Caretaker Manager Matt Chatfield is looking for consistency in the final games of the season in the attempt to beat the drop. Speaking with the Grantham Journal on Friday "Our problem this season has been the lack of consistency. We have had a bit of bad luck and not winning at home has been our problem.

“Our away form has been very good but, not being able to win at home, has killed the buzz around us. The problem we have had this season is that we’ve used 60 or 70 players which hasn’t helped us get a settled side.

“We’ve got a couple of injuries and suspensions for this weekend but it gives other people the opportunity to step up now.

“We could dip in and bring a couple of players in but I don’t really see the point in it."

He added “We are in a precarious position but there’s still a chance and we have to make sure that we now galvanise the squad to try and get us through these games and get as many points as we can. We had a training session on Tuesday night and that was implemented into the lads that our priority is to get three points on Saturday.

“We can then assess what has happened after that and look at our next game against Nantwich on Tuesday.”

Last time out for Stalybridge they lost 3-0 at home to Warrington. The away trip for The Gingerbreads was a night to forget. Despite going in at half time 0-0, the home side ran out 5-0 winners. Johnson, Quansah, Bakkor and Burton x 2
