Workington Town coach Chris Thorman is desperate to strengthen his squad over the next two weeks.
Bottom of the Betfred Championship, after seven successive defeats, Town don’t have a game this weekend.
After Sunday’s latest defeat against York City Knights he said that improving the squad over the next two weeks has to happen.
He went on: “It’s a good thing having a week off and I I will be doing all I can to strengthen us, because we need to.
“There weren’t a lot of players available when we were looking to recruit and in many ways we went into the Championship with a League One squad.
“We have good players, and they showed for part of the York game they can be effective when they doi things well, but we are not consistent enough and that has to change.
Thorman thought his side had mismanaged the first-half to give themselves a lot to do.
“But at 26-18 going into the last 20 minutes we were right back into it and the game was there for the taking.
“Then what we did in the next 10 minutes cost us the game. We handed the momentum back to York.
“In the first 20 minutes of the second half we did a lot of good things and showed what a good team we can be. Unfortunately there are too many inconsistencies and it’s costing us.”
Like neighbours Whitehaven, Town are feeling it tough with injuries and they are set to meet net in the Championship at the LEL Arena on Easter Sunday (7pm).
