Hide AdBello has scored five goals in a five-match run which has brought four City victories.
They’ll aim to build on that with four home games in 11 days – starting against Horndean on Saturday and Herne Bay on Tuesday.
It’s a great chance for them to get used to their new 3G Oaklands Park pitch, which is getting positive early reviews.
Killpartrick said: “It was a great result at Sheppey from a good performance. It’s a process and we feel the players are executing the game plans well at present and adding their own bits to it as well, which is fantastic.

Killpartrick hailed Bello as a very ‘coachable and responsive’ young player and praised left-back Kyle O’Brien, who has come back into the side and done well.
The signings of Jammeh and centre-half Connor Cody – back from Whitehawk – have boosted Chi but Killpartrick said: “We’re still just preparing for one game at a time.”
