Player-coach Sean Edwards is the only fitness worry as Burgess Hill attempt to reach the quarter finals of the FA Vase for the first time at Leylands Park tomorrow.

Blocking their path to the last eight are away specialists Porthleven, from near Falmouth in Cornwall.

Four of Portleven's five victories in the Vase have been away from home. The South-Western league side are second in their division and reached the quarter finals three years ago.

Edwards is unlikely to start after injurying knee ligaments in the 1-0 defeat against Eastbourne Borough in the Sussex Senior Cup last week.

Otherwise the Hillians' management team of Gary Croydon and Danny Bloor have a fully fit squad to chose from. Striker Steve Harper has recovered from concussion and midfielder Richard Carter is fit again after a a nagging calf injury.

Bloor said: "Sean is a fighter, if anyone can surprise us by getting fit it is him. He would be a big loss but we have a strong squad."

Hillians hope to beat their record attendance of 849, set when Clitheroe visited in the FA Vase fourth round three years ago. Town have distributed 450 free tickets to local schools.

The Fishermen, managed by Alan Carey, were making the seven-hour trip to Sussex today.

Carey said: "We won't be going there to shut up shop. They will come at us and that could suit us, it should be an open game."

Winger James Miller is doubtful with a hamstring injury, but 40-goal dangerman Lee Harvey starts. Harvey owns a gym in Plymouth and his clash with Hillians' rugged defender Daren Newman promises to be one highlight of a fascinating contest.
