Mark Yeates has claimed that the next two games for Notts County - both at home - will have a huge bearing on whether the club will survive in League Two or not.
The Magpies welcome Cheltenham Town to Meadow Lane at the weekend before hosting Exeter City on Tuesday evening.
With Kevin Nolan's side just a point above the bottom two and basement side Newport County having a game in hand which, if won right now, would put them above Notts, Yeates wants his new club to keep up the good work at home.
The former Leyton Orient manager has enjoyed an unbeaten start at Meadow Lane since taking over as Magpies boss, having drawn against Mansfield and beating Crawley.
"It goes right down to the wire with these things," Yeates told the Nottingham Post.
"We are hoping to get a good run of results and put a bit of breathing space between us and other clubs.
"It's only February and you don't want to be putting negatives or positives on anything at the moment.
"It has to be one game at a time. I know it sounds like a cliché but it has to be like that.
"But we've got two home games coming up which I think are going to be massive. If teams are going to win leagues or stay up, then they have to have a good home record."
