Stevenage is waiting on the fitness of defender Luther James-Wildin as they prepare for their upcoming match against Bolton. The defender was forced off with a shoulder injury during the 3-0 defeat at Exeter over the weekend. Alex Revell, the manager, expressed concern over the injury, stating that it looks serious but they will have to wait and see. Revell also mentioned that Dan Sweeney didn't travel with the team due to the desire for more attacking options, but he has been training well. Stevenage has now gone six games without a victory, slipping to eighth in the table after a strong start to the campaign. Revell's side was out run and out fought by Exeter, which the manager described as unacceptable. The team's performance was poor, with goals coming from losing first contacts and rash decisions on the ball. Revell wants to see a response from his squad, especially with three successive home games coming up, starting with the Bolton clash. He emphasized the need for the team to stick together and realize what they are good at, which includes intensity, being aggressive, and playing forward. The manager also highlighted the importance of picking up first contacts and second balls, which was lacking in the Exeter match. Stevenage will look to regroup and ensure that the type of performance seen at Exeter isn't repeated. With Jasper Pattenden available, Revell has options to make changes to the lineup. The upcoming match against Bolton will be a test for Stevenage's resolve and ability to bounce back from a disappointing loss.
