Bishop’s Stortford are remaining positive as they aim to end their five-game National 1 losing streak at home to Sheffield on Saturday (November 14).

Head coach Tom Coleman saw his side produce a spirited performance when going down 66-35 at Camborne at the weekend.

They played with 14 men for much of the contest in Cornwall following a first-half red card to Austin Pope.

And Stortford have the chance to stop the rot when they welcome the second-from-bottom side to Silver Leys.

“[Camborne] are a very good side, big and physical, with a big, partisan crowd which makes it a difficult place to play,” said Coleman, whose team are ninth.

“We did plenty of good things, but we struggled to get a foothold in the game.

“We’re in a period at the moment where we can’t get away from making mistakes, and they hurt you. We’ve got to find a way of getting away from that and getting back on the winning trail.

“We always try to get the players into a positive mindset. You have to believe that the next win is coming in the next game.”
