Bostwick said: “This club feels like home for me. I love the place and I hope I can carry on here.

“It’s been a very frustrating season. We were there or thereabouts before Christmas, and we got close at times in the new year, but we couldn’t quite get the results we needed when we needed them. We can’t dwell on it. We need to learn, pick ourselves up and go again next season.

“We have a lot to do, but the manager works tirelessly every day and it’s up to us to deliver the performances.

“We are where we are in the league for a reason.”

Bostwick is about to enter the final year of his Posh contract.
