Age is just a number for Dover defender Tyrone Sterling. The Grenada international is much older than boss Mitch Brundle - but that doesn’t bother him.

He said: “I’ve known him for a while and, obviously, we’ve played here together as well. “He’s a good guy and he’s confident.

He wants us to believe in what he’s doing - and we all do. Age is nothing, as long as he’s got a plan and he knows what he wants to do.

We’ll stick by him. “Everyone can learn from everyone, I think, and it’s important that we just back him.” Brundle, 28, hasn’t taken to the field since he replaced Andy Hessenthaler as manager of the National League South outfit last month - but did play alongside Sterling while he was player-assistant manager earlier in the season. “It’s a tough one, I’ll be honest,” replied Sterling when asked if he viewed Brundle more as his manager or as a team-mate. “Because we’ve played with him for half the season and he’s now in that role, it’s difficult.
