Bexhill crash to heavy defeat

United were thumped by a four-goal margin for the second successive match but manager Len Watkins refused to condemn the backline as a whole. He said: "Four of the five were individual errors."

United got off to the worst possible start conceding two soft goals within the first 10 minutes, Stewart Small grabbing both.

United fought back and for 25 minutes played some of their best football of the season which resulted in Sam Rimmer reducing the arrears.

Two more goals from Small, either side of a Cooper effort completed an emphatic win for the visitors.
