Patterson has masterminded an impressive recent run

Oxford United must look to start next season's campaign in the way they have finished this - according to their manager Darren Patterson.

The U's boss had his name sung by what he described as "an army of fans" at the team's final match of the season - a 3-1 win at Ebbsfleet.

"I don't care whose name is being sung as long as we are winning," he said.

"Whoever the players are, we have to look to start next season in the way we have finished."
