"I think there's been times when we've conceded goals at poor times in games and we've made hard work of it in terms of getting something out of games.

"We aren't having too many spells of domination at the minute."

When asked what his message to the Halifax fans would be, Senior said: "Stick with us, we're doing our best to put on performanc­es and ultimately get results.

"I honestly believe it will come good.

"We're just facing some adversity and we need to stand up to that.

"I'm tackling it with both hands and doing my best, as well as everyone else in the changing room, to rectify it as a collective, and I believe it will come good."

Senior admits confidence been knocked in the squad after their poor start.

"To a certain degree," he said.

"We're a team full of experience who have experience­d a lot of highs in football.

"We've got promotion winners here but that experience of when it's not going well for us, they can rally round people who haven't really been in these types of situations before.

"We're pulling together and just trying to keep going and rectify what's going wrong."

Town's Vanarama National League rivals Oldham Athletic have appointed former Everton and Sheffield United defender David Unsworth as their new manager on a three-year contract.

Unsworth replaces former Republic of Ireland, Leeds United and Sheffield Wednesday star John Sheridan, whose final game in charge of the Latics was their 3-2 win at home to Eastleigh, who Halifax face on Saturday afternoon.

Halifax's game at home to Oldham Athletic on Saturday October 29 will be shown live on BT Sport.

You can keep up with all the action from Town's visit to Eastleigh on Saturday with our FC Halifax Town reporter Tom Scargill's live blog on the Courier website, where there will also be an onthe-whistle match report and post-match reaction from Shaymen boss Chris Millington.
