"The management have taken serious blows. They've f**king... excuse me. They've shouldered a lot of the criticism for us, and how we've performed really, as a team, for two years.

"Sticking to your own game-plan," and having teammates to back him up whenever he may have slipped or erred were key, he said, for keeping that lid on David Clifford, as much as he could.
