VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Ebbsfleet United manager Liam Daish told BBC Radio Kent:
"I'm really pleased with the three points and appreciative of the players' effort with one man down.
"We worked really hard, stayed bold and it paid off. It's come at a price, we had a lot of tired legs and players were running on empty in the end.
"I've got no argument for the sending off, it was a silly thing to do."
