We've got Burton in a tough game on Saturday in the FA Cup and both teams know what’s at stake.
There could be a big prize awaiting the winners so it should be a great game.
I’ve played Burton a few times in my career and have a decent record against them.
They’ll try and play but will know how to battle as well. We’ll have to match them on both fronts if we want to make it into the hat with the big boys.
This week we’ve had two close games – one went for us and one against.
There wasn’t too much to choose between the sides in our game at Bristol Rovers. The terrible weather conditions made it difficult for both teams.
At this time of year there are going to be plenty of games like that. It’s important we roll our sleeves up and fight for as many points as possible. We did that on Saturday and were unfortunate not to pick up a point, which would have been a great result, especially when you consider Rovers are just outside the play-offs.
They edged ahead early on but we answered back before half-time from another Barchy goal. Unfortunately we conceded a penalty late on and couldn’t force the equaliser. We were down after the game but had to pick ourselves up and get ready for Yeovil.
We started Tuesday’s game brightly and took the lead though Jacko’s penalty after Fab was brought down again. Opponents have given up trying to tackle him and have decided fouling him is the only way to stop him! Considering Jacko has missed his last two penalties, his spot-kick was outstanding. He showed his confidence, though, by dinking it into the roof of the net.
We had other chances to kill the game and didn’t take them. After that period of dominance, the game settled down and was fairly even, although Baz was unlucky to see their keeper tip his free-kick onto the post. We managed to remain solid and get the win we deserved.
Finally, I need to expose Fab and our physio Willo for their failure to sing on their first away trip.
Matty Fry set a hard act to follow with a brutal rendition of Sex On Fire by The Kings Of Leon and Fab was panicked. He began trawling through Joshy’s iPod but couldn’t find anything suitable while Willo just got a brighter shade of red until we decided to save them up for the next trip.
