BOSS Phil Mullen expects his Evesham United side to hit the heights in the Dr Martens Western Division but not until March at the earliest.
The Robins have suffered a disappointing month including the loss of six points due to Bloxwich Town's withdrawal but Mullen insists there is plenty to play for starting with tomorrow's visit to Bilston Town (3pm).
Evesham beat them 3-1 at Common Road only last week and victory could propel them back into the top six.
"It's an opportunity for a quick double and to get back on track," said Mullen.
"The first game was quite open but we had a good game for once and things are looking quite positive and we have to take that form into the New Year.
"We are in a false position at the moment because of the points deduction but the hardest thing at the moment is to get this team to realise its potential and put that into results. I would expect us to finish high in the table but we need to get our act together and put a run together.
"There are a lot of games to make up and I don't expect us to catch up until March but when that comes around we should have more of an idea of how we are doing."
Mullen has a full squad to choose from including Phil Preedy and Mark Wolsey who both hit the net against Bilston.
