the challenge and face it head on and make sure that we do everything that we can to get off to a good start and to get back to the Premier League. I know that you've probably taken a lot from a lot of managers that you've seen and perhaps worked with. I know that being Arsenal when you were younger, you took a lot from Arsenal and Van Gogh? Of course. When Edd and myself got involved in management at Bournemouth, we did go and watch Arsenal train a number of times through contacts that we had at the time. The manager was, I don't think anyone, you could never criticise the job and the philosophy that Arsenal and Van Gogh had and brought to this country. We were as big admirers of him and Arsenal at the time. It was a philosophy that we really liked and believed in and we tried to implement here. That's certainly the philosophy that this football club's seen over the years and one that we're trying to build going forward. I know that you've said before that one of your regrets as a player was never playing in the Premier League, which is why you were so pleased to be assistant manager in the Premier League. Now I would imagine being a manager in the Premier League is your main target now. Of course, I think any boy's dream is to one, I think ultimately become a professional footballer and then I think when you achieve that goal, it's to play at the highest possible level that you can. There's no better level than playing at the Premier League. When you move to the other side of the fence, so to speak, into management, your ultimate goal is to do the same. Try and test yourself in the best possible league in the world, which I do believe is the Premier League and that certainly is my goal now. With such a short turnaround before the start of the season as well and just being appointed now, it's going to be all hands to the pump. 24-7 is probably not going to be enough hours in the day for you. Of course, you know, as you say, with such a short turnaround, there's a lot of stuff that needs to be done, a lot of planning that needs to be done. The good thing is that you know, I've got some very good staff around me. So, you know, we know what's expected, we know what needs to be done. It's just a matter of implementing it and getting it done as quickly as possible because before you know it, the players are back and we're starting training again. You and Eddie always had a really good rapport with the supporters, so on your unveiling today as manager, your first message to the supporters as manager? My first message to the supporters as manager is that we want to continue the success that this club's had the last 10 years. It's been an incredible journey we've been on. Unfortunately, we lost our Premier League status last year and we'll be doing everything we can this year to get back to the Premier League as quickly as we can.
