"A lot of credit to the chairman [Darragh MacAnthony]. He's backed me with everything I've asked for."
And Ferguson has revealed he will keep faith with the bulk of his squad next season, as Posh go for another promotion.
"We've got a group of young players who can go in from this. They've shown they've got the temperament and mentality and hopefully this will be start of something really good.
"I'll have to tinker with [my squad] a little but I've got a lot of good players in that dressing room. I know what they can give me.
"We've got a blend of youth and experience. I won't be bringing in four or five or six players, no chance."
