So at Goodison and at Premier League, you have understool heating, right?

So they were saying, we can't have this game off.

We have to play this game.

So literally they were, they had makeshift tarps, not just the groundsman, not the team.

Makeshift tarp, right?

We turn up there.

Like these people are like delighted because it's like a Premier League team, like came to see their ground.

He then takes us inside the dressing room, which was clever, which is clever because the dressing room was no bigger than the studio I was in.

And the studio is a trillion times nicer.

And you couldn't, you couldn't stand shoulder to shoulder.

And we got back on the bus and he basically said like,

You ain't going to be surprised tomorrow.

No matter what you do, you ain't going to be surprised tomorrow.

And that's why he brought us there on the Friday.

And I remember we won.

I think Leon Osmond scored a great goal, but it was tight.

It was like 1-0 or 2-1.

And we barely got out of there with a win and went on to have a great cup run.

But I remember thinking, like, this is insane.

Like, when you get to the perimeter, you forget what the others don't have.
