HEYBRIDGE SWIFTS are looking over their shoulder again to avoiding relegation.

Their two-goal defeat by Ramsgate on Saturday has left Swifts with a worry or two again, following three magnificent results which saw them looking upwards at a possible Ryman League, premier division promotion play-off berth.

Boss Brian Statham insisted only one thing will be on his mind from now until the end of the season and he said: "It is important that we retain our premier division status.

"I'm looking no further than that.

"It's nice that the players can have a sneak view at making the play-offs and I'm sure most of them believe they could do well playing in a higher division.

"But with the injuries and other problems I've had at the club this season, my priority is, and always has been, to maintain our premier division status."
