4. Make sure you soul-search
"We'll lick our wounds, go away and do a bit of soul-searching. We'll have to ask ourselves some questions after that."
Just let people know that you don't accept mediocrity.
5. Always dress up a defeat
"I don't think 15 points is a fair reflection of what we saw out there. There's not that much between the two teams."
You're much better than that of course.
6. Always play down a victory
"I think the goals probably came at just the wrong time for them and, with some of the chances they had, on another day they could've won by 16."
Never take pride in what you did.
7. Use the media to fire your team up
"We've been reading all sorts in the media, saying we're this and that and suggesting we don't have the forwards."
If that doesn't get them fired up, nothing will.

"We're not too bothered about what we read in the papers. If that's people's opinions, then that's their opinions."

Don't actually talk about it though.

"We'll just get back out on

"We'll just keep our heads down and keep working."
Just do it, okay.
17. The manager picks the team
"Of course I'd love to play but the manager picks the team. You'll have to ask him."
18. Let the interview take on a life of its own
"The game took on a life of its own out there. It ebbed and flowed and it could've went either way."
Good job it was a game of two halves.
19. Get over the line
"Lookit, we're just relieved we got over the line in the end, I suppose. We live to fight another day."
