Wilson has been manager of Eastbourne for 11 years

Eastbourne Borough boss Garry Wilson says his side are confident they can bounce back from a defeat at promotion chasing Rushden & Diamonds.

Borough are three points clear of the Blue Square Premier drop zone in 19th after the 2-0 defeat.

Wilson told BBC Sussex: "We're very positive. We didn't get too carried away when we beat Wrexham and we're not too downhearted to lose to Rushden.

"Things level themselves out, we've got sixteen games left now."

Eastbourne will try to bounce back against Luton on Saturday.

Wilson said: "If the players can't get themselves up for that we don't deserve to be in this division.

"We've got a massive game at home on Saturday and I feel that we'll be ready.

"We know it'll be a difficult game but it's one we're really looking forward to, that's why we want to be in this league. "
