💬 Gary Caldwell on win over Stevenage

Manager's post match thoughts

6 April 2024

Gary Caldwell has given his thoughts after City secured a 1-0 win over Stevenage at SJP.

Reece Cole's second match winner in a row, and his seventh of the season, secured the points as the Grecians all but secured League One safety. 

"I'm really pleased with parts of that performance," Gary said.

"Stevenage are a really difficult team to play against and have had an unbelievable a season. That is a game that I think we'd have lost earlier in the season. The character, the determination and the spirit of the group was first class.

"There are still areas I want us to be better, I want us to recognise when the opposition lock on man for man, but I'm delighted with the result, the attitude, application and desire to win, but there are definitely areas to improve."

Gary also confirmed post-match that Alex Hartridge will be leaving the club at the end of the season. Hartridge was handed the captain's armband for Saturday's match, before being awarded man of the match. 

"It's no surprise that he is leaving next season and we have offered him contracts and he is choosing to go elsewhere. He has come back into the squad and showed his professionalism, and we felt he deserved this game today as captain."
