Jordan, another win on Tuesday, another hard-fought win. Just what is the feeling in the camp at the moment? Manager’s ecstatic. You boys must be as well. Yeah, obviously it’s been a very good start. Um it’s only 11 games though. We’ve got to remind ourselves of that and we’ve got a very big month coming up, but yeah, everyone’s in very good spirits. York on Saturday. What do you remember about them last season as opponents? Yeah, obviously they were one of the top sides. Um play some lovely patterns. Um they’ve changed their manager, but obviously they had a very good win on Tuesday and they’re going to be high and confident. Well, that’s the thing. They put five past Carl Isle on Tuesday. As a defender, how do you view that? Do you see that as just a challenge or you back yourself? Yeah, it’s just another challenge. I think um every team brings their own challenges. Um like I say, their their patterns are really really good. Their movement’s really really good. Um they got some top strikers, so we’re going to we’re going have to be right on it and hopefully we can do that. Right. And the manager was just talking about being back at the new lawn, how important the fans are for you boys actually out there on the pitch. How important is it having that home sport behind you? Yeah, it’s massive. Um, obviously we’ve seen it, we’ve seen it this year, we saw a few times last year. When they get right behind us, um, we respond on the pitch and we’re going to need that all season and they’ve been they’ve been very good um, so far this season. And obviously York missed out on the playoffs last year in the semi-finals just as just as you boys did. Um, manager there is talking about winning the league. That’s the ambition for you players. Is it one step at a time? Take it game by game or can you sort of afford to look that far forward? I think you have to look that far forward. You have to you have to be thinking um about winning the league and and then if that’s that doesn’t become an option, you then move back down. But um right now we’re thinking about about winning the league and we’ll take each game as it comes to get to that point. Great. Jordan, good luck. Thank you. Jordan, just one quick one. How’s it been for you slotting back in alongside uh Ryan Inis and how pleased were were you for him to get that goal on Tuesday night? Yeah, it’s um really easy. Me and Ry have played a few years together now. So, uh we we know each of his games inside out and I think he he was delighted with the goal. He said before the game actually he’s due one. So, um was a great header. But that’s what I can bring in in both boxes. But on that, obviously, Aes is Aes has broke his jaw, but he’s been magnificent for us. Really, really pushing me and Ry, all three of us together, pushed each other, and that’s why you’ve had the performances that you have. Yeah. 16 players brought in at the start of this season. How’s it been for you sort of bedding in those those new players because it’s like just a completely new team, isn’t it? It is, but um I think I said at the start of the year, the lads that come in, they’re really good people first and foremost. So, it’s so it’s really really easy. Everyone’s getting on. Everyone’s pushing for the same things and it’s it’s a really good group. Yeah. Nearly two months unbeaten now. We’ve spoken to them, Robbie Savage, earlier and we talked about it being an invincible season. Do you believe that you could go the whole season unbeaten and do an Arsenal? To be honest, I don’t think I’ve thought of that one. But um like I say, we take we take each game as it comes. Uh we know we can win win every game and that’s all we got to we got to think about.
