The performances have been improving, and if it wasn't for some very stupid individual errors we'd be mid-table.
The lads know they have the ability to get us to safety, and I'm sure we'll start picking up wins sooner rather than later.
To give a comparison, looking at the Championship, a couple of weeks ago I had friends who are Charlton fans convinced they were going to be relegated. Then all of a sudden they got a couple of wins on the bounce and they're mid-table.
Our last two games are against Southport and Alfreton, and many of the other sides we'll be playing may either have nothing to play for or resting players for the play-offs.
It's all in our hands. Stay positive.

I watched the Nuneaton v Kiddy game on Saturday (and will sadly never get those two hours of my life back) and I am assuming someone on our management team had the foresight to watch it as well?? From what I have heard about our last two away performances and, having watched the game at the weekend, there is absolutely nothing to fear on Saturday. Of course Daish will have them fired up as it is a huge game for them as well as us.
Two main observations
1. This is not a pitch to try and play total football on. Passing it ten yards looked difficult and there was also a strong wind to contend with. We might like to play out from the back but this is not the place to do it. We have quality on our team but we need to battle and do the basics properly first and then hope the quality will come through. Kiddy had no pace up front and I think we can trouble them there.
2. I think the commentator said they had not scored in six out of their last seven home games. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES DO WE GIFT THEM A GOAL/PENALTY/RED CARD (or all three knowing us) If they cut us to pieces or smash one in from 30 yards then fair play to them but we simply cannot give any more presents away.
If we can answer both those points positively then I see no reason why we can't get a good result.
