No more second chances says Bexhill boss

Next up are two more away matches against second-bottom Saltdean United tomorrow (Saturday) and 10th-placed Steyning Town next weekend.
“We expect to take six points the next two weeks and if we win those two, we’re still in with a shout,” continued Munday. “It’s still close.”
Despite Saltdean’s lowly position, they’ve beaten Bexhill twice this season.

“Last week (when Bexhill lost 3-1 against second-placed Wick & Barnham United) most of them looked like they hadn’t played for five weeks, but we’ve got to go to Saltdean and perform.”
