We Must Win!!

Lennie Lawrence in talking about the game against Huddersfield at Blundell Park tomorrow said "This game we must win it is a 'real six pointer' even this early in the season." This match is a challenge for both teams as winning this game could see them climbing out of the bottom three.

The Town boss said: "It's a very important game for both sides and I'm hoping that things go our way. It won't be easy because they seem to play better away from home - maybe there is less pressure or something on them because of their bad home form, but we need to get a result, so it's a vital match." The good news is that Wayne Burnett who came through a full 90 minutes for the reserves in midweek is also likely to be included for the first time this season and will look forward to playing against his old club. Raven and David Smith remain on the injury list.

All eyes however will be on new loan signing David Nielsen who will be playing if his international clearance arrives in time. It is expected to arrive at Blundell Park today.

Late News

Nielsen has been cleared to play. David Smith will figure in squad if he gets through training today.
