One win is all very well, but...
Their hard-earned home victory over Braintree last weekend was their seventh league win. But five of the previous six have been directly followed by a defeat, with the other coming before a draw.
Now boss Michael Birmingham and coach Darin Killpartrick are trying to drum into their squad the need to make it six points from two games.

But if they continue this season's trend and follow a triumph with a flop, the gap could be down to just five points again.
Birmingham said: "It's the theme of the week. As soon as we'd won on Saturday, we told the lads it meant nothing unless they got back-to-back wins for the first time this season.
"We will be getting that into them again at training tonight."

Hide AdBirmingham felt complacency could be one of the reasons for their failure so far this season to win back-to-back games.
"It was the same last season. We just couldn't win two league games in a row," he said.
"If you do, it takes the pressure off for the next game because you have got at least six points out of nine.
"But one win gets you nowhere if you don't build on it.
"We have to be fully focused '“ and not just on Saturday. When we were in a lower league, we might have been able to get away with starting preparation for a game on Saturday morning; now it has to start before that.

Birmingham praised the way the Bognor fans had stuck by the team in a difficult season.
"They have never turned against us," said Birmingham. "It's been a hard season at times for the supporters but they've always been there for us, and it is appreciated by all of us."
Maidenhead will present a tricky test on Saturday.
Six of their seven wins have been on the road and Birmingham has a lot of time for their boss Johnson Hippolyte, formerly at Yeading.
"The fact they've drawn twice with Lewes tells you they are very, very difficult to beat," he said.
