Gray to lead Cobblers next term

The Cobblers lost 3-0 at Leeds on the final day of the season to confirm their fate but Cardoza has insisted he will be sticking by his manager. "Stuart Gray will be given the chance to bring us back up next season, and work starts now to plan and strengthen the squad for the campaign ahead," he said. Cardoza knows that Gray will not have an easy task in bringing Town back up at the first attempt and admits that changes must be made at the club. "Mistakes have been made this season, and it is important we learn from those mistakes. We know that League Two will not be easy, we remember how difficult it was to get out of League Two last time, but it is our expectation and intention to bounce back at the first attempt. "Sitting around moping will not help us, we have to take relegation on the chin, have a full debrief and learn the lessons of this season, particularly learning from the mistakes that have been made."
