MIDFIELD man, Dwayne Mattis is delighted that the games are starting to come thick and fast again as we start a run of ten matches between now and the end of February with the visit of Norwich City on Tuesday evening.

"I'm happy to be out there playing again," he said. "There are so many matches coming up and we have to be ready for them.

"For the first 20 minutes against Brighton last weekend we looked rusty. We gave ourselves a mountain to climb and whilst we came back into it during the second half, it was too little too late.

"We have prepared well for Tuesday's game. Norwich are on a good run and have scored a lot of goals, but we did well at their place earlier in the season and should have won.

"It was one of our better performances of the season and if we can replicate that on Tuesday evening, it has all the makings of being an entertaining game.

"If we can start with the right tempo and really get our fans behind us, it should be a great atmosphere under the Banks's Stadium floodlights.

"The next month or so will really determine a lot and hopefully we can start with a positive result. It's a case of looking to get as many points on the board as we can. We have to worry about we do and continue to push for the play-offs.

"If we can win our two games in hand it will put us right back in the play-off mix."

Season-ticket holders are reminded that they need to produce Voucher 12 for Tuesday evening's game. If you have already handed the voucher in, it will be re-issued at Window 5 of the Banks's Stadium Ticket Office up until kick-off time on Tuesday.

The original Matchday Programme will also be re-issued.
