Manager Neil Cugley is challenging his Folkestone Invicta side to win their last three games of the season to stand a chance of reaching the Ryman League, Division 1 South play-offs.

Invicta face Horsham at Cheriton Road on Saturday, and travel to fellow Sussex strugglers Three Bridges the following week, before ending the season at home to Herne Bay.

Ramsgate, Faversham Town, Invicta and inconsistent Leatherhead are all chasing the last play-off spot.

The latter represent the biggest danger with games in hand on all their rivals but Cugley (pictured) said: "I think we need 71 points to make it (the play-offs). We will give it a go and have nothing to lose.

“If you had told me we would be in this position at Christmas, I would have snapped your hand off.”

Josh Burchell (hamstring) and Josh Vincent (foot) are expected to be fit to face Horsham, while young striker Johan Ter Horst is also available after family commitments.
