BOSS Andy Liddle says his Cleethorpes Town team must stop leaking goals to remain contenders for promotion.
Last Saturday's 3-2 defeat at Worsbrough Bridge Athletic ended a five-game winning streak for the Owls in all competitions.
Despite conceding 31 goals in 16 league games, Liddle's Owls are fourth in the Baris Northern Counties East League Division One and chasing back-to-back promotions after winning the Lincolnshire League last season.
Tomorrow, the Owls host struggling Appleby Frodingham at the Bradley Community Stadium (3pm).
Liddle said: "We need to address the number of goals we are conceding.
"We should have got a point last Saturday, scoring two goals away. Leaking too many goals is becoming a pattern of our games. We have to score three goals in a game to get a result and that's a big ask at this level."
With new signing Lewis Buckthorp ready to make his debut, the Owls boss added: "We will be changing the team.
"It's up to the manager to address things after a defeat."
"I'm confident we can bounce back."
"Teams in this league seem to raise their game when they play us – they see us as a good scalp.
"We have got to be aware of that and make sure we raise ours when it matters."
