Ebbsfleet United manager Dennis Kutrieb says he doesn’t fear for his job despite side in National League relegation zone with one win in 14 games

Ebbsfleet manager Dennis Kutrieb doesn’t feel his job is on the line despite their poor run of form.

The Fleet took just one point from home matches against Maidenhead and Oxford City this week, remaining in the National League relegation zone with just one win in 14 games.
