Curle ready to make 'additions' in January to boost Cobblers' promotion bid

"We've improved but if we're being honest, there's still a long way to go and there's still more improvements to come," said Curle.
"That's not only in the changing room, on the field of play there's a level of improvement to come.
"Quality-wise we have improvements to make and there's still room to make additions to the football club that will add to our progression."

"The attitude in the changing room has massively changed and the attitude towards games and performances and training have also all changed," he added.
"We're on an upward curve and I think we've changed the mentality and the direction of the football club on the playing side.
"Off the pitch, I don't the club needed a change because it's run very, very well and I think people behind the scenes have a good understanding now of how myself, Colin (West) and the football staff work.
"How they've aided us and allowed us to work within our environment is credit to them."
