York City run in not too tough for Daniel Parslow

York City defender Daniel Parslow believes they have a good chance of reaching the Blue Square Bet Premier play-offs despite a tough run in.

But they face leaders Crawley twice, third placed Luton and eight-placed Newport before the end of the season.

"Our next four games are all at home. Our home form has been magnificent recently," he told BBC Radio York.

"We need to worry about our games and if we worry about what we can do and have control of, we'll be all right."

York must win on Tuesday against Crawley, who could win the league if they are victorious, to keep up the pressure on promotion play-off rivals Wrexham, Kidderminster and Fleetwood.

Parslow felt seventh-placed York were unlucky not to win at Kettering on Saturday after they enjoyed the lion's share of chances on goal.

We've got some really tough fixtures so we've got to prepare right for every one of them

The Minstermen had to settle for a 1-1 draw after Michael Rankine missed a late penalty, and five minutes into stoppage time Chris Smith's header hit the bar and Parslow saw his shot cleared off the line.

"It just wouldn't come down for me, it was hanging and hanging. I was just happy to get contact on it and I thought I'd done enough, but the lad cleared it off the line. That summed up our day.

"We all know we should have won that game but the gaffer [Gary Mills] has said we need to keep our heads up for a massive game on Tuesday.

"You can't dwell on anything, games come round so fast, so we'll take the positives out of it."

In addition to Crawley at home, York have to go there on the last day of the season, and have Luton to play at Bootham Crescent.

"They're all tough games, we've got some really tough fixtures so we've got to prepare right for every one of them," Parslow added.

York have two new injury worries for Crawley. Ashley Chambers pulled his hamstring early on at Kettering, while Scott Kerr missed the game after suffering back spasms.
