They finished the season in seventh place and lost on the final day to Plymouth.

Hull were three points behind sixth place Norwich, who were also beaten on the final day of the campaign.

The 39-year-old was nominated for Championship manager of the season and has been in charge since November 2022.

Following the loss to Plymouth, Rosenior said: "It's a really disappointing day. It says a lot about the league that every single team that was battling against relegation won. It's a tough league.

"Plymouth gave so much energy into their performance – they ran, they chased, they tackled.

"We didn't come onto a good game in the first 20 minutes. Maybe we played the occasion a little bit rather than the game.

"There are tears in the dressing room from a few of the lads. Among the disappointment and the pain, I couldn't be prouder, not just of them but every single person connected with the football club.

"From where we've come from last season and what we've built, there's a real bedrock, a real foundation for us to go on and achieve in the long term for this football club."
