A big improvement - 22/04/2003
We’ve done well recently, and three wins out of five only tells part of the story. It’s not just the results, but the way we’re playing football that’s pleasing. We’ve played some decent teams and managed to get results, and we can even take positives from the Watford defeat [More]

Press article: The times are a changin' - 06/04/2003

Brentford – No excuses - 06/01/2003

Beware the Wolves - 03/01/2003
The F.A. Cup is a very special competition, I know it’s been knocked in recent years, especially when Man Utd failed to enter, but as a boy scoring goals in the school yard, it was always a repeating dream to score the winner in the F.A. Cup Final at Wembley. [More]

It's the big one!It's the big one! - 19/10/2002
It’s Forest on Sunday, and everyone at the club knows how important this is to the fans. I’ve played in some big derby’s before, but although there won’t be 50,000 at Pride Park, it’s still going to be a cracking atmosphere [More]
