Two weeks have past now whilst the disappointment of losing my job is still very much there, the feeling of wanted to succeed and prove people wrong is stronger than ever, learn from on it and move on, whilst it's a tough lesson my circle of trust is smaller but ready to go again

Delighted with the lads a whirlwind week but they've kept focused on the job in hand, Needham had lost one home game all season but we got the ball down and played attitude and work rate was exceptional I asked them to do the supporters and themselves proud and I think they did

When an opportunity arises and the positives outway the negatives, don't let those negatives stand in your way. One thing I've learnt this season is be braver when decisions need to be made, easy option isnt always the right one

Whilst hitting the 50 points target to many may seem irrelevant as a club this is a massive target hit alot has to go into it with very very few volunteers so to hit such a figure feels like a stride in the right direction it's not perfect but it's a work in progress, lots to do
