Colin Nish is confident he can make a successful return to management despite not having his contract renewed at Cowdenbeath. Former Hibernian and Kilmarnock striker Nish took charge of the Scottish League 1 side in the summer after signing as a player in January 2015. The club suffered a second straight relegation at the weekend when they lost 2-1 on aggregate to Queens Park in the League 1 play-off semi-final. On Thursday the club released a statement announcing Nish would not be offered a new contract after his deal expired at the end of the season.Despite relegation to Scotlands fourth tier, Nish told Sky Sports News HQ he was surprised by the decision as he had been assured he would be at Central Park regardless of where the club finished this season. Colin Nish holds off current Rangers assistant manager David Weir in a match in 2011 He said: Whether we were relegated or not I was told Id be there and I think at that time we were bottom of the league. We went on a good run and just missed out on staying up automatically.Thats why Im disappointed. Ive been involved in football for a long time and I know these things dont make much of a difference until something is signed.I was never in the position where I was 100 per cent sure Id be there, but at the same time I thank Cowdenbeath for the opportunity. Ive learned a lot this year which will hopefully hold me in good stead for the future.With limited resources, the former Hartlepool forward believes he did the best job possible and would love another go at management in the near future. Rangers 5-1 Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup fourth round Im proud of myself because I feel that I did a good job based on the budget that I had, which is all I can go by, he said.Nish continued: I want to do something in football, thats my passion and thats what I enjoy doing. Ive certainly not lost any confidence. If anything Ive gained confidence in my managerial capabilities.Ive learned a lot this year, probably more than I did in my playing career in terms of different things about being a manager. I will definitely come back stronger given the opportunity.The beginning of the season was really tough. I didnt have a team basically. Then I built a team I felt was capable of challenging for the play-offs going up the way.In January we lost a couple of players I signed on loan at the start, but we could only get them until January and they unfortunately left. That made it really difficult to build a team again. I felt like I nearly got there but there wasnt enough time to do it at the end of the season.I dont see any benefits from Cowdenbeath not keeping me on as a manager. I dont see whats going to change for them next year with a different manager. I think I proved this year that I was capable of building a team on a small budget. Unfortunately I lost that in January but I did prove that I can do it. Colin Nish reacts after Cowdenbeath lost to Rangers in the Scottish Cup Nish took Cowdenbeath to the Scottish Cup fourth round this year, where they were drawn against a resurgent Rangers at Ibrox. The tie was subsequently chosen to be live on Sky Sports, but Nish says the occasion was more of a hindrance than a highlight of his managerial career.He said: It was a distraction we didnt need really. And at the time we were going quite well and it was around that time we lost a lot of our players so that was the start of a difficult couple of months.The money the club received didnt do me any good in the long run because in January its hard to sign players so the money will probably be best used now.So I never got any benefit out of that. Im not saying that the club wouldnt have given me any money to strengthen. But hopefully that money benefits the new manager and helps the club bounce back up.

Essendon coach John Worsfold says the new-look Bombers deserve to be recognised as frontrunners for a return to the AFL finals.The Bombers have welcomed back ten players, including stars Jobe Watson and Dyson Heppell, from drug bans that kept them sidelined for all of the past season.Add to that this years No.1 draft pick Andy McGrath, a mercurial key forward with massive potential in Joe Daniher and a young midfield star coming off a breakout year in Zach Merrett, and Worsfold has plenty to smile about.Much of the preseason hype has centred on other top-eight hopefuls but Worsfold is confident the Bombers can bounce back strongly from their bottom-placed finish this year.(Finals) has to be realistic, Worsfold said on Tuesday.Were one of (ten) clubs that didnt play finals last year that want to play finals this year. We think we deserve as much recognition as one of the teams that want to challenge for that top eight as Collingwood, Richmond, Melbourne, Carlton or Fremantle.As an experienced hand at the helm of a Bombers side decimated by their long-running supplements saga, Worsfold faced little scrutiny when the team managed just three wins in 2016.That certainly wont be the case in Worsfolds second year at Essendon, and he wouldnt want it any other way.I love (pressure), Worsfold said.Id rather havve that than people saying ah well, youre going to be last again.dddddddddddd Thats not a good position to be in.The better your squad becomes, the more expectation there is, and as coaches, we should be thriving on that.A key priority for the Bombers over the offseason is improving their firepower.Essendon were dead last in scoring last season, averaging just 65.31 points per game, compared to Adelaides competition-leading 112.86.Worsfold is hoping the addition of James Stewart from Greater Western Sydney, the return of swingmen Cale Hooker and Michael Hurley and the continued development of Orazio Fantasia will give Daniher plenty of help.Its certainly an area we have to improve on. Weve struggled to kick scores over the last few years, Worsfold said.Theres been a massive amount of expectation on (Daniher) as a rookie but hes not a rookie anymore. Hes now developed to the point where we know how well he can impact and hes got that support around him now.Its okay having talent there (but) if you dont get it in there quick, it plays into the oppositions hands. We want to move the ball a lot more cleanly through the midfield and from the back half to get it inside 50 quick. ' ' '
