Last updated : 11 October 2012 By Footy Mad - Editor

Derek Llambias: "It's been a big fortnight - a very big fortnight. For me, it's all about stability.

"To be able to get the coaching staff and the manager on side for eight-year deals, and then complete our sponsorship deal with Wonga, plus the stadium naming rights as part of that - it's a good two weeks, it's a very good two weeks for the club.

"It's all about the season for us now. It's about getting the injuries cleared up - but that's Alan's job. Thank God I don't have to get too involved in that.

"We started off poorly. I came in after the first year, I picked up from there and it's been a difficult, difficult period.

"We have been plugging away, slowly. You don't understand what we have done - we have done a good job. We have been realistic about what this club can do and what it can do in the future.

"Financially we are stable and we will get stronger and stronger. You have to understand, we have got an owner who's not used to failure. What we have got now is a very good format moving forward."
