I have no doubt about that. So she was probably the first person."I kept the circle pretty small to be honest, because I think when you start talking to too many people you can have all sorts of different emotions and things like that."So I always speak to my mum and dad but it was more talking through what I was thinking instead of getting their opinion on it.



I have always wanted to play games and things like that has not happened as much."I have still played a good few games this season but maybe not as much as I am used to and I think I am still only 32. You know me and Richard have had discussions, me and (FSG president) Mike Gordon have even had talks and things like that."The relationships have always been really good, I have always had really good relationships and it was important for me to keep it that way and I am happy that I've had nine years and I leave with no regrets, no bitterness, nothing like that."I am really happy with the journey that I have had and the relationships I've had with the people that are at the top of the club are intact and really good.
