Barry Robson

yeah they offer me a position and I'm really really enjoying being here and I'm looking forward to the start of the season big decision to make to uproot yourself from Aberdeen and move back over to Cork yeah they say us football managers are mad don't they we are mad but no listen an opportunity for a brilliant club big club beautiful city

Yeah, it was a no-brainer for me.

Yeah, of course it is, and that brings pressure, but as I said, nothing...

ever in 30 years in the game has anything ever come easy.

It never comes easy.

It's going to take a lot of hard work.

It's going to take a lot of people being at their best every single day, and that's training, games, bringing the best version of yourself every single day.

And you do all these things if we want to try and get to where we want to get to.

Yeah, well, just on the training pitch, there's been loads of other stuff going on.

So, yeah, over the next week or so, I'll have them all in and I'll get a chat with all of them.

I've had a couple of general meetings and the door's always open for the players all the time.

Just come if there's anything you need I can help you with.

And, yeah, they seem a really good bunch.

Well, first and foremost, you're going to need to be a hard-working team.

Nothing comes easy in football.

We want to be fast.

We want to be aggressive.

We want to press.

We want to...

make chances we want to score goals if we can and I suppose a lot of people never really talk about it but you cannot be a good attacking team until you're a good defensive team we need to be structurally good we need to be able to try and keep clean sheets 100% yeah there's a lot of speculation on Sean Maguire as you mentioned in the press conference but he's contracted the club and he's happy to stay yeah listen I'm getting lots of questions I'm just going to keep saying it I think he's a brilliant player and I think he's a brilliant boy and he's under contract at the club and I can't wait to get working with him he's also a player that a lot of younger players can learn a lot from
