Ebbsfleet caretaker manager Josh Wright insisted he still sees his immediate future as a player. The popular 34-year-old midfielder was thrown into the deep end as he took charge of the Fleet a little over 24 hours after boss Danny Searle was sacked following a disastrous start to the season.

Under Wright’s guidance, the Fleet produced their best display so far despite being held to a goalless draw by Aldershot at Stonebridge Road. “I’m still a player,” insisted Wright. “Yes, I’m in my mid-30s and do I see myself going down this route?

One day, I think so. “I’ve got a passion for the game, I love the game, I love being involved and I love winning. “Right now, I’m contracted as a player, I’m captain and I love playing.

I feel that I’ve got a massive role to play in this team. That type of performance we saw against Aldershot, I want to be involved and at the centre of it. “Will I do another game?
