Tyler urges Hatters to cement a play-off place

On the back of their brave and battling display at York City on Saturday, the experienced Town stopper is in little doubt that the ‘bread and butter’ of the league remains their priority.

The 34-year-old keeper said: “We’ve got 13, 14 games in the league left and that’s the most important thing for us to do, cement our place in the play-offs.

“Don’t get me wrong, we still want to challenge for promotion, but Fleetwood have been magnificent this year.

“That’s (the league) our bread and butter. We want to have a good run-in and cement our place in the play-offs, that’s the most important thing at the moment.

“This (the FA Trophy) is a nice distraction, but the league points are the main thing.”

After such a tiring shift at the weekend, Tyler knows how important it will be for the Hatters to recover properly, saying: “We’ve got a good squad and will recover well and we will be all guns blazing Tuesday night.”

He’s hopeful a number of injured players will be in the frame to help the Hatters as Jake Howells and Keith Keane look set to be suspended following their dismissals at the weekend.

Tyler added: “They are only little niggles, they are not long term so hopefully we will have a few back Tuesday night.

“Young Jake (Woolley) and young Jerry (Nash) have come in as well and they have progressed through the youth team. We have a strong squad and the gaffer will have a difficult decision to make on Tuesday who to pick.”
