We have to look at 10-day break as a positive, says Crawley Town boss
Scott Lindsey said his side have to look at their 10-day break as a positive as they get back into action this week.
Reds are due to play at Bromley on Tuesday before they welcome Oldham Athletic to the Broadfield on Saturday.
They had a free weekend because of their FA Cup exit in November and now they will be looking to get back to winning way following the defeat to Salford last time round.
"We have to look at it as a positive, because that's what it is,” said Lindsey. “We don't want to look at it as a negative. Straight after the Salford game, would we have preferred to play straight away? Maybe, yes. But on reflection, a little bit of time away from the club, from one another, was a good thing. And then we've prepared the team as normal to play on Tuesday night so we feel refreshed. We feel ready to go again.”
At Salford, Lindsey’s men were leading 3-2 with seven minutes to go but lost 4-3. “We thought that we were excellent in the game and it was so frustrating to watch back because you know what the outcome is when you're watching it and you think, how did it come to that? But we've got to learn from that, we've got to improve from that. And when we get ourselves in that position again, that can't happen again.” SussexWorld.co.uk
