“They played a five on Tuesday night for the first time and lost.

“But, as I’ve often said, anyone can beat anyone on their day in this division.

League Two is a grind, especially when tyou are playing Saturday-Tuesday-Saturday.

“We’ll prepare properly and concentrate on our own game.

“I’m not too worried about who we are playing, I’m more concerned about how we play, how we go about it.”
