“Whereas with the spirit that we have in this group, I’d like to think we’re playing as good, if not the best stuff since I’ve been in the team.”
Fleetwood will be looking to climb the League One table this afternoon, hosting Charlton Athletic. Town currently sit 20th but their visitors are two places below.
Things can quickly change in the third tier, though, as there is very little between the sides.

He said: “It’s been exactly what I expected regarding the league. I knew it was going to be an open league. I think it will be like that all season.
“Obviously the teams that are up there, like Sunderland and Wigan Athletic, have money to spend for the best players.
“We’ve got a great squad and good belief in the group, which is probably the hardest thing to get. We seem to have the belief and spirit.
“The longer we have that, the better the results will be.

“Charlton are going to want to win the game. They’re going to need a reaction as are we, We want to get the win on the board.
“We’re at home and the last two games have been away,so we’ve not had a chance in front of a home crowd. We’re looking forward to putting in a performance for the fans and for ourselves.”
