We made it three wins on the bounce on Bank Holiday Monday as Aaron Capon’s second-half strike secured a 1-0 victory over Crowborough Athletic in a sun-drenched East Sussex Derby at The Saffrons.
Following our 7-0 Good Friday win over Beckenham Town, we made just one change to the side, with JJ Walker returning from suspension at centre-half in place of Jimmy Holman.
Early Pressure and Half Chances
The visitors started brightly and tested us early on, with Winterton called into action to produce a fine save from Harry Forster after a deflected clearance fell kindly for the Crowborough man.
We soon settled into the game and began to create opportunities of our own. James Waters went close from a free-kick, while Sonny Walsh nearly produced a moment of magic with an attempted chip over Charlie Holmwood, but couldn’t quite find the finish.
Despite both sides showing intent, it remained goalless at the break.
