IT’S been an eventful two weeks at the club since my last column as I’m sure you’re all aware but I’d like to think that we can get back to normal now that the dust has settled.

I was unable to write about the situation last week because everything was up in the air but now that Justin Edinburgh has moved on to Gillingham I have to pay a big tribute to what he did for my hometown club.

On a personal not I’m gutted he’s gone. He’s done so much for this club with the promotion and two Wembley appearances and getting us to Rodney Parade as well, which I think was crucial.

The position we’re in now compared to where we were when he came in says it all really.

The average crowd has more or less trebled and, as far as I’m concerned, Justin has done nothing but good for this club.

There aren’t enough words to describe how much respect I’ve got for the guy.

As everyone has said it dragged on for far too long but I can see it from all sides.

Justin wanted to go to Gillingham and they wanted him as cheap as they could get him.

We wanted to get the best price for Justin and why should we give one of our main assets away on the cheap?

But I know the club was happy with the deal in the end and it’s done now so we have to move on.

He’s got his move and has started really well and I wish him nothing but success at one of my old clubs.

We’ve got Jimmy Dack and Wayne Hatswell in charge and I’m helping out with the coaching as well and we’re looking forward now.

All the boys are fully behind them and in lots of ways it is the same as it ever was because they did most of the coaching before anyway.

Justin is a manager and not so much a coach but Hats is a great coach and Dacky has stepped up into the manager’s role and is enjoying the challenge.

We’re all in it together and after a really bad run I believe we have turned the corner now.

The first half against Tranmere the other night was just not good enough from us but after the break there were plenty of encouraging signs.

We did enough to win it but the best thing was that we were creating a lot of chances, which is something we haven’t done lately.

The strikers get it in the neck when they’re not scoring but we haven’t been creating chances for them up until Tuesday so hopefully we can carry that on at Wycombe today.

I have good memories of playing at Adams Park last season when my goal gave us a 1-0 win on Boxing Day 2013.

It was an unbelievable pass from Adam Chapman and he’s someone who can see a ball that nobody else can.

I enjoy playing with him in midfield but at the moment we’re sitting on the bench together and doing each other’s heads in!

He can be a nightmare at times but he’s a great lad and we’ve got a good relationship.

People ask what we talk about on the bench and it’s all game-related; we’re not talking about what’s going on in Eastenders.

We talk about how the game is going, what the crowd are shouting out or what the managers are yelling.

Dacky comes out with some pearlers and people like Yan Klukowski and Danny Elliott are all having their say.

It’s an interesting perspective and now that I’m doing my coaching badges and working with the academy I have started to see it more from a manager’s point of view as well.

I’m always learning and the more I can pick up when I’m not playing the better.

If we’re doing well it’s a happy place to be but if we’re getting turned over it is obviously pretty gloomy.

And we owe Wycombe one today because they turned us over at home on the opening day of the season.

I started that game and people said we were bad but they were a very good side.

I was surprised because they probably should have been relegated the previous season.

Gareth Ainsworth has done a really good job to turn it round there and we’ll have to be at our best today but if we can replicate what we did in the second half on Tuesday I know we can bring the points home.
