Maidstone United boss George Elokobi says there is no room for complacency ahead of weekend away National League South game against Truro City

There will be no room for complacency from Maidstone’s players this weekend, insists boss George Elokobi.

The Stones will aim to make it eight wins from nine National League South matches as they face Truro City at Gloucester City’s ground on Saturday - and look to edge closer to securing home advantage in the play-offs in their final away fixture of the regular season.
