Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Milton Keynes Dons.Looking at the earlier recent performances of Fleetwood Town when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 7 matches with the visitors losing 4 times, drawing 2 and winning 1 game.
Take note! Both sides have scored in 9 of this club's last 11 league games.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Fleetwood Town manager Brown as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Shrewsbury Town.
