Maidstone United manager Jay Saunders says he'd be an idiot to deny mistakes

Maidstone manager Jay Saunders feels he's made a number of mistakes this season and says he'd be an idiot to claim otherwise.

The Stones went 17 games without a win before clinching National League safety and honest Saunders has held up his hands.

He said: "I’ve made wrong decisions with signings and different things but I've learned from that and we'll look to move on.

"You can look back over loads of things, be it some signings, decisions in certain games or the training days, just everything really.

"It's been a learning curve for me. You've got to think as a manager I've only ever known two nights a week training and this year has been a big change.

"The days aren't right, so we'll change the days we train.

"There's just loads of things really.

"I'd be a fool to stand here and say I got everything right when we've had the struggle we have in the second half of the season.

"It's always easy to look back and say I should have done this or I should have done that.

"But, like I say, I haven't got everything right, no way, and I'd be an idiot to stand here and say I have.

"At the same time we have had a very unlucky season with regards to everything that could go wrong has gone wrong."
