Last season, the Angels were on FanDuel Sports Network West, owned by Main Street Sports. The company has been in a rough financial spot for a while and recently missed some payments to teams. In response, the Angels and the eight other teams who were signed with Main Street terminated their deals last month.

Marco Silva's side had done brilliantly to fight back from two goals down, only for the big Slovenian to hammer a drive into the top corner just three minutes after Kevin had found the top corner.

"Well, I have to say we've been overwhelmed by texts coming in from listeners, but I won't read them all out because my late father used to quote the proverb: 'Self-praise is no praise'. "But on the other hand, he used to also say: 'If you want to be a somebody, you've got to bang, bang, bang on the drum'. Bit confusing for a young lad. "I will read, and I have been reading the texts that are coming in, and to be quite honest, I'm a bit overwhelmed. But the time has come to thank a few people."
