Will Salmon spells out AFC Telford United's task

AFC Telford United defender Will Salmon today spelled out the task facing the players by insisting: "The future of the club is in our hands."

The 25-year-old right-back believes the Bucks have the infrastructure to go on and fight for promotion next year and that's why he believes it's imperative to beat the drop this time around.

He said: "As soon as you come here and have a look around the stadium, you are immediately impressed by the setup.

"I believe the club deserves a place in the Football League. The ground is lovely, the fans are brilliant and the gaffer is ambitious and wants the club to kick on.

"We know we have a responsibility to the club and the supporters to make sure we don't get relegated and we will strive to do everything we can to avoid that happening.

"But we don't just want to avoid the drop, we want to pick up as many points as possible in these last four games and finish as high as we can up the league."

Salmon only managed six games in the league this season before the start of March, but has only missed two games since.

The right-back is expected to keep his place for this weekend's trip to his former club Ebbsfleet United and is pleased to be playing regularly again.

He added: "Consistency is the key."
