Boss Millington wants Town to learn lessons ahead of double header

-

"But then everyone else we play, the ability to go and earn the three points will be more in our own hands, so we'll be able to apply ourselves to the opposition, implement our style and try and make that the difference.

"So I'm not too concerned at this stage, there's going to be an awful lot of twist and turns, you saw Dorking beating Chesterfie­ld on Saturday.

"There'll be surprises, so called form teams who lose out to teams who are supposed to be struggling.

"The league's going to throw some difficult twists and turns at every team between now and the end of the season, but we've got to take our learnings, move on and apply all our energies to try and get three points in the next game."

On the upcoming home double-header, Millington said: "Looking forward to them. Boreham Wood is always a good battle, they're on a better run of form. They started the season in a sticky run of form but I know the amount of work that goes on behindthe-scenes by Luke and his team and they will present a serious test for us.

"But we'll look forward to trying to write a few wrongs we've experience­d at Bromley.

And then Oldham, local derby, they'll bring a big following and help create a great atmosphere at The Shay.

"So we'll look forward to that as well but we'll make sure we take our learnings out of Bromley and implement them going into Boreham Wood."

Millington says the Halifax fans have an important role to play over the next few days.

"They always do, I thought they were great again at Bromley," he said.

"They're behind the lads, I think they can see what they're trying to do.

"They acknowledg­e some of the challenges we face.

"We have a unique set of challenges when you look at our competitor­s in the tophalf of the table and I think the fans get that, they understand that and they're seeing a group of lads working really hard and trying to implement a style and a brand of football we believe can help them succeed.

"The fans were amazing at Dagenham, they were fantastic again at Bromley and I anticipate that'll carry on now until the end of the season.

"What we've got to do as a staff and a group of players is keep giving everything we possibly can to try and get three points."
