Boss looks ahead to local clash...
I'M EXPECTING a different game to the last time we played them a few weeks ago. I expect them to come out flying; their FA Cup defeat hurt them and they will be keen to make amends.They have a number of loan players available and go into the game on the back of a positive result in their last outing, so they will be raring to go against us.
There is also the added spice of it being a local derby, so it is a game that we face with real relish.
Looking back at last weekend's trip to Leyton Orient, I felt that we didn't do an awful lot wrong. We created chances and had the majority of the play, but in the end, it just wasn't to be.
We have to concentrate on what we're doing and control what we do. This is a really tough League with a lot of tactically-aware teams who made life difficult and we have to be able to come up with answers.
We've made a massive progression over the past 12 months. We're competitive in every game that we play in and look to do the right things each time we step onto the pitch.
We've certainly given ourselves a base and we'll keep fighting for points and playing the way we want to play.
