This is Croydon

DICKSON Gill has blamed Croydon's 4-2 humbling at the hands of Banstead Athletic on his players becoming too complacent.

The Trams boss has given his side a rocket ahead of their important FA Vase clash at Combined Counties League Premier Division high-fliers Chertsey Town tomorrow, insisting they need improve to overturn their in-form hosts.

Gill, whose principle role is that of chairman, has restored some stability to the side, following a turbulent opening to the season that saw Mike Robbins sacked six weeks after taking the managerial reins.

Croydon went six games without defeat last month but have since lost their last two league games, and went down 4-1 in Wednesday's EL Records Cup game against Croydon Municipal.

Croydon will have to rely on Nigel Ikocodo for goals at Chertsey tomorrow with their other attacking options, Phil Page and Junior Gyimah both unavailable.

Page is cup-tied and Gyimah serves the last of a three-match suspension.
