It is actually around the 3:30 time slot, and it is a very good interview so far.

Fixed.
Sounds as if what I was reading between the lines (from my earlier post yesterday) was 100% correct. I can just imagine Ricketts and Hendry and Gary Hughes sitting around, planning out our team's future. Whee.
