LEE CLARK cast his eye over the latest League I table then told his players: Dont have any regrets between now and the end of the season.

Towns comprehensive defeat of Notts County strengthened their grip on the second automatic promotion spot behind leaders Brighton.

Third-placed Peterborough are four points behind with a game in hand while fourth-placed Southampton are five behind with three games in hand.

But Clarks chief concern is his own side, who have created a new club record by going 18 league games unbeaten in the same season.

With seven to go, the boss said: Lets treat each one like a cup final and try to win each one.

If we do that and still dont achieve automatic promotion, then we cant have any regrets because we will know we gave it a really good go.

Of the Sky-televised victory over Notts which replicated Towns opening-day win down at Meadow Lane, Clark said: We produced the whole package.

We had a good tempo from the outset and we pressurised them when we didnt have the ball, forcing them into making mistakes.

Our two widemen (Gary Roberts and Danny Ward) were fantastic and our strikers unselfish.

We could have scored six or seven and while I like flowing football, I like clean sheets as well, and thats four on the bounce.

The defence has been outstanding of late, and while I brought in a very good centre-back on loan last week (Readings Sean Morrison) and have Antony Kay fit again (after an ankle injury), how could I leave either of the existing players out after the previous performances?

But we have quality throughout the squad, and if any player slips up, we have someone waiting to come in.

Its been a good week because our rivals slipped up and we did our job, but we know we cant afford to take our foot off the gas, because Tranmere away on Saturday will be tough.
