STANLEY boss John Coleman is hoping his side’s impressive home form can yield promotion from League Two.

The Reds entertain Cambridge United at the Wham Stadium tomorrow afternoon bidding for a sixth straight success on home soil.

Three points would cement their place in the automatic promotion places and set the Reds up for their remaining 12 games of the campaign.

Stanley have lost at home in the league just once since mid October and have taken 35 points from 16 games on their own patch.

And Coleman wants that to continue, and is keen for his side to develop a winning mentality as the season reaches the crux.

“If we can win our games we will be nearly over the line,” he said.

“Hopefully we will get a few more on the gate and that noise and atmosphere can lift the players even further.

“Winning at home does physiologically play a big part and it is a habit. You find a way to win when you get into that habit and you get into a rhythm. You take setbacks in your stride and we have got to be like that between now and the end of the season.

“We have been on a good run, but everyone keeps telling you that you are flying and you want to play it down.

You want people to say you’ve flown at the end of the season rather than that we are flying now.

“The minute you sit back and say we are doing well then that is when you set yourself up for a fall.

“We have got level headed people around the club and level-headed players and we know the business that we have to do and it is up to us to do it.”

In a congested table, tomorrow’s opponents Cambridge, down in 13th, can still harbour play-off aspirations and Coleman knows his side cannot afford to take their foot off the pedal.

He added: “I think you can go down to 14th, 15th place for teams who realistically think they have got a chance of getting promoted. We are just one of them.

“We have got ourselves into a situation now where we don’t want to let all our hard work go to waste by having a poor end to the season.

“Historically we finish the season well and we have got to continue that trend.”
