 Mae Mark rydw i fel am y troon o'r gweithio a gynnwys ym Mhondae'r rhywbeth, ond byddwch chi'n meddwl am y cwestiynauikat. Felly, mae'n ffordd o'i'r gweithio i'w cwestiynauwhat? Bwyd dechrau i'r hyn am hefyd yn ymddangos a chefnodau. Fe wnaeth efowch gyd yn dechrau, ond roeddwn i amd�do i fynd i'r ysgolfa o golygu fyddwch o'i ysorffydd a'i weld yn ymddangos. A'i dechrau i'r ysgolfa yma... The most part in all the other games I've been involved in, I think it's been positive to take from the performance. If we're honest, there wasn't too much on Monday. But I think the way I'm viewing it is that it's not the know, it's from my view and my intention is that it's a 1 off. Dyna'r ymlaen o ddiwedd yn fwy oherwydd, yn fawr ymddiol. Mae'r fawr yn ysgrifetau, mae'r ddiwedd yn fawr ymlaen o'r ymlaen. Dwi'n mynd i Gymraeg yma yma i gyflwyno. Mae'n rhaid i ddim yn fwy o'r ffwns. Ond mae'r pethau yn unig o'r myfyrdd y gweithio o'r ffawr o'r cyflymau ar y peth. Mae'n rhaid i fynd i'r ffordd o'r ffawr yma, mae'n ffawr yn fwy o'r ffwng o'r ffawr o'r cyflymau. A dystod y ddim ni'n roi'n ei dweud o'r hwn? Gyla gael, mae'n ddwy o deny ar hyn sydd yn ei bod yn storio. Mae'n ddewch yn dweud, ac rwy'n meddwl y gallu'n meddwl hynny'n ei fod yn digwydd a'r tremp yn ein syniad sy'n ei dweud. Mae ddyn nhw, dan yna'r eu gyfer cynyddiad, fel pob ond ti'n gael. Rhywbeth fel y mawr i gael, yna'r brofi ffrustratig cyngor. A dyla'r gweithio'n gweld eich ffatoriai i ar y ddyntau. I'm not afraid of sending it off that we've had of Paodi yng Ngheirliech, but no, I don't think it's a good sign for us. I like to think all my teams have been aggressive in terms of wanting to wind balls, and being determined to, but I've never advocated going over that line. I think you just gotta be competitive and physicality comes into this. y gofyniaethau yn y gwybwysu gennych hongwr ond ar gyfer gweithio. I ffennys yr hyn wedi cael ei gwybod yn gweithio yn y gofyniaeth ym yn un yn yr ymdyn nhw. Rwyf yn fwy hyn yma i'n meddwl meddwl yma. Felly, roeddwn i'n gweithio â'r cyffreith gwrsfyniadau yn cyntynggr mewn ar ôl. Felly, mae'r ffordd yna yn ymes yn ydy, yw'n fwy gwych. Felly mae'r trafoduaeth yma ar y cyfrifloed. again, and good high level. So don't anticipate any reaction from Monday at all. My expectations is that we start as we finished last time out here. We are excellent, we got cheered off the pitch, probably the opposite on Monday but most of the time you get an opportunity very quickly to do something about it both to perform so we've got that opportunity ond am gweithio'r cyflwynt, nad oeddwn i'r gweithio'r cyflwynt yn gywir. Dyn am y pethau, ond mae'n gofyn am y byddai'r cyflwynt, a os ydych chi'n ei hunion i'r cyflwynt, ond mae'n gofyn, ond mae'n gofyn, ond mae'n gofyn yn digonol. Rydyn ni'n gweithio, oherwydd, y teimlu, gallwn i'n gweithio. Mae'n cael ei dda i'r ddechrau, mae'n gweithio, ond mae'n gweithio'n gweithio a'i gweithio'n gweithio'n gweithio. That's what we'll endeavour to do. We're at home, we're up against the team that obviously had a difficult season. We've got a lot to play for, we've got more to play for because it's about making sure that we get a positive result. Backed with an impressive performance we get all those factors right. Then I would expect to win the game. Sometimes, not always the case, you can do everything right in football and sometimes it flies off somebody's backside and you lose the game 1-0. But I don't anticipate that happening if we do our jobs right and correctly. Since this feeling of, well, okay, we slipped up badly against Cold Chest the last time out. But it's not acceptable, only one happened again, certainly not at the weekend. So I'm encouraged by that. I suppose it adds to that point, doesn't it, in terms of putting in a performance and getting something out of tomorrow, given what happened on Monday from a fans perspective. We disappointed a lot of fans who travelled a long way. We knew how far it was to travel. We had the same journey and it's not great when you come back on the bus or whatever means you take to get down there to come back on the back of a defeated mix of journeys even longer. So, yeah, we don't want that experience again. And we didn't give our travelling support, which is always great. We didn't give them anything on the day to really get behind. And we need to address that and make amends for that. So hopefully tomorrow we'll go into the game with the same attitude and the same stat that we had against Tramley, which I thought set the tone for us and enabled us to have the performance that we did. When we spoke after the game on Monday, you hinted somewhat at the potential decisions that had been made on some of the futures of those players that are out of the deal in the summer. I don't know how close you are to the full picture on that one, but with that in mind, is there a temptation from yourself to maybe look at some of the younger players in the squad and I throw into that bracket Kean, Rhys, Finn to give them a chance under yourself to get some minutes? Yeah, there is that possibility. But the reality is that the guys you've mentioned are here next year and it isn't really that urgency in terms of understanding what they can bring to the first 11. I'll have time to see that, so I don't feel any real pressure to give them game time. I'm