Happy Colchester United boss Phil Parkinson said his team must build on their fine start to the season - starting with a positive result from tomorrow's home game with Swindon Town.
But Parkinson also knows his defenders must overcome the threat of the Robins' giant twin strikeforce of ex-Chelsea man Sam Parkin and his former Reading clubmate Darius Henderson, on loan from Gillingham.
"The strength of Swindon's team is their big front two," said Parky.
"If we can deal with them we stand a good chance of winning."
Three more points would be the perfect pick-me-up for the U's boss following Monday's 2-1 defeat at Hartlepool.
But he is still happy to be among the Coca-Cola League One's top three as they enter a packed programme of six League and cup outings going into the second month.
