Yes.
Well, what it was, so Don Howe was the coach at QPR, one of the coaches.
And he'd spoken to Bob and asked if he would come in and give me some lessons.
Lessons.
It's weird.
You know, like, come and coach me for QPR.
And he would come in once a week while he was still at Arsenal as well.
Yeah, you know, so obviously he was going back and telling George that, you know, this goalie's not bad.
But I don't know, it was just a relationship that we had.
But then again, it's the fact that Bob played for Arsenal, you know, and as he told me, he was the first goalkeeper to win the double for Arsenal.
And he used to tell me that all the time.
And even to the point where, like, cup finals or, like, deciding matches to win a league or whatever, he'd always leave, like, a little note, like, where I used to get changed or a pair of his gloves.
You know, if I can do it in these gloves, just look what you can do in yours.
And these, like, sort of little motivational snippets.
That were brilliant, you know.
And then even, like...
When his daughter, Anna, was diagnosed with cancer, you know, like little bits, like do it for Anna and all that sort of stuff.
And it was just, he was so good at that, the motivational side of it.
Whereas technically it wasn't really there for that.
He was there to make sure that I was right in my head and that I had everything covered in the week in training.
