ROYSTON manager Paul Attfield's eyes will be fixed firmly on Saturday's clash between Kentish Town and Hoddesdon, a game that could make a big difference to Royston's promotion hopes.
Attfield said: "It will be an interesting game, but all we can do is focus on our own games and look for maximum points.
"And if we can play with the energy and desire that we showed against Haringey, I would be confident of achieving that."
However, if The Crows are successful in seeing off Arlesey Athletic at home on Saturday, followed by away victories at Buckingham Athletic, Cranfield United, and Sun Postal Sports, will 70 points be enough for promotion?
"It's going to be extremely close," said Attfield.
"If I'm honest, I'm not sure if 70 points will be enough.
