Gary Caldwell: Exeter City boss says he does not need to take any credit for upturn in form

Exeter City manager Gary Caldwell says he does not “need credit” for a turnaround in the club’s league form.

After gaining only four points from a possible 27 in January and February, the Grecians have gone five unbeaten in League One – including back-to-back home wins against Shrewsbury and Mansfield – to move eight points clear of the relegation zone.

The club were also forced into multiple signings at the end of the January transfer window due to injuries and the re-calling of defender Tristan Crama by Premier League side Brentford.

However, Caldwell has partly attributed the upturn in form to the work done at a training camp in Spain.

“Just having different people sitting together at lunch, and on different tables, created a new dynamic within the group,” he told BBC Radio Devon.

“What we did over there on and off the pitch has had a big impact.

“They’ve come back in a better place and they’ve got results which has given them confidence in the team and how they’re playing.”
