“It is about managing expectations - that includes the players, the club, myself and the fans - we can’t get carried away,” he said.
“We always said we would see where we are at Christmas, that is going to be when teams can apply for promotion if they think they have a chance of getting it.

“The Notts County game will be a special night for the fans, but we just have to concentrate on the league.
“We put in a good performance on Saturday and hopefully we move on and keep the run going.”

Hide AdGraves knows any hopes of promotion will also rest on consistency - something he has worked hard to achieve after a few ups and downs at the start of the current campaign.
“There was inconsistency for lots of reasons at the start of the season,” added Graves.
“It wasn't ideal having the strike partnership broken up for nine games on the eve of the season.
“We knew we could play a lot better, we changed things a bit and it seems to have worked.
“There will be bumps in the road, you won't go all season without losing but it is how to your react.”
