WARRINGTON Town are not resting on their laurels while a promotion chance is in sight.
They have squad depth with a neat blend of experience and youth and they have lost only two of their last 12 games in North West Counties Division Two.
Manager Alan Blair said: "We can't afford to stand still.
"We are on a decent run and it is obvious that the side is coming together. Last week's result came without captain Andy Tague and striker Kevin Tyrrell is not far off a return.
"So the squad is getting stronger but we are looking to improve it further.
"There are three or four players we are hoping to sign in the next two to three weeks."
Blair, the NWC Division Two manager of the month for December, offered no names of his targets but having so many player options available to him is boosting competition for places and generating consistent performances from players when they manage to get a shirt.
Town are playing with confidence and Blair admitted his side fears no other in the division.
He said: "Going to Castleton on Saturday wll be tougher than the Oldham game last week but they've slipped up a little bit lately.
"We have said that no matter who we play in the league, and we've played those teams above us, there's no team on their day that is better than us.
"We've lost a couple of games but no-one's really given us a good hiding.
"Out of the games we've lost there's only two I think we should have lost.
"Squires Gate deserved their 2-0 victory over us but it was a strange day, just before Christmas, and a few lads, maybe, had been out the night before which didn't help.
"There was also Chadderton in the first game of the season when we lost 4-0 at home.
"There isn't a team in the league who is going to frighten us so we don't hold any fears about going to Castleton and gaining a result."
Another chink in the current success chain is the enthusiastic duo working with Blair.
His assistant, Dave Hughes, and coach, Derek Brownbill, are both former managers of Town with their hearts fully behind the Cantilever Park club.
Blair said: "It's working well with Dave and Derek. We are three different characters and we see different parts of the game.
"Obviously I make the final decisions and carry the can but it is nice to be able to turn to someone and ask their thoughts. It is hard to make decisions on your own."
