I\u2019m so proud that we could deliver for him. We\u2019re a family. I want to thank the fans, not just for tonight, but for every week when they turn up and cheer us on. Hopefully we can use this as a platform now to kick on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sainty, who made his 250<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;appearance for Barry in the final, spoke about the loss of his father five weeks ago.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a clich\u00e9 but I know he\u2019s watching, I know he\u2019s looking down on us and he\u2019d be absolutely buzzing.

Once a club that dominated the Welsh domestic game, the Linnets fell to the brink of oblivion and nearly ceased to exist, but have risen from the ashes to establish themselves as a top-flight side once again. Now they have their hands back on a trophy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis club is unbelievable,\u201d Sainty said. \u201cThere\u2019s so many people who support us, they follow us everywhere. It\u2019s an amazing evening.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe know about the history of the club.

But it\u2019s one thing wanting to win and then going on to do it.
