Gradi said: "We'll go on, life goes on. I'm not dwindling, it's actually exciting. It's nerve-wracking, but it's exciting.
"We'll play out the remaining games properly - we might give a few chances to some players, but that will be all. We'll work hard and regroup and get ready for next year.
"We've worked hard. I've made some mistakes but I've done the best I could with what we have. It's been a good effort by this group of players and if we had had them together for longer it might have been different."
