You can't sit back, rest on laurels and think about the past - what the journey has been.

That was how I felt at non-league. I never looked at it then and said, 'I want to be a Premier League manager one day'. I just wanted to do a good job and see where it could take me.

Dave Bassett was a key influence on me, the way he treated and talked to people. Wimbledon and Sheffield United were quite direct sides and he got the best out of what he had, but he was an innovator.

They don't see half-hearted performances, they don't see people that are not running around. They see players competing, putting in the effort and enthusiasm.

My players have to be competitors before footballers. They don't pull out of tackles in training. It's full-tilt and if we pick up injuries, we pick up injuries. They have to give everything on the pitch and leave it all out there.

I'm not bothered how people feel. This is a real tough sport.

I never had a dream of being in the Premier League.

I'm one who will go and have a beer with my pals on a Sunday afternoon. I'll go on a Friday night and have an hour with my pals, lads that I've knocked about with for 20-25 years.

I still live in the city. I still jump on the bus.
