Management Comments:
Justin Edinburgh – “ The Christmas period gives you a chance to put a good run together and if not and you don’t get the right result, you have the opportunity to put it right very quickly. This festive period and the Easter run of games often shape the league.”
“I will always do what I think is best for the players, the team and the club, I think more times than not I’ve done that well during my time here and hope to continue to do so.”
“We go to win every game, play to our strengths. 80% of work we do is about us. Expectation has changed; it’s my job to manage that. Not to get too over-excited or overwhelmed, it is to make sure we remain level headed and continue what we’re doing.”
“Every game is a big game because that’s the position we’ve put ourselves in. I applaud the players for that, I think they’ve done brilliantly and I’m delighted with them.”
“Everyone is chasing us now, everyone wants to beat us and people want to get to where we’ve been at all season. With Millwall we’ve got another team chasing us, with a bigger playing budget, bigger finances and gates but we will go there with the belief we can perform and get something from the game.”
