“I’m very, very fortunate to be in this position and have the input that I do have and have that working relationship with Stephen that he allows me to crack on and do what I do, and we work very much as a team and like I said it’s something I’m very, very passionate about. “I’ve touched on it already, we’re in this together and he’s always been the focal point and having to face tough questions when things weren’t going particularly well and we were enduring a bit of a tough period.
“Even though the results hadn’t been amazing to that point, I did feel we were in a good place and it was coming, I could feel it, I could sense it, you see it every time you go on to the training pitch with the players that we’ve got, such a humble and ambitious group of players that we have, I just felt that was probably it, it just needed a different voice at the time.”During the tough times, Andrews says his boss remained composed.
