A display full of quality and character was not enough to save the Baptists from defeat at the hands of Pelham. Despite several absentees, including key senior players like Steve Chapman and David Ndunduma the home side put in a tremendous performance that really tested the league leaders.

The game had to be stopped for 15 minutes early on, when a Pelham player fell awkwardly after a collision with Matt Lee and had to go to hospital with a broken wrist.

Pelham got their noses in front in the first half before a dominant second half display saw the men in orange draw level when Ollie Jeffs rose highest to power home a Dale Scowen corner kick.

The Battle side had chances to win the game through Zac Smith, Dom Fowler and Scowen before a cruel bounce in the last few minutes did for keeper Grant Lewis and the Pelham forward was left with the simple task of tapping the ball in for a hard-earned yet undeserved victory.
