Tony Burman will not take Ryman League Premier Division basement boys Bognor lightly on Saturday as Dartford look to extend their huge gap at the top.

The Darts could be as many as 16 points clear with a game in hand after the visit of the rock-bottom side to Princes Park on Saturday.

Dartford boss Burman (pictured), who was named Ryman League Premier Division manager of the month for October, said: "As far as we are concerned we will show every team we come up against respect.

"Our main concern in this game, as in every game, is to increase our points tally and there are three points up for grabs on Saturday, so we won’t be taking it lightly."

Dartford will be without Adam Flanagan, who faces three games on the sidelines after his red card at Aveley on October 24, while Elliot Bradbrook will be out until Christmas with an ankle ligament injury.

There is better news, however, with the expected return to training of Rob Haworth, Danny Dafter, Lee Burns and Billy Burgess.
