Stalybridge Celtic manager Simon Haworth is relishing the chance to right the wrongs of last season.
Despite a promising start to the campaign, Celtic began to fall away and were subsequently dragged into a relegation fight. Fortunately, the squad beat Grantham Town 1-0 to avoid the drop on the final day of the season.
Simon has since rebuilt over summer and now has a squad which he believes is capable of holding their own in an increasingly competitive division.
We spoke to the former Wigan Athletic striker ahead of the club's pre-season friendly at Abbey Hey on Saturday.
