Tuesday night, as an example, saw them equalise twice to gain a 2-2 draw at Blackburn Rovers.
Rewind a little more than 10 years and Fleetwood were meeting Chorley in the Northern Premier League.

“We got a point against a very good footballing side with a double figure budget.
“We tested their keeper more than they tested our keeper I’m very happy.

“I’m very happy with the lads. The younger players are learning what it means to get things over the line, to get points, to get one here is very well deserved.
“We are getting better. We are just at the beginning there is so much more potential in our players because there is a great willingness around the camp.
“You see what the character is in this team; unbelievable spirit.”
