Scotland captain Ross Ford has insisted that the squad remain fully behind head coach Andy Robinson despite another defeat.
Following his side's 23-17 defeat to France at Murrayfield, Robinson has won just two games from 13 attempts in the Six Nations.
The result was Scotland's fifth straight Test defeat but, despite the poor run, Ford believes that the team remain close to realising their potential under the former England coach.
Ford said: "Andy's got belief in the players and we, as a team, believe in what we're trying to do.
"We're pretty tight together and we do believe we're on the right track and going in the right way."
Scotland led 10-0 and 13-7 during the game at Murrayfield and afterwards, Ford was focused on the positives.
He added: "We felt in control. We went out and played how we train. We let that accuracy drop before half time and it cost us.
"After that we came out and we knew we had to lift it. We did in parts. We showed today we're on the right track. We're scoring tries.
"We've got belief in the way we're playing, just with that bit of composure and being a little bit more clinical in certain areas we can get the results. If we can do that we can kick on from there."
Scotland have now lost to France in six consecutive championships.
