Dartford manager Tony Burman is anxious for his side to stay clear of relegation trouble at the end of their first season in Blue Square Bet Premier.

A run to the FA Trophy semi-finals and high-profile wins against former Football League clubs have thrust the Darts into the headlines over the last seven months.

But safety in the top-flight of non-league football remains the ultimate goal for Burman, pictured, who is determined this memorable campaign should not peter out.

He said: "We’ve got to be positive. and want to get as many points as we can.

"We’re looking above us. You can look over your shoulder but I don’t want to be dragged into anything in the last five games.

"The players have put in a lot of effort this season and I don’t want that to fall by the wayside."

The Darts play in front of the live television cameras for the second time this season when title-chasing Wrexham visit Princes Park on Friday.

Lee Noble completes his four-game suspension this week and will miss the Wrexham game but should return on Tuesday for the visit of Braintree.
