Dover Athletic manager Jake Leberl reacts to 1-0 National League South win over Slough Town at Crabble

Boss Jake Leberl enjoyed a much-needed Dover win on Saturday - and now wants more of the same.

Struggling Whites completed a National League South double over Slough at Crabble with striker George Nikaj scoring - but also being sent off - in a dramatic final 10 minutes of their 1-0 win.

It was just a third league victory this campaign for Dover, which moved them off the bottom of the table on goal difference ahead of Havant & Waterlooville. They had been 2-1 victors at Arbour Park in August.

Leberl said: “It’s a really nice feeling - and I want more of it, to be honest!

“The boys put a heck of a shift in and I’m really pleased with it all.

“The clean sheet, the effort, the organisation and the spirit, that was all spot-on today and we got our just rewards.”

Whites have lost half of their 30 league games this term but rarely have been outplayed, often beaten by a single goal.

“That’s what I have said all along, since I’ve been here, I know we have been down there, but it doesn’t feel like a bottom-of-the-league dressing room,” added Leberl. “The boys have been putting in shifts ever since the day I walked in.

“For whatever reason - maybe a bit of unluckiness, maybe a lack of organisation and a little bit of a lack of confidence - (things haven’t been going Dover’s way).

“But, today, everything seemed to come together and I’m really pleased for everyone at the club for us to get a win and three points.”

Nikaj calmly slotted past Slough goalkeeper Dan Lincoln - who has also played cricket for Kent - on the turn for the game’s only goal on 84 minutes.

Leberl noted: “George has got that.

“He has absolute bags of ability. I think, if we keep working with him, he’s only going to get better and
