GARY Roberts is confident Accrington Stanley can turn their season around.

The Reds have not won a league game since Roberts earned a three-month loan deal with Ipswich in mid-October.

But the 22-year-old has every faith that manager John Coleman can inspire a recovery.

"Accrington is always the first result I look out for.

"Whatever happens it always will be," said Roberts, who is expected to make his move to Portman Road permanent when the January transfer window opens, for a fee believed to be in the region of £220,000, despite interest from other clubs.

"Maybe when the transfer goes through I think they will have a couple of quid to spend. And the gaffer has got enough in his locker to turn it around.

"They are used to winning, so they should be all right.

"And the team spirit they have there is different class.

"That got us through some games last season, like Tamworth away.

"We really stuck together and I miss that side of it. I miss the lads."
