"I'm a winner, and hopefully we can get Dundela winning on the pitch. What the supporters will get is 100% commitment and 100% effort. We've got a certain style of play and we want to see Dundela playing good football.
 
"The drive is for the Premiership, and that's where I want take to the club. We’ll be working as hard and as quickly as we can and for the moment will be focusing on player recruitment, and trying to attract the best players to Dundela, players that are winners and that are hungry for success."
