"It's been a very enjoyable campaign – we said right at the start that League One is a very hard division to play in when you have the likes of Nottingham Forest and Leeds to play against.

"Everybody at Swansea City should be very proud about promotion – we worked very hard to get it and we did it in style.

"If you only play pretty football you will end up as a mid table side – you can only do that on certain occasions or certain days.  We succeed because we are strong, determined and hungry for success.

"We went one goal behind but we kept the same mentality and once we got the two goals we understood what was needed to ensure we won the game, it was a very good performance in different ways.

"We have shown this season that we have got different dimensions in our play without having to use the percentage game and I think that is the way the Swansea fans would like it to be.  Some of the football we played this season has been special and I am sure will be remembered for the rest of our history.

"We've got three games left – it's been 24 years waiting for this moment – and the fans should enjoy it but we now have an opportunity to win the title and we will give it everything that we have got.

"But promotion was the most important aim and we have moved the football club to the next level."
