he said, "Look, come in. Be number two and give
good competition to Rob." And once my opportunity comes
around, I need to take it. So I'd like to think there isn't a number one
at this club who is going
to start every game. But obviously, the manager
gave that shirt to Rob, and then obviously
when he gets injured, I'm coming in and
I'm fighting for that shirt. I did start fresh
to start the season. But I had to do that,
because if I didn't do that, then I probably wouldn't
be playing football anymore. But it just sucked the life
out of me, really

You had 5,000 fans
on a player's back
00:00:03.024 --> 00:00:04.031
every single week,
00:00:04.038 --> 00:00:07.045
and he wants to go out
and do his best.
00:00:07.052 --> 00:00:08.098
And he's got that in his head
00:00:09.001 --> 00:00:10.296
every time he steps
on the football pitch.
00:00:10.032 --> 00:00:11.096
It's not easy.
00:00:12.002 --> 00:00:15.001
"The season, the gaffer,
he said, "Look, come in.
00:00:15.016 --> 00:00:17.097
Be number two and give
good competition to Rob."
00:00:18.999 --> 00:00:21.094
And once my opportunity comes

00:00:22.002 --> 00:00:23.001
So I'd like to think
00:00:23.011 --> 00:00:25.065

00:00:25.072 --> 00:00:27.099

But obviously, the manager
gave that shirt to Rob,
00:00:30.093 --> 00:00:32.006
and then obviously
when he gets injured,
00:00:32.067 --> 00:00:37.007
I'm coming in and
I'm fighting for that shirt.
00:00:37.014 --> 00:00:39.061
I did start fresh
to start the season.
00:00:39.068 --> 00:00:43.025
But I had to do that,
because if I didn't do that,
00:00:43.032 --> 00:00:45.166
then I probably wouldn't
be playing football anymore.
00:00:45.019 --> 00:00:47.066
But it just sucked the life
out of me, really.
