After removing the pot that the plant came out of, the plant will fit snugly in the hole.

I thought it would be difficult to do it but its actually so much easier eh ? and a lot less damage to the plant

Yes i find it easy. If the plant is a bit pot bound though it's best to just loosen a few roots to encourage them to grow out into the new compost. Best try and get them before they get pot bound, but they need to have filled the pot - that's the hardest bit, if there's a lot ready at the same time it can't always be done just right!
