Nicky Forster believes Dover Athletic are chasing a Blue Square Bet South play-off place

Nicky Forster received a warm welcome from the Dover Athletic fans.

Nicky Forster thinks his Dover Athletic side are in a five-way fight for two places in the Blue Square Bet South play-offs.

After his side were held to a 1-1 draw at home by struggling Eastbourne Borough on Boxing Day to stay sixth, the Dover boss said he thinks the top three places are sewn-up leaving two spots up for grabs by the chasing pack.

He said: "There are leagues within our league. I think Woking will go on and win the title and Welling and Dartford are strong and have been up there for a while.

"We are chasing that fourth and fifth spot and there are four or five other teams in the same position.

"If we can get above that line and into the play-off places, then it has to be a successful season."

Dover have already played both games against Woking and Dartford this year, leaving them with single games against top-six rivals Welling, Chelmsford and Sutton before the end of the campaign.

Forster (pictured) said: "The games between those sides will be important between now and the end of the season. They are six-pointers, winning a game puts a big divide between you and the team you beat.

Whites will clash with Eastbourne for the second time in a week on Monday afternoon.
