A first half blitz of three goals in twenty minutes ensured a comfortable win for BBFC. A lacklustre performance from Hastings APF in the first 45 meant that BBFC threatened to run riot after close range goals from Stuart and Dom, and a fine breakaway goal by Dom. Stuart also hit the bar twice with long-range efforts. Dom almost got his hat-trick at the start of the second when he latched onto Steve’s shot, but the ball flew over the bar.  One disappointment was the booking of Alan in the second half after a warning by the referee only seconds previously. This was BBFC’s first ever booking. The second half tailed off as Hastings APF got back into the game, but this result was another three points, making it 13 points from a possible 15 and also 4 clean sheets in that time as well.
