....even greater success this season.

City’s boss has been impressed with the manner in which his players have adapted to a higher level of football.

And speaking after the excellent 3-1 win at Harrogate Town on Saturday, he said: “We looked like a team that had learned a little bit from the previous seven games.

“If we pick up another three points on Tuesday that will be nine games, a fantastic start, and then we can go forward with confidence.” Striker Declan Benjamin has five goals to his credit already this season after netting a brace against Harrogate. And Ford believes the midfielder has responded well to being played in a new position this season.

He said: “I’ve been playing him on the left, coming in on his right foot and he got two tap-ins on Saturday. Good goalscorers get tap-ins.

“There are obviously still parts of his game that could be improved, but he’s very wholehearted, very honest and very strong.”
