"He knows what it takes to be successful at this leveI and it is great news that he has committed his future to the club.”

Ross told us: “I’m extremely happy to extend my stay and to continue working with great people at the football club.

“I would like to thank Justin and Louise, the players, the staff, and our incredible supporters for their trust and continued support.

“It is a privilege to lead this team, and I’m fully committed to helping the club achieve its new ambitions.

"We have made important progress together, but there is still much more to accomplish. I am excited about the future and look forward to continuing this journey with everyone connected to the club.”
