Reds have now lost their last four games in a row and need to arrest their slide to make sure of maintaining Football League status next season.
They lie 21st in the table and take on 22nd-placed Yeovil on Saturday in what both teams will see as a must-win game.

Bulman, 40, reckons Reds are not far away from racking up a good victory.
He said: “It’s about getting into the right areas. Ollie Palmer’s doing this but it’s just not falling for him.
“A yard either side of the ‘keeper and we would win the game two or 3-0.

As Reds are just six points above the drop with five games left to play, Bulman can see how vital it will be to start collecting points.
He added: “You can throw all the good performances out the window as we need to pick up points.
“I feel pretty sure we’ll come back from Yeovil with some points in our pocket next Saturday.
“We feel positive we are going to get something after the last two performances.
“With hard work and a bit of luck we’ll come marching back.”
