Jon

1. You scored one of the most famous FA Cup goals of all time, when you scored the winner in City's 4-3 replay win at Tottenham, do you still get reminded of this a lot?

2. After Man City, you found it difficult to settle down with a team, why do you think this is?

Jon, did you enjoy your time at Ipswich and would you have liked to have joined on a permanent basis?

Any more question for Jon?