notwithstanding that they've all trained really well, in fact Finn unfortunately is injured so he probably will miss out anyway. But the guys have trained well, they're ready to be called upon if needed, but at the moment I'm still looking at guys and still making opinions. I'll probably add to my next question then, but I extend it further maybe to, and I know you've been asked about this recently, the under 19s and how well they've done in their own respective seasons. Is there again, is there a temptation to look at them and throw them in at the deep end and see how they fare? Yeah, but it's got to be at the right time with the OK, they've had a great season I have to say and you want to reward that and recognise that. But the step into the first team should always be really difficult to take, and sometimes you need a little bit more of a body of work to really justify those decisions. So I'm pleased, I'm pleased, absolutely delighted that they've had this season. There's a lot of good work being done at their level, but to make that step to the first team is a big step. I want that, they have to justify it, I'm really deserved and there's still time for a lot of those guys. Mention Finn's situation, then any of the team news going into tomorrow's game? Oscar isn't available, Oscar Threlgaard. I believe he's still coming back looking really good, the decision on him really is whether or not we give him some game time before the end of the season. I know he's pushing to do that, but we've got to be careful given the length and nature of the injury. We don't want to compromise him at this last stage, so we'll do it on a daily and weekly basis, leading to the end of the season in terms of where we would see where we think we are in terms of game time. Apart from that, everybody else is available. What's the nature of Oscar's absence? He had a calf strength, so he's not available, probably out a couple of weeks I would imagine. Just on that bringing players back into the fold and being gradual from that long-term injury, we've had the opportunity to speak to Leangol before yourself and really, as you can imagine, a very insightful chat with him, he's a good character to deal with. He spoke of finding that balance, striking that balance between not rushing himself back and yourselves, not rushing him back, but also the understanding that he's out of a deal in the summer and he wants to show you, as much as he can, what he can do as a manager, how do you balance that situation, the enthusiasm against the care that needs to be taken? I think with Lee, I think we've had enough time in terms to be able to do that. He's obviously had significant injury and been hampered by injuries throughout his career. So it's about managing the individual. It's not one-size-fits-all. We don't want to make everybody's training the same way or the same intensity. Certainly not coming back from significant injuries. So that's just, in my view, not the way to do it. So I think we've protected Lee up to a certain point in terms of clearly he probably would have wanted more game time in a bit. I would be said as well, very similar. But I think the way we've been able to introduce him just off the bench and not really given in minutes over and above what we feel he's capable of dealing with. Hopefully we'll get to the point where he'll be able to start games even before the end of the season, which is the end game for my part of you. Undoubtedly injuries have hampered him. That's why maybe his career progression hasn't gone how probably he felt it should. He's a talented boy. Everyone can see that when he's fit and well. But it's just the injuries that need to be managed. Hopefully we've shown to him as well that we have the understanding and the knowledge of how you deal with players who've had a history of injuries. I think my knowledge and the coaches and the sports staff that we have here are mindful of that and I think that's reassuring for him. I think it's fair to say the impact that he's had when he has been handed the opportunity since coming back has been very evident to see him. You've spoken about his ability. In terms of making a decision on his future, is the biggest factor of consideration his injury record and his susceptibility to getting injured? Well that's part of the conversation but his ability I don't think is in doubt. But we've got to get a point where everybody's comfortable with where he is at at the moment this way and where he's comfortable with where he sees his future. We're still having discussions. I'm encouraged by what I hear when I speak to him. He's really about just getting back playing. I think that's the priority and anything else I will follow on the back of that. So I think he's still mindful that he just wants to get game time and then everybody can make a considered decision then. I'm conscious of the fact that whenever we speak particularly ahead of games that summer undoubtedly comes up and how that will look moving forward and indeed the main topic which is recruitment and I know from a city fan perspective that's high on their agenda. I know there's been talk about bringing in a recruitment director. How close are you with that situation? I think we're very close probably. We've only got a few loose ends to tie up with the individual that we would like to work with. So