 Mark, rwy'n fawr y gallwch cyntaf, rwy'n fawr hwnnw i gwaith yng Nghymru, John Tomkinson. Rhywbeth fawr yw'n ddorolol i ddechrau'r rhai cyntaf ar y Lailenion? Narhwch am ymweld, mae'r rhaid i rhaid i ddechrau'r cyntaf, ac mae'n cynghwys hwnnw. Mae'n cwestiynau bod y gweithio'r llwystdau yn ddigadol. Wir e os ydym ni'n cymhiliad iaith y llyffydd rhywbeth yn tari'r llwyffyr. Mae'r ddynch yn yn ôl, er fyddai'n rhoi cerdd solidus, yn gyfnod y cychwynedd. Maen nhw'n cael llun gyda'r nhw. Maen nhw'n cael eu siaradau am y cyfnodol. Wrth gweithio gwybod eich cyfnod o'r ffyrddol. When do you bring to the group? I've got good ability on the ball, got good pace as well. Good passion, ability as well as you'd imagine. He's one certainly that will make a claim for a spot. He needs to get up to speed in terms of what we want from him to get a good understanding of that and understand what demands there are on us. Felly yn ni'n ddweud i'ch bwysig o'r cyffredin ar gyfer mynd gael y cyffredin a wneud i'r rhaid i'w ddweud i'w ddweud. A oes gyd y bydd y dyfodol y ffordd yn y ffordd o'r cwyloss? Felly, mae'n ddiwy'n wneud i'w ddechrau, mae'n rhai hyn yn cael ei fod yn y bwysig, mae'n rhaid i bwysig o'r cyffredin a'r bwysig, ond rhaid i'w ddweud i'w ddweud i'w ddweud i'w ddweud i'w gael. If JT, as they've imprisoned him, is able to make us better in that regard, then that's great because he wants to make an impression, he wants to keep developing his own career and he has a good opportunity here, a good platform to be able to do that. So, yeah, we wish him well. Does he come into contention for Saturday? We'll win seal, like I said, he needs to get up to speed in terms of what we expect, he's coming into a new environment so what he's been told at his parent club may well be slightly different to what we expect so it's about getting those details right but I wouldn't rule him out but maybe it's a little bit soon but I'll make a decision the area of the day really. Just on that front, how are you elsewhere going into that game? We've got a few injuries there, we've got a doubt over Tyler unfortunately and he poked up in training on Tuesday so he didn't train today so we'll give him as long as he needs and hopefully he'll be okay but at the moment he's a doubt. We've got a couple back, Ash Taylor's back training with the group, Gillies' back training with the group so we've got a couple coming back but obviously losing Tyler if we do lose him is a blow. If he's not available, where does that leave you for striking options? We've got options, we can look at different things and yeah, we probably haven't got a real focal point in terms of like a cookie obviously or a verdaine so we'll have to approach that or our forward play in a little bit of a different way just because we haven't got that focal point but no, we've got good players in the top end of the pitch that can affect the game in different ways. Is Kevin at Donald? Kev as well, so Kev back in the training group didn't do the whole session today but we've just eased him back, we'll see how he is tomorrow, yeah we'll take it from there but he's obviously in contention. And just finally on this front and the situation, I know you said on Saturday was it a couple of weeks is that very much still the case? It's probably a little longer than that to be honest. We had good news that the specialist don't think it needs surgery which was the big worry for everybody, obviously for Andy himself clearly but that's been cleared so that's a good thing but he still needs a number of weeks to be able to come back. But I think there sometimes specialists and consultants err on the side of safety and picking a random number out and you think to me he's not going to be out that long is he? So we think given how Andy's feeling himself and the need so then I think he'll be back sooner rather than later but it's not going to be two weeks, it'll be longer than that. Just on Saturday's opponents Grimsby, what are your thoughts about that game that's of course on the television as well? Well yeah early kickoff I think that's the initial thought in terms of how there affects our preparation and maybe the opposition as well so yeah you just have to adjust accordingly but Grimsby have had a good start. They've been able to obviously benefit from some outstanding goals. I think the reality is we are actually probably higher there in terms of expected goals but they've been scoring from outside of the box from 20, 30 yards so that's obviously enabled them to win games but they're expected goals are probably half of what the goals they've actually scored. So they're riding that way but at the moment so it's up to us to make sure we don't give them any opportunities. A player that you know well scoring a few of those great goals? Yeah I've always always been capable of that if you look at those goals in the past they're of a similar type so yeah he hasn't lost that ability, he'll never lose that ability so yeah we've just got to make sure he doesn't get in those key areas of the field where he likes to produce. He's obviously moved on now, he's with Grimsby. Just how difficult a decision if it's difficult at all was that in the summer to move in a different path? Well it is difficult, we all know how much struggle with injuries here for whatever