Hide AdMartinez said: “I know the manager, Appleton worked with me at Blackpool.
“He is giving 100 per cent, everyone is giving 100 per cent for him.
“If they get confidence with the ball, they have talented players, quick players, young fellas, we have to make the game difficult for them.
“I want them to finish the game saying ‘wow we couldn’t do anything.’”

Hide AdMartinez is confident of not just stopping the visitors, but imposing Town’s will.
“We know exactly how we can play the game,” he said.
“I’m thinking about my team, not the other team.
“If we are 100 per cent and we concentrate, we are going to win the game.”
