‘They have been amazing the 12 of them, unbelievable,’ he said.

‘They were determined to set out and do the job themselves and for me it was an easy job to guide them in that direction.

‘Experience when you come in with the right attitude produces special things.

‘It was getting tight a little bit but I had belief and faith in this team that they were going to deliver and they delivered more than they should have.’