reasons couldn't get a run of consistent game time. The injuries always just used to step in and hold him back and he's won't step forward almost always three steps back and he had to build himself up again so it was a frustration for him and clearly for me as well. And obviously we were in Fenniston for two years while he was here we didn't really get a return on those two years just because he couldn't have that sustained fitness that he needs. So it would have been very difficult to offer him anything on the basis of that so clearly he's going to run now and that's hopefully what's going to enable him to have consistent appearances which he could never do here. So we're wishing well, he was always well thought of here, nice kid and got a lot of time for our board, it'd be nice to see him at the weekend. Nice to be back at Bally Parade. Yes it seems a long time ago clearly. It was only the third game in nine at home so it's been a challenge for us but we're okay. I think it's good to be back home. We've won the first two games which is the first time we've done that for a number of years so it would be good to continue in that vein and get another win on the board at home. That's going to be important for us clearly and let's see where the game takes. It's going to be a good side and try and play in an attacking manner that may well help us because that'll give us opportunities going the other way. I know we say a lot about travelling and what not but the amount of away games that you've had but how much of a difference does it actually make to just have a couple of home games on the horizon? Well yeah I mean the away games are different, it's different environment, it's different preparation in terms of bus travel or however we travel and the times are different so it is disruptive whereas when we're at home it's familiar, it's comfortable, we know exactly where we're going, we know what we want to do and the times and all that sort. That is pretty planned and you feel more comfortable in your surroundings and obviously given the support we have at home as well it just all comes together and on that basis that's why home games are better than away games so that's why we're looking forward to it at the weekend. It's an opportunity once again to get points on the board and continue that run of form at home. Just final one from me, just on Daniel Roy you're okay, you used him in a central midfield role recently, just your thoughts on that? Yeah I think he's got the potential to play a day, yeah a sign of good players that you can play in any number of positions, clearly he was brought as a right back or a wing back, you can play both positions really well, you can play the right side centre back as well. Yeah and I just think that's an option for us, something that was worth looking at, he's obviously got a physical presence that sometimes we need in games in that middle area of the field. So yeah it's something that we'll look at again, I'm sure in training we see him in there and be impressed with his ability just to adapt and be efficient in his work in a different area of the field. So that's credit to him that he has that capacity. Did you know that upon his arrival? No not really, I just looked at his ability on the ball which is good, he's quick enough and sharp enough to be able to cope in there. Sometimes central defenders find it a little bit more difficult but obviously he's comfortable in wider positions as well so that ability on the ball lends itself well to maybe defensive midfield positions as well. So I think it's a good option that we might pursue in certain games, not every game obviously, but it's a good option to have knowing that Daniel can cope if he needs to go into those areas. Next one. All given. You said obviously early kick off which changes things, also being on telly, Megan, I want to talk to you before the game and things like that, how much does it change your prematch routine? It doesn't change at all, some might say I've had my air cut but there's a few air cuts actually in the group so I think they've noticed but in fairness the vast amount of managerial career was in the spotlight on TV cameras were all over the place so it doesn't really phase me. The lads themselves have been televised in numerous games throughout their careers so it's not such a big thing these days I think. For me there might be a little bit more to do prize of the game and after the game but in terms of their presence being there affecting how we think that doesn't affect it. There's one thing that might affect the temperature that's predicted to be in the 30s again. Or maybe that's a benefit of kicking off 12 o'clock, mind you that's the hottest time of the day we're talking about so yeah we will have to wait and see yeah we were in a warm snap at the moment so different from the cold snap that we seem to have been in for the length of the summer break. I think certainly last weekend maybe the heat because it was the first warm day I think we'd had for quite some time I think that maybe just took a little bit of the edge out of our dynamic play in terms of being able to get up to people who just took a little bit of the energy out of both teams in fairness I said after the game. So we've had the benefit of training and working in the heat