I'm hopeful that that will resolve itself in maybe a week or a couple of weeks and then we can really get down to collating all the information that we already have in fairness. So it's not a process as that's been ignored. We've been doing a lot of work obviously myself and Glendon and everybody within the club mark as well. As a lot of knowledge of all players and who's available and obviously everybody has the list of players and contracts so you're always every single day we're overlooking them. So what we need obviously is somebody with the same level of knowledge and maybe different insights but obviously the ability to collate all that information and make sure we're getting the right people to concentrate on. They have to be viable targets when you're chasing rainbows. You can waste a lot of energy and a lot of time chasing guys that have no intention of coming all out of your budgetary threshold. So it's about making sure we understand what we can go for, what's available, what we can afford clearly, but getting the best bang for a buck. So this one single candidate or being well, what will that individual bring to the table when it comes to recruiting? Well, as I've said, what we're looking for is obviously a knowledge of many markets. I think that's a prerequisite and certainly all those boxes are being ticked in terms of who we want to bring. So I think we have to just make sure that the knowledge of the players, not only their ability but their financial demands and whether or not they fit with obviously what I want to do in terms of the team. But there's a lot of choice and the difficulty will be making sure that we get the best value for what we can spend. I think with the knowledge that we have within the building at the moment and what we want to bring in, I think we'll be good in that respect. Don't underestimate the pull of Bradford City. We can plead a good case in terms of, well, we were a great option for anybody who wants to play in front of a citrus crowd in big numbers on a great stage and you can test yourself here. So I think in comparison to other clubs we will have other attributes and I think in terms of what we can offer players in terms of their career and how they want to progress, I think we're a good choice. Is that ideal wish list? Does it have clear targets on it now? Oh yeah, we know a lot of targets. Some will fall by the wayside, we understand that because people will take a different direction. But from my point of view it's about making sure that the level is consistent. It's not going after A targets and then realising you can only have B or C level targets. So I'd rather have the option of, OK, if we can't get target A, one falls by the wayside. I've got four of target A's rather than three and two target B's and C's if that happens that means we're underselling ourselves and we're not getting the right level in. So the exercise is to make sure we've got A targets, three or four in each position and then we'll get the best options we can. When do those conversations start with prospective targets? Have they already or do they wait till the start? Yeah, we've had discussions with managers, with directors of football, there's lots of different labels on these guys that seem loan managers and there's a lot of people that have the A and the N on these decisions. So it's just making sure we know the right people to talk to and maybe we have to circumvent some of them, usually they're injured if I'm honest. So it's about pitching to these players. Some players will have bigger offers in terms of wages so I should not always be about that and it should be about well actually is that the best decision for my career or is that I'm just interested in money and you understand agents will always sometimes be viewed in a better light if they get more money for their claim but the reality is sometimes they make wrong decisions career-wise. So we've just got to pitch to these players that may be wavering between whether or not to come here and just going to make them realise what we can offer and what we can offer to their career. Say loan managers, Premier League loan managers? We'll have all those conversations we need to because we can't leave any stone unturned. We'd want to be kicking ourselves come the start of the season thinking well goodness me for the sake of one phone call. We haven't got somebody else's got who we would have preferred. No, all those conversations, all those phone calls will be made. On that front line, keeping in mind potentially the teams coming up from the National League with the financial power that some of them seem to be possessing, that could skew it. Well yeah, probably the teams that are going on with this league this year are ones that financially aren't at the top end of the league at the moment whereas the ones that are likely to come in are some of the ones. Clearly it looks like Stratport will go straight up but obviously my old town club of Wrexham are backed by Hollywood stars so they have that financial backing that is very, very useful at this level. A lot of clubs come up from the National League and have really good seasons and go straight up again just because they get used to that winning and momentum and there will be at least two good sides coming up that will test a lot of the teams in this league. So