Peacehaven & Telscombe 4 v 1 Arundel 16/09/2017

Richard Towers, who took caretaker control alongside vice-chairman Simon Butler for Saturday’s clash at Peacehaven before his reappointment as manager,

Towers saw his side suffer a seventh consecutive SCFL Premier Division defeat this term. Elliott Dollner fired Mullets ahead, before Peacehaven stormed back to seal a 4-1 triumph.

Arundel goalkeeper Stuart McDonald was adjudged to have brought down a Magpies player, with a spot-kick awarded. Cameron Wiltshire tucked the penalty away to level things up seven minutes in to first half stoppage-time.

Conor Wilkins, Elliot Levy and Wiltshire netted in the final ten minutes to seal a 4-1 win. Arundel, who were only able to name one substitute, ran out of steam in the closing stages - according to manager Towers. He added: “For all of an hour we were the better team and deserved something out of the game. “Only having one fit substitute made it difficult for us, and we ran out of legs. Three of the players I started with were carrying knocks, which made things tough. “I’m hoping to get some fresh faces in over the next week and hopefully we’ll start to turn things around, getting a first league win sooner, rather than later.”
