Liverpool loanee Morgan Boyes will stay calm in the Fleetwood 'wind machine'
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
The teenager, who joined Joey Barton's side on a season-long loan from Liverpool on Wednesday, has experience of the strong coastal gusts which can affect games at Fleetwood's home, likening it to a "wind machine".
In addition to playing two cup-ties for the Reds' senior side last year, Boyes twice played for their Under-21s against EFL opposition in the Leasing.com Trophy.

“The wind machine was on that day, of course! That will be a factor in our games. I’ll have to get used to that and it should be all right."
However, blustery the conditions, Boyes insists that calmness is key to his character on the field.
He added: “I’d like to say I’m a calm, composed defender, who likes to play out from the back and wants to help out the team in any way possible.

And what matters most to the Wales Under-19 international is playing as many matches as possible.
Boyes said: "I got the taste of it with a couple of games for Liverpool and it made me want to knuckle down and get as many games as possible.
“It’s all about my development and getting as many games under my belt in a real men’s league."
