Mettam wants Steelmen to build momentum after breaking their win duck
Corby Town boss Leon Mettam is urging his players to build on their first win of the season.
The Steelmen broke their Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division duck in midweek when they saw off Bedworth United 2-1 at Steel Park.
It was a first win in six matches and saw Corby move out of the relegation zone, and it came after draws with AFC Rushden & Diamonds and Loughborough Students, meaning it is three games unbeaten.
And Mettam now wants his team to back it up when they host newly-promoted Coventry United on Saturday (ko 3pm) and try to maintain momentum.
"If we can build on the win, and then it builds again," Mettam told @chuckmiddleton.
"You add the two draws and it means the two draws we have got turn into really good draws.
"If you can then carry on and pick up two points a game between now and the end of the season then that's play-off form, but we are miles away from that and we know we are.
"We have lots of work to do, on and off the training ground, and we will just keep building slowly and trying to pick up results."
Lookin ahead to the weekend, Mettam added: "We don't know a huge deal about Coventry United.
"We watched the video from when they played Bedworth and they looked lively, but I thought Bedworth were lively on Wednesday as well, and you can see why they have had a good start in the league."
