“He has never coached a women’s team before, which we have taken as a positive, because it has good to get a fresh insight on the game.

“He can take what he knows from the men’s game and implement it into our own.”

The message is clear going into the new season, with fans encouraged not to lose hope as they should feel very encouraged for the new season.

“There have been a few setbacks, but it looks as if they have used those setbacks to spring on and get better than ever.”
