The Green Machine gave a solid enough display in a match they were never really expected to get much from.

Goals in each half from Russell and McKean were enough to secure the points.

Fortunately for Town their fellow relegation strugglers also had a bad day with St Francis crashing 8-0 against TSC, Uckfield losing 3-0 to Franklands Village and Lingfield being hammered 4-0 by Crowborough.

The match between Ansty Rangers and Hurstpierpoint ended in an 6-2 thrashing for the Hurst men.
