"I have got friends who support both clubs, the banter has started and I am excited and looking forward to the game now. It's a massive fixture and we know we let everyone down last season, but this is a big chance to put the record straight.
"We are aiming for all three points and it is down to us really. I love the banter with the fans and it happens at most games. It can sometimes make me play better as I aim to prove them wrong, and Sunday will be no different."
