Roger Hannah

You opened the show brilliantly.

Thank you, Roger.

I appreciate that.

Although my departure was unceremonious.

Well, listen, you know, you bring these presenters through for the infirmary and this is what happens, Laurie, you know.

I thought it was extremely rude to you.

No, listen, I was going for a laugh, Roger.

Anyway, my point this evening is, and I'll address my comments to yourself, Roger.

The Blessed Martin, a man for all seasons indeed.

Last season, this season, to come, and hopefully the season after that as well.

Nothing short of phenomenal what he achieved.

Brought us back from the dead virtually, and resurrected our fortunes in winning a double.

Specifically, the point I would like to make, Roger, is I think it's inevitable that there will be wholesale changes

taking place.

There'll be some departures inevitably.

There's a few players on loan and others will come in.

I know that his appointment is imminent.

I would like it to be sooner rather than later because there's a squad that's going to be rebuilt.

Of course there's a Champions League qualifier to take place and of course the World Cup as well.

Actually, what I thought, Roger, there's 48 teams participating in the World Cup.