all week so I would like to think we'd be fine now so it's just about making sure you work correctly at the right times and when you get the opportunity to conserve the energy that's when you do it but you don't do it when you need to expend and that's the key. Bobby pointed, he had half an hour his longest run out on the Saturday look bright again I mean how do you manage his expectations and perhaps the expectations of those around him because obviously the crowd is saying he's one of our own and he's a Bradford lad coming through and they're all desperate for him to do well. Well I think everybody is encouraged by how Bobby is progressing they can see that with their own eyes because obviously I'm giving him opportunities in the first team so we're not going to throw in in terms of we don't want him to sink we want him to swim so there's a danger sometimes if you put too much pressure on him too early then you can go the other way and that's detrimental to him and his development but he's doing very well at the moment. He's well thought of in the group because they can see he's a good young player and that's half the battle when you're trying to make your way in this game is that you'd accept it by your senior pros and they recognise the talent you have so he's very much part of the first team group now last year it was more that he was coming up from the academy and having sporadic training sessions with us and then going back to the academy and doing his work there but this year he's been with us from the outset So one of the main reasons I was comfortable enough letting Ryan East go out on loan to get game time because he obviously was desperate to play himself was that I knew that we had Bobby that could come in and it just opened his pathway open a little bit to allowing those opportunities and actually he's probably had more opportunities early on than I probably would have thought but he's there on merit he's training exceptionally well and when you're young player you've got to make an impression because that gives me a problem so he's doing that at the moment we're pleased with how he's progressing he's a good kid who wants to work and wants to learn which is the key he's very coachable he's a guy that takes in information and understands the game really really well for a young player so we're accredited to him He seems to have his feet very much on the ground Yeah he's got a good family around him as well that keep that in check so yeah I think he's on the right path he just needs to keep progressing and keep working down that path Obviously it can never to me have this buzz around him because he's a local lad and never because supporters always feel a bit of affinity for someone coming through so when he's out there straight away they're singing straight away Yeah that's always been the case whenever players that come through the ranks it doesn't matter which club you're at that's always the case there's a little bit as a young player coming through myself I was caught a little bit more slack when I made mistakes and I think that's true of all young players at any club Yeah everybody it's a real Philip for everybody I think there's a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes and the academy do a fantastic job here and the quality of the players that we get to obviously have a look at in senior training sessions is always good and that's credit to them On occasion as our numbers aren't correct for the session we want to do so we bring the young lads up and almost without fail they keep the standard the level it needs to be they're not detrimental to what we're doing just because they're an academy player so that's why we're more than happy to bring young players through Because we know they're at the right standard and the right level to make sure the sessions are good and on the back of that Bobby's been able to progress further so yeah it's working well at the moment Is Bobby developing at the level you were hoping he would do? Or is he above that? He had a really good pre-season I felt. He played good minutes in pre-season and I almost without fail impressed in every game he played so once the season starts I'm more inclined just to go with senior players initially but whenever he's introduced he makes an impression so he's doing very well It just don't grim as we haven't beaten in the last four couple of clean sheets in that as well with your sort of injuries in that attacking third what you talked about or how much you've got to tweak your approach this week in training for that? Well the fitness obviously we're lacking cookie as we know Tyler was a recent one so it looks like he may mess out for us as well so in this case today I've just seen the best options and best way to go to make sure that we've still got that attacking threat that clearly we need so we've still got good options, good options are wide we've got options down the middle as well So we may have to change it around a little bit in terms of what we want to do but we'll still have that threat that's the intention obviously we've just got to make sure that we're on the front foot and we're asking questions of them as long as we get good bodies and good numbers in the area where the ball is then it's difficult for the opposition and you can start creating
