Notts County assistant manager Ryan Harley has said side show no signs of getting complacent following their excellent start to the National League season ahead of a game with Bromley.
Since joining the Magpies along with Luke Williams during the summer, Harley has taken the jump in to management after retiring from professional football following a 19-year-long career which included spells at Swansea City, Brighton and Milton Keynes Dons.
His first four months in the Notts dugout could not have gone much better, with his side picking up 15 points from their opening seven games which leaves them third in the table and just two points from the summit.

Bromely come into their trip to Notts on the back of a 2-1 win over Eastleigh, having lost 4-1 in their previous fixture away to Dagenham & Redbridge, who the Magpies comfortably beat last Saturday.
While that result may give Notts confidence that they can maintain their unbeaten start to the season, Harley explained that his side are well aware of the dangers Bromley possess and are solely focused on what they can do to get the three points.
"They have started the season well, obviously we have been watching them over the past couple of days," he said.
"They are only a couple of points behind us but they lost at Dagenham & Redbridge quite heavily which is quite rare, really.
"But we have watched them, they have some good players and are a dangerous team. They are always competitive in the National League, it will be a tough game but it's that old cliche in football, it is about what we do clearly, and it is about is again.
"There are no signs showing that they are going to step off it, they look forward to every game and enjoy playing together so I don't see that dropping any time soon."
During his time alongside Williams, eight players have come through the doors at Meadow Lane with four of those coming from National League North sides during the 2021/22 season.
Both Sam Austin and Geraldo Bajrami arrived from Kidderminster Harriers, while deadly duo Macaulay Langstaff and Cedwyn Scott joined from Gateshead and have hit the ground running, scoring 11 goals between them in the opening seven games of the season.
Despite only two players in Aden Baldwin and Brad Young, from Rotherham United and Leicester City respectively, joing from teams above the fifth tier, Harley said that the other players signed are adapting to life in a higher division well.
Speaking about the new signings, Hawley said: "I think all of them have done well, every day in training you see them growing.
"Obviously Macaulay is getting a lot of the plaudits at the moment because he is scoring at a very high rate, but they have all settled in very well.
"They are all very good to work with and brilliant guys to go with it."
