After the cautious approach at Rochdale at the weekend, it was a bit more front-foot for United in midweek and it paid dividends as they ran out 3-2 winners over Scunthorpe, three points that could be vital in the battle for third place come the end of the season.

With that game out of the way, all focus now is on the trip south to face Forest Green Rovers - another fixture that could be pivotal in the attempts to avoid an extra game in the play-offs could the end of the campaign.

A tight-encounter at Spotland sees high-flying Rochdale come out the winners and keep their grip on top spot - for United, it looks like play-offs or bust this season with 16 games left to play.

We look back on the 1-0 defeat to Dale at the weekend, before previewing the huge midweek clash with Scunthorpe at Brunton Park, where third will face fourth in a battle that could go some way to earning a place directly into the play-off semi-finals come the end of the season.

A routine win for United at Brunton Park ahead of a tricky run of fixtures - and an even bigger positive, Charlie Wyke back on the pitch after almost 16 months out!

It was pretty straight forward for the Blues against Alty last weekend, but with Rochdale, Scunthorpe and Forest Green all coming up in the space of 8 days, are they ready to face a potentially season-defining week of fixtures? We look ahead to the first of those fixtures at Spotland this weekend.

Note - apologies, we had some technical issues early in the episode recording, but these should be ironed out now!
