Dorchester Town manager Tom Killick has warned his players about becoming complacent after two impressive home wins.
The Magpies inflicted the first defeat of the season to Southern League South Premier leaders AFC Totton at the weekend and had already recorded a dominant 4-0 over Frome the previous weekend.
Whilst Killick has been pleased with his sides improved form, the Magpies coach has warned his team about getting 'carried away' and that their league position is only 'adequate'.

He said: "We have to be careful not to get too carried away and the next game we will have to be weary of,
"In my experience you can be vulnerable and we will have to have no hangover or complacency.
"I am very pleased for the players and supporters have gotten pleasure from these wins but now we have to switch our focus."
The Magpies now find themselves in a much more respectable position of sixth in the table with 12 points and are just five points off FC Totton in first place, and Killick has been clear with his players he does not want to loose touch with the league's from runners.

He added: With the early results we had, after Winchester the Winchester game we knew we had to not let a big gap open up and get a good run together and we have done that.
"But if someone said this was the start we would have have, it's not amazing, but adequate, and now we need to build from now.
"Our league position is adequate, no more than that and there is lots more to do and we can't get above ourselves with one good result."
With Chertsey Town visiting the Avenue on Saturday afternoon, Killick has called for more consistency from his team now that they have put a good run together.
He said: "It's about having the consistent mentality and not being one of these teams that is good one week and bad the next week.
"We need to be better than that and the next game will be a good test of that.
