Quotes

Paul Hart

"The first day of training was very good. I was very pleased with the players and their commitment to the cause of keeping this club in the Championship.

"We have a couple of people who are feeling a slight niggle but other than that we are in good shape. They have had a tough run of games in a short space of time so that was inevitable, but overrall I have been very impressed with everyone at the club so far."
