When things are going against you a positive outlook is what you need, and if ever you need someone around to help raise spirits then come and meet Isaac Westendorf.

 The 24-year-old forward is a remarkable young man, unrelentingly positive and always looking to help those around him

 “  I've never been a captain or anything “ he told us “but I realised coming here, this is a young group and we need each other so I want to play a part in that. It’s good to bring my experience here and try to help people like Brayden  and Josh, um, Alfie” he laughs. “Well, no Alfie is a little older than those two but he’s really positive and good with the group too!

“It doesn’t matter what your job is just stay positive and and take every day as it comes because you can't really look too much ahead.”

 Isaac’s outlook comes from a devout faith

 “It’s thanks to my my Lord and Saviour  Jesus Christ” he says. “Obviously I'm a believer and it's just about me going to church every day, maybe reading a Bible and reminding myself that it's all about helping people. It helps me so much. I'm always happy and in a good place, because even  if it rains, eventually the sun will come through".

 That positivity is needed in football where one result can mean so much..

 “Exactly. Look, we are privileged to be footballers. It is a fantastic career, but it’s hard at times as well. Your belief gets you through that.

 “We had a run of games where we were playing well but not getting results. Thankfully that changed in the last two matches but it is so important to keep reminding yourself how good you are as players, because we know the quality of this squad. In  the first 5 games we played really well and maybe the results weren’t there. It's just about sticking together and it will turn for you".

 Is that something you have learned as you got older? Losing on a Saturday still hurts, right?

 “ I always give myself 24 hours to get over a defeat. Next day, always after any game I’m in the gym. I'm going to the church, I love books so I read and try to change my focus but that’s the same if we win: enjoy the moment but then that's the past and just focus on the next game.

 “We can take massive plusses from the last two games and the way we played . We can't take two steps forward then one step back, we’ve got to  keep going. That's the aim now.

 “We  need everyone this season, even if people are not playing,  not making the squad, everyone has a role to play in keeping everyone fighting because like I said, football changes  so quickly. Someone can get injured and if we need someone off the bench or to step into the squad then we need everyone.”

 You feed off the crowd as well. The crowd love you here…

 “Yes, I see the love and that is what we play the game for. The fans  push me so much, drive me to do well for them. The reason that I play is for those fans but also for the people who do so much: Phil the kitman, the staff behind the scenes. People working in reception, Jordan, Andy Ballard, The Gaffer: Everyone. It’s a fantastic club and those are the people we want to win for.”
