"Like a lot of other teams, we've left a lot of points on the pitch, probably eight or ten games we should have gotten more from. There is some slight disappointment but it's still in our hands. It has been a successful year because we are back to some resemblance of a club looking forward. We have the right people here and we're moving forward. We'd love a promotion to go on too of that."
