[00:00:58]To see your team win here at Wembley is absolutely glorious. The memories you create with your friends and families, it does not get any better.

[00:01:08]Bolton Wanderers against Stockport head-to-head this season, Stockport have the bragging rights. Stockport won the first game 2-0 and then in the second game, it was 2-2. So, Stockport have their number.

[00:01:22]Bolton obviously come here last time against Oxford and they just bottled it. They I don't even think they had a shot on target. And then obviously Stockport most recently against Luton in the virtual trophy final lost that one 3-1. So, both teams haven't got the best record. But, it's one game. One game to decide it all. Championship awaits the winner, like I say, and in the sunshine with friends and family, [music] does not get any better. It's the calm before the storm. Fans are slowly trickling in.

[00:05:47]It's going the distance. I want to be optimistic. I want to say like Stick with it. Stick with it.

[00:05:55]>> [laughter] >> I think it'll go the distance and we will potentially lose on penalties. But I'd like to be wrong.

[00:07:15]I'm good, to be honest with you.

[00:07:17]I think if they go out and play the game and not the occasion, use the width of the pitch, exploit our fast players down the wing and what have you, I don't want to predict a score, but I feel very confident, very relaxed, and I think we're going to do it today.
