Yeovil Town will only target an automatic promotion spot once they have at least booked an npower League One play-off place.
A 2-1 victory over Shrewsbury Town at Huish Park on Saturday fired the Glovers back to to third, leaving them needing two wins from their remaining four games to seal a top six finish.
However, manager Gary Johnson is refusing to get carried away with his team's recent resurgence and currently has one goal in his sights.
"People obviously expect us to win, which is a different pressure," he said. "I can handle it, it's just getting that back to the players. I know Terry (Skiverton) and Darren (Way) can handle it as well as they've been there before.
"At this level being third and still chasing the top two we have got to be careful what we do and say to everybody.
"We're hanging on in there. We know if we've got four games left and win there's three games, then two and then one. If you can keep winning your next game it makes it even more fun at the end of the season.
"At the moment we are pleased that we are consolidating our position. It's not done yet but we are looking strong for that (play-offs) and then we will chase the stars as and when we get to it."
James Hayter's penalty and Paddy Madden's long range struck shrunk the Shrews in a game where QPR loanee Angelo Balanta again grew in stature.
Johnson said: "We had been chipping away at him with the ability he has got to get more from him. The penny has got to drop for him.
"He's a Premier League player as far as his ability is concerned but we have got to up that work rate.
"He will be back in the Premier League if he has got that work rate (he showed against Shrewsbury) every week."YEOVIL TOWN 2-1 SHREWSBURY TOWN - IN PICTURESPhotos: Yeovil Town 2-1 Shrewsbury Town - match actionPhotos: Yeovil Town 2-1 Shrewsbury Town - crowd pictures
