Top goalscorer Michael Smith also needs an injection in his toe before the Pompey game if he’s to be able to play.
 
Later in the episode, Warne discusses his relationship with the chairman Tony Stewart and Robinson does the same with his boss Sumrith ‘Tiger’ Thanakarnjanasuth. Tony Stewart talks about the responsibility of running the club, the team’s wavering form, his own long term expectations and whether or not they include his current manager.
