Crawley Town can 'do some damage' at Gillingham after Fleetwood win, says goal hero Forster
Crawley Town goal hero Harry Forster believes his side can ‘do some damage’ when they go to Gillingham next Saturday.
The midfielder scored what turned out to be the winner against Fleetwood Town at the Broadfield Stadium – and it was a win that moved Reds up to 19th in the League Two table.
Scott Lindsey’s men now face Peterborough United in the Vertu Trophy on Tuesday night before taking on Gillingham at the Priestfield Stadium in from of the Sky Sports cameras on Saturday (5.30pm kick off).
And this win and performance will give Crawley a lot of belief going forward and Forster says they will not rest on their laurels going into the next two games.
"Looking to Tuesday first, we're not going to take our foot off the gas one bit," he said. “This is a competition that we're very serious about and want to go far into it, so we'll definitely be no taking our foot off the gas there.
“And looking to Saturday, it's going to be a great opportunity for us, going to a Gillingham side who are doing well this season, but we're on a high now. We've got full belief that we can do some damage there.”
And it was a day where a lot of things went Crawley’s way including Fleetwood having a player sent off after 10 minutes and most other results going their way. And those days have been few and far between for the Reds this season
“We've been feeling it,” said Forster. “You never want to kind of blame luck or refereeing decisions or anything when you're at the bottom of the table. But it did kind of feel like nothing was going for us at the start of the season.
"But we've got to stay patient because we know the law of averages, that's going to even out over the course of the season and you like to think over the last couple of games, it has started to do that. We can't complain or moan about bad luck.”
