What they Said
โIt is obviously easier to prepare the team for Wembley than it is to get them in the right frame of mind for a match like this.
โWhile I've been trying to keep the lads front thinking of Wembley until after the Bury game, I have had six weeks to think about my team and plans for the gnat
"Nothing I saw at Bury will influence me or change my mind.โ
Vic Crowe.
