Dan Ellis Club Secretary Last weekends Round up in the Isthmian leagues By Ian Townsend AFC Sudbury changed their entire management team earlier this week, apart from one-manager Mark Morsley. The Yellows surely took confidence from becoming the first side to take anything from Maldon & Tiptree this season, drawing with them in midweek before winning the Velocity Trophy penalty shootout- and they took that performance into the FA Trophy and slayed a giant. Harrow Borough are in fifteenth place in Southern Premier South at present, but had gone a month without victory, losing four of their last five matches- and by full time that record read five out of six, as second half goals from Billy Holland and Sean Marks dumped them out. Aveley and Bowers & Pitsea needed no introduction before their tie at Parkside, but the visitors have been on a miserable run of late and that continued as the Millers struck three times, all in the first half, to dump Rob Small’s side out of the competition. Alex Akrofi, Jason Raad and an own goal did the damage- which was worse than it sounds given the home side played the majority of the match with ten men. Basildon United were out next giant killers. The Bees hosted Chesham United, in third place in the Southern Premier South Division and undefeated in three matches- but the visitors couldn’t make it four as two goals right at the end saw them depart the competition after an eight goal thriller! There was only one goal in the first half, and that went to the visitors, but goals in the first ten minutes of the second half saw Basildon turn the game around, Ayo Odukoya and Ernest Okoh finding the net. Adam Vyse made it three-one, and then the visitors scored two to draw the match level with only six minutes to go. That was the signal for Basildon to show their class, and Odukoya, two minutes from time, and Harry Norman a minute later, sealed a famous victory. Cambridge City kicked off on Friday night against Needham Market, and fell to a three-nil defeat. We had a Surrey v Essex clash on the High Road as Chipstead took on Canvey Island- and we’ll have another in midweek as they’ll need to do it again after a pulsating three-all draw. Both sides will be wondering how they didn’t win. The Chips took a two goal lead shortly before and just after the break, Kyen Nicholas and Tom Collins finding the Gulls net, but as we headed towards full time Canvey suddenly found form, Tobi Joseph and then a Jason Hallett double, the last of those four minutes from the end. Tom Collins managed an equaliser for Chipstead in the eighty-eighth minute. Heybridge Swifts, fourth in the North Division, welcomed Premier Division Potters Bar Town. The Scholars departed the FA Cup in midweek at the hands of National League Barnet, but prior to that hadn’t been defeated since August 24th- more than two months ago- and got straight back to winning ways in Essex, Ben Ward-Cochrane and Josh Hutchinson continuing their fine form in front of goal and earning their side victory despiteAlex Teniola scoring for Swifts. We had another all-Isthmian clash at Park Drive, as Maldon & Tiptree- who failed to win in midweek, the first time that had happened all season- hosted Premier Division Cray Wanderers. Wands had played their last three matches away from home and picked up seven points, so certainly wouldn’t have been overawed by the growing reputation of their opposition- but they did find themselves overrun on the field, as a Danny Parish double and a third from Jorome Slew saw the Jammers slay another giant and win once more. Back to League action now, and Bury Town consolidated their place at the top of the North Division with a three-one win over rejuvenated Romford. The Ram Meadow faithful saw their side extend their lead to five points, Joe White, Jake Chambers-Shaw and Max Maughn scoring Town’s goals, Inesh Sumithran finding the net for Boro. Grays Athletic could leapfrog Maldon & Tiptree into second place if they defeat Dereham Town at home this afternoon (1400 kick off at Parkside), but it’s worth remembering that the Jammers will have four matches in hand. Histon are up to eighth, defeating Hullbridge Sports two-one at the Glassworld Stadium despite playing the last thirty five minutes with ten men. Simon Swinton had just put the home side ahead before their goalkeeper, Sam Roach, got his marching orders- but the ten men increased their lead shortly afterwards through Ed Rolph. Joseph Wright made the last twenty minutes interesting by halving the arrears. Great Wakering Rovers could gave gone second with victory at Brentwood Town, but ended the day fifth after a two-two draw. Abdus Salami gave the hosts a first half lead, but two goals from Josh Wiggins just after the break put Rovers in the driving seat- and they were but moments from that second place when Michael Toner scored from the spot to earn Town a point. Witham Town are up to thirteenth, a double from George Bugg and a goal from Marcus Bowers enough to give them a three-one win over Felixstowe and Walton United, for whom Miles Powell got a late consolation. Into the South Central Division, and Harlow Town came from behind to seal a late, late win at Chalfont St Peter- and went top of the table as a result. An own goal and a goal from Luke Illsley sent the Saints in ahead at the break despite Terrell Egbri scoring for Hawks, but after the interval Egbri got another to equalise- and deep into added time Miles Mitchell-Nelson got a winner for the visitors. Ashford Town got their first League victory of the season at Hertford Town, and they scored five goals in the process. Kelvin Adjei got two of them, Daniel Brown two more, and Tommy Brunton the other as the Tangerines finally shook off a stubborn Hertford, after the home side had come back to level from two-nil and three-two down. Sam Oueniran got two for the hosts, Luke Gymer the other. We had five matches in the South East Division, and only one home win amongst them. Cray Valley PM climbed to the summit courtesy of a three-two win at Burgess Hill Town, who fell to second bottom as a result. Scott Kirkwood gave the Hillians faithful something to cheer as early as the fifth minute, but the lead lasted only sixty seconds as Denzel Gayle equalised. Matthew A-Warren put Mills ahead in the second half only for Erivaldo Felix to equalise, and then with five minutes remaining Gayle got the winner. There was a quite remarkable match at Jubilee Field. Hosts Three Bridges went into the break three goals to the good, the wandering Alex Laing and former Wanderer of the Dorking variety, Tom Tolfrey, surely giving them an unassailable lead. It turned out, however, that not only was the lead unassailable, it had been entirely overturned within eighteen minutes of the restart, as Herne Bay got three goals in three minutes- Keiron Campbell, Bradley Stevenson and Zak Ansah in forty eight, forty nine and fifty- before Tushaun Tyreese Walters made it four- three in the sixty third minute.
