becoming continuing
It's one that we don't want to push, because we don't want it becoming a continuing problem.
bad belt character game gave happy mark three twice win
It's the first game of the season, you want to get off the mark and get that first win under your belt so we're very happy to get the three points. ... We gave up two bad goals, but with that, we were able to come back twice which is good. We showed a lot of character and that is something I think is really important.
carried club decision difficult eddie faith grown hard head mature national nearly player seen team time win
It's probably the most difficult decision I've had to make in the time I've been the head coach. I'd come to this club around about the same time Eddie was drafted. He's grown up here while I've been here, and, you know, I put a lot of faith in him two years ago and he carried our team nearly all the way to the playoffs. I've seen him mature and get better as a player and win national team honors, so, yes, that was a very hard to let Eddie go.
came everybody exercise goal good group happy main minutes
It was a good exercise. We got the main group through 45 minutes each and that's what the goal was and I'm happy that everybody came out unscathed.
eddie forward healthy looking miss needs obviously order rest soon trying valuable
Eddie is a valuable part of what we are trying to do here, so obviously we are going to miss him. However, we want him to get the rest that he needs in order to get healthy and we're looking forward to getting him healthy and getting him back as soon as possible.
against build cup gets great group means sure time
It's great for that group over there (The Inferno) because I know the Brimstone Cup means a lot to them. We keep it here against the old enemy, so to speak, and it gets us into our cup final. First time we've been in one of those for a long time, so a lot of positives. Now we've got to be sure we build on it.
bit came deserved ended felt good last playing playoffs team year
They've started very, very well. They came off last year a little bit disappointed about the way things ended for them. I know they felt they should have got to the playoffs and probably deserved to. So, they have come out this year after it. They are a very good team and are playing well.
conversion critical data loss means otherwise
It means that any loss of data on conversion is not as critical as it would otherwise be.
best decide decided decisions looking
We're still looking at all decisions this week. Obviously, we have Carlos (Ruiz) missing. We have got to decide what's the best way for us to go. So, we haven't decided on a lineup yet.
good last midfield played year
We've got good flexibility in our midfield and with our forwards. He's played there last year and this year, so you know, we'll see how it goes.
aiming cup league return win
We are aiming to win the league and cup this season, and also return to Europe.
against bit combined groin minutes nice played touches
Yeah, he has played well. He has a bit of a groin strain, but he went through 45 minutes (Saturday against Houston) and I thought he showed some nice touches and combined well with the group, so he's doing well.
appear five four serious
We'll know more tomorrow. But it doesn't appear to be anything too serious ... nothing that's going to keep him out four or five weeks.
cost definitely deserved errors goals played
We definitely deserved to get something from the game. We played well enough, even with 10 men, to get something from the game. But our own errors cost us two goals in the first half,
