He took over a team that was not his in 19th position and we ended the season one point adrift of a play-off spot. “I have to say it was a fantastic job. “Of course, we could have reacted much earlier but you are always twisted. “But it’s done and dusted. We have to look at what we can actively improve and do better in the upcoming season. “The bad performance in March definitely cost us the play-offs.
