Speaking to Geoff Shreeves about his new role on the Football, Music & Me podcast, he remarked: "Obviously Tim has [played] thousands of times, I’ll just be accompanying him.

"I’m worried about what I actually have to do, to be honest.

“Tim just said we’d play a group of songs on the Sunday night after the final acts are on, but obviously there’s loads of people still there."
