9. On reflection of getting booked after sarcastically clapping the referee – do you have any public comment to make?

I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry 

Manager’s comments:

Some look upon Matt as a bit of a Mr Steady in the Kings side – but I don’t quite think that gives him the credit he deserves. Matt is a manager’s delight in that he very rarely has a bad game and never gets flustered on the ball and despite the now infamous clapping of the referee incident, he has a footballing brain which helps him hugely to get quickly in front of younger opposition forwards. Personally I’m really glad that Matt and his family are such a close friends, and I’m grateful for the help he gives me in filling in forms for the club. You played particularly well in those games in December Matt – so well done – much deserved.

Also, congratulations, this is the first ever interview where the questions are actually longer then the answers and you even avoided one question all together! Typical Fordham.
