Firstly, thank you to all of the supporters that have turned up in their hundreds this year. Your support means the world to me, the players and obviously, the club.
We feel your passion every time we step out on the pitch and long may that continue, as soon as it is safe to do so.

I would also like to thank all the staff at the club for all their hard work over the year, and what a year it has been.
This year has brought more challenges than anyone could have expected, both on and off the field.
From the disappointment of not being able to finish last season, when we would have been promoted, to the stop-start this season, it has been difficult to say the least.

However, the most important thing is keeping everyone as safe as possible - our time will come to shine again and I can promise you that we will be ready, as soon as football is able to return.

My players have been amazing over the last year and it wouldn’t be right to not thank them for all their hard work, patience, understanding and desire to improve every week. We are more than just a team and that has definitely played a massive part this year.

I wish you all a happy Christmas and a happy and healthy new year - I know this Christmas will look and feel different this year, but I hope you are all able to enjoy it as much as possible!

I look forward to seeing everyone again next year.

Thanks and stay safe,

Jim”
