Boro spirits are up - Greenwood.

Eastbourne Borough assistant boss Nick Greenwood says Tuesday's 2-1 win over Gateshead is the start of their bid to avoid Blue Square Premier relegation.Boro face crucial matches against fellow strugglers Forest Green on Saturday and Ebbsfleet two days later.

He told BBC Sussex: "There's that feeling in the changing room that it's the first step on a difficult week.

"We've got to take it on for the first time this season and win back to back games. That's now the next challenge."

The win over Gateshead ended a run of five games without a victory for Eastbourne.

Greenwood added: "It was getting to the last chance saloon. It's not easy for the players to know they've got to go out and win a game.

"The question is 'Can we do this again on Saturday against Forest Green?'"
