"The result was" in the past couple of years Wizzair, Ryanair, Loganair, Wideroe and ASL that come immediately to mind. Plus easyJet also increased the size of their base. We're talking about new business they succeeded in attracting and only Loganair can be said at this stage to have been a failure, although the LDY route would still be running but for COVID.

There are plenty of things that can be usefully discussed concerning how difficult it will be to rebuild SEN's passenger numbers but suggesting the management failed to attract new carriers in the recent past is not one of them.
