Aidy Boothroyd has said that he does not expect to be able to get over Northampton Town's loss in last weekend's League Two playoff final.
The Cobblers lost 3-0 to Bradford City at Wembley, ensuring that they will remain in the fourth tier for another season.
The club's manager told BBC Radio Northampton: "I don't think I'll ever get over that. I'm not going to sulk about it but I'll be reminding the players how that felt.
"I don't want to be a nearly man again and I don't want the players to be that either. We didn't lay a glove on them. Bradford had more experience of the big occasion than we did, but just getting somewhere is not enough, it's about winning it.
"I think we need one or two wide players, another front player and a goalkeeper. We're going to find it easier attracting players than when we were bottom of the league and I had to practically kidnap people to get them in."
Northampton finished the season sixth in the League Two table.
