BOSS Jan Molby will urge his Kidderminster Harriers players not to sit back at Leyton Orient on Saturday after their first victory of 2001.
Last weekend's 2-1 success over Barnet ended a run of eight games without a win.
But that will be put behind Harriers when they make the trip to Brisbane Road where promotion hopefuls Orient boast a fine record.
And Molby, who must rule out left-back Scott Stamps and forward Ian Foster with hamstring injuries, is not about to abandon his positive game plan.
He declared: "With their home record of 10 wins, three draws and one defeat, it'll be extremely tough but we'll try to fight fire with fire.
"It's not the right idea to sit back and let them come at us. We must give them problems.
"The players seem to be bouncing now and are looking forward to Saturday's game even though it's not the easiest place to go.
"They know they have ability throughout the team and feel if they can perform, they have a good chance."
Molby admits Harriers' 2-1 win over Orient in September was a little fortunate.
He said: "It was an excellent win. We have another opportunity for a double but so far that hasn't served us well. But after Barnet, anything can happen.
"Orient work very hard for themselves and have two strong central defenders in Smith and McGhee along with about the best sitting midfield player in the league in Andy Harris."
Stewart Hadley's hat-trick against Stourport Swifts on Tuesday has given Harriers' attacking options a boost.
Molby has moved to secure on-loan forward Drewe Broughton and midfielder Neil MacKenzie.
A £50,000 fee is set for Broughton and personal terms are being discussed after continued interest from other clubs.
Molby added: "Although they've both been part of a bad run, they seem happy.
"They feel there's a lot of quality in the squad and with additions in the summer, we can challenge.
"Everybody agrees Drewe has done enough to suggest he would play a big part in our future. The chairman's pleased with what he's seen - that's important.
"Neil's rewarded us with the ability we knew he had but people were not getting out of him. He's playing at the top of his game and I'd like to extend his stay."
