Ebbsfleet United v Halifax Town

ALTHOUGH injuries and suspensions have taken their toll on the Ebbsfleet United squad, manager Liam Daish is refusing to push the panic button ahead of their home clash against Halifax Town on Saturday.

He said: "I've always had a first team squad, not a first team and reserves. Everyone who has come in has done their bit."

Fleet go into the game on the back of a 1-0 win over Rushden & Diamonds and Daish is expecting a tough game.

He added: "They can beat anyone on their day. It will be a tough but the lads have realised that if we all do our jobs and work as a team then we can achieve."
