Brian Barry-Murphy spoke to the press ahead of our Easter Monday trip to Peterborough United, the first of seven remaining games in the 2025/26 Sky Bet League One season.
BBM:
"We played them in the FA Cup, and probably got an insight into the type of team they were starting to become." Brian began.
"They're a very good team; I think in the last fixtures of League One they were the youngest team in the whole of the EFL, and ourselves were second. You're going to see two very good teams, two very young teams, both going for the win. It should be a cracker.
"If we can win on Monday, we'll be in a brilliant position - that's our sole focus for now."
Brian and his squad will have enjoyed a 17-day gap between their previous fixture and our clash with the Posh, which has allowed for some valuable time on the training pitch.
The boss continued: “We've trained pretty intensely, and have benefitted a lot in terms of the amount of training time we've had with the players. It's been great for us to have that period.
“The nature of the league is that it's so intense and the fixtures come so quickly, that whenever you have a period where you can actually train without a game, it can feel as if it's a chance to refresh and focus on how we want to play.
“The players have been so good to put us in a position where we have such an exciting end to the season.
"Each game individually is different, and I definitely feel as if we've learnt a lot from the previous games. We've worked on a lot of things that are specific for us to be at our best, and now we have to go and show it."
