Looking forward to run-in

Graham Turner is looking forward to the rest of the season as the fixture list is not too intense.

Speaking to BBC Hereford and Worcester he said: "As it works out I think it is a fairly comfortable run-in in terms of the workload on the players. It looks as though it will be Saturday to Saturday with just the one Easter Monday game. So it is not a terrific workload in terms of pressure on the players.

"We have gone out of the cup competitions early so we have not got that backlog of fixtures. We can hope that we can keep our feet on the ground, players stay free of injuries or suspension, so that we now have a very good chance of reaching the top five."

Talking about his small squad of players Turner continued: "I left Steve Guinan out last Tuesday and left Rob Purdie in to play as three front players because we had seen Margate play and knew what they were about and hoped that would be enough to beat them and it worked quite well. I've got Steve to come back in, Danny Williams is free from suspension after Saturday, Matt Clarke in about three weeks. We've got a small squad but we have got quality in that small squad. Any of them are capable of going in and doing a job that is required. So there is competition for places over the next twelve games."
