Bucks' form will improve - Cowan

Gavin Cowan
Cowan believes sixth-placed Telford can improve

AFC Telford United defender Gavin Cowan has urged the club's supporters to stick with the team.

Telford, who travel to Gateshead on Saturday, are sixth in the Blue Square North after a disappointing 0-0 draw with Fleetwood Town last weekend.

But Cowan told BBC Radio Shropshire: "Stick with us, I'm sure it will come good and we'll push on.

"[Manager] Rob Smith has told us to start playing for ourselves, the management and the fans."

Telford held a clear-the-air meeting on Tuesday to work out why their form has been inconsistent and Cowan believes they can do better.

"In reality we're sixth in the table and five points off the top but is that good enough for Telford? Probably not," he added.

Telford make the long trip to the North East this weekend without defender Simon Forsdick, who is still suffering from a knee injury.