yeah, that's something that we're aware of. Obviously potentially someone like Salford could still be in this division so again there are teams there who can offer pretty substantial. Yeah, but back to my point about what we can offer and it's about players recognising that and hopefully the agents of the players or clubs maybe of lone players that they're looking to place. I know for a fact that the conversations have already had that people view us as a good position for their good players to go out alone too. I think certainly we'd be at the top of the queue for the majority I would think if anybody, any top club was looking to place their players at at least two level I think we would be in first one or two. You mentioned Wrexham, I was going to ask you about obviously Scunthorpor in this strange situation where I think 72 years they're about to drop out of the league obviously it happened to Wrexham in 2008 how does it sort of affect the people around it Well it's very difficult at that and Wrexham being close on a number of occasions of getting out of the national league but it's a really difficult league to get out obviously only one automatically grows up and they find it very very difficult they've been close in the past but following the playoff finals that went really against Newport I was actually at that game and yeah it's difficult at Scunthorpor we'll probably find the same so it's been difficult season for them but it's not easy as with all the leagues predominantly they're the ones that spend the most their way to the top of the league if it's been managed and got good people around the club so money always will play a part it doesn't guarantee it if you've got financial backing and good people within the club and good recruitment then you can be successful and obviously they've still got these three games left when they're already down it's probably a little bit of a sort of a toy eyes on one little difference I would imagine it would be quite difficult but there's always that concern that maybe the shackles are off because there's no pressure on winning the game they can just go out and express themselves and free themselves off what they're able to produce that anxiety won't be in their play they've changed the team around different formations in recent times given that's where they found themselves in the league and obviously they're the fate that they were likely to happen to them so they're clearly looking at things differently for next year so that makes our preparation for the game a little bit more difficult because we're not quite sure which way they go but we can have a fair stab at it and hopefully we're somewhere near I think the Buggies are putting back anything from 6 to 1 to 8 to 1 to win on tomorrow which is a game that's a little bit unfair because we've obviously watched the last few games and obviously it's difficult games for them they've still got talent within their group so we won't underestimate them it's not a given so we've got to make sure we do our part make sure we do what we need to do in terms of a performance level if we do that then I'd expect us to win but it's not easy again so obviously you're talking about the players suspended and obviously Elliott Watt's now available I mean I was going to ask you about Elliott he's one of these players earlier in the season a lot of supporters sort of think you see that good and Derek Adams is a certainly big fan of him and he seems to have gone up a gear since you've come in I mean you sort of see a lot of potential in a play like that and Elliott's done really well since coming in I don't think notwithstanding he's sending off which was a great but I think his impact on the team has grown in terms of his influence where he plays and his importance to the team when he links the player and obviously we start to circulate the ball then obviously a lot of play goes through him and he's grasped that role and understands the role and understands what's required and what we ask of him in terms of the ability to get on the half-turn angle passing forward and just setting the momentum of the team and he's done that really well because considering his age he's played a lot of first-team football and he's held you missed a game here now which I think is anything to do with him what I like about Elliott as well he's vocal we probably need a little bit more of that but if we're honest we're quite quiet in terms of on the pitch I think we probably need more guys within the group that are able to understand what's actually going on as it happened to some and be able to manage themselves and manage from within the team I can't always be myself on glint shot and bowling on the sidelines they have to have their ability to be able to recognise what's happening and act accordingly so we probably need to be better in that regard and obviously talking about Elliott presumably he's another player coming out of contract presumably he's a sort of player that other clubs will probably look at yeah we'll get offers for players that we want to keep that's a given we understand that but we've just got to make sure that we're in the ballpark when these decisions are made and we're in there with a fine chance again the players that we want even the ones within the club now and the ones outside that we want to attract
