Ebbsfleet midfielder Craig Tanner admits their players need to “look in the mirror” and turn their season around. The Fleet have won just once in 10 National League games this season, although they can climb off the foot of the table with victory at Maidenhead tonight (Tuesday).

The club have already acted by bringing in new boss Harry Watling to replace Danny Searle and Tanner revealed the players have held their own meeting in a bid to improve their fortunes. “We had a good chat among the players and said we need to sort this out, it can’t all be on the management,” explained Tanner. “When you get on the pitch it’s 11 versus 11.

It’s on us. “It was a little bit of everything. You can’t just pin it down on one thing. “There’s some games where a decision doesn’t go your way, or you miss a chance, or you make a mistake.

I held my hands up, I made a mistake against Woking. I came in and apologised and when everyone was making mistakes that breeds a little bit of anxiety or not being confident in your own game. “Little bits all chip away and you lose your one, two or three per cents.
