Carlton ready to take the game to runaway leaders Coalville

CARLTON Town boss Les McJannet has promised his side will take the game to Coalville Town when they entertain the runaway leaders tomorrow.

The Millers went down 5-1 at Coalville earlier in the campaign but are currently seventh in the table.

But their opponents have been in rampant form and are 15 points clear at the top, having scored 89 goals already in their 28 league matches.

Their opponents were held 1-1 at Kidsgrove in midweek and McJannet sees no reason why his side can't inflict just a third defeat of the campaign on the Evo-Stik Division One South leaders.

He said: "We will play with the same shape and try to take the game to them. Against a team like that, you can't sit back and hope.

"You have to act, get forward and keep it tight at the back and to be fair, we always look to stay solid at the back.

"They drew in midweek and can't keep scoring like they do in every game.

"We lost 5-1 down there but that was not a true reflection on the balance of play and we go into the game confident."

The Millers welcome back Ian Brown tomorrow, after he missed last week's 3-2 home defeat to Stamford.

Nick Hall (knee) and Lee McAnulty (hamstring) will be missing tomorrow but McJannet felt the scoreline last Saturday was unjust on his side.

He said: "We were a little bit disappointed with a few of the decisions that went against us last week.

"We had a blatant penalty turned down early on and our lad was booked for diving, which was astonishing.

"Then in the second half, our player goes clean through and is brought down by the last man and although we won a penalty, their player only got a yellow card.

"I don't like seeing players sent off but those are the rules of the game and he should have seen red which it makes it a different game.

"But you could not fault the performance or the attitude of my lads, that was superb."

Meanwhile, bottom side Hucknall Town will be looking to bounce back from a 10-0 drubbing away at Northwich Victoria on Wednesday night.

They entertain Lincoln United tomorrow, themselves struggling in 19th place.
