Smith looks for another win

Ben Smith, the Bulls' midfielder, says that nothing less than victory against Gravesend tomorrow will do if they are serious about winning the title or making the Conference play-offs this season.

Speaking to the Evening News, Smith said:"If we've got aspirations of being in the play-offs or even winning the title we have got to be looking at taking three points from these type of games.

"That's not being disrespectful to Gravesend, who will beat some good teams this season, and have been on a decent run of late but we should be looking to win most of our home games.

"If you look at Yeovil and Morecambe last year they only lost two or three games at home all season and that's what we need to do."

Smith was not unduly concerned with the Burton defeat last Friday and admitted it hadn't done them any harm.

"It's put a bit of realism into our situation because the more you win people think you are just going to keep on running and never lose," he continued.

"It was never a 4-1 because I think they had five shots to our 25 but teams are sitting back against us, inviting us to have possession and then trying to hit us on the counter attack.

"Gravesend will probably sit back and try to frustrate us but we've got enough quality and if the crowd is patient we should be okay."
