KIDDERMINSTER Harriers players are being told to 'stay positive' in their bid to avoid relegation from the Nationwide League Division Three.

Director of football Jan Mol-by's men have slumped to within a point of the dreaded drop zone after a depressing run of seven league matches without a win.

They were aiming to stop the rot this afternoon against Swansea City at Aggborough.

Molby and his assistant Gary Barnett adopted a different ploy this week by taking the players for a two-day training stint at the National Sports Centre at Lilleshall.

They are hoping the change of routine will help improve league fortunes which have nose-dived since December 28 - the last time they won.

Barnett said: "We have to bounce back and the only way to do that is by staying positive.

"It's no good sulking or moping in the position we are in."

Harriers main problem has been their shortage of goals.

Indeed, the last time a striker managed to find the net in a league game was on Boxing Day when John Williams pounced in a 2-1 away victory over Yeovil Town.

Last season Harriers were well served by Bo Henriksen who collected an impressive haul of 20 league goals.

He looked like repeating the medicine this term when his bagged a brace in his side's opening day 2-1 home win over Mansfield Town.

However, he has failed to score again in a injury-troubled campaign.

After today's clash against Swansea, who used to be managed by ex-Liverpool star Molby, Kidderminster will be preparing for their trip to take on Doncaster Rovers next Friday (7.45pm).
