Really looking forward to tonight’s game. Hopefully a good performance and 3 points. Feeling positive after Saturday so going 3-1 to the good guys with around 2500 in.

Same again get right into them from the off be aggressive and give them no space to turn, the players are now playing the way Murray wants so if we can continue we can win tonight, conditions windy so might have to be patient, Scunthorpe have just signed James Norwood and Dan Batty who both had good games on Saturday.

It’ll be a very tough game this our toughest at home so far for me. They’re a good team and won’t be where they are now at the end of the season. Norwood and Batty are two very good players at this level and they’ve got others. From tonight and Southend you’d have said 4 points would be a good return but having won away, the expectations now are to win again tonight. A draw wouldn’t be a disaster but be good to build on the last two performances.

Any word on crankshaw and Williams?

The wind, again, will probably make tonight a very scrappy affair, would take a draw followed by beating Wealdstone on Saturday right now

A scrappy affair it was not! I was surprised too, I didn't think the wind affected the game at all.

Seems AM has devised a plan to combat the wind
