Bath in control as Sports are brushed aside

Eastbourne Borough 2 - 3 Bath City (Blue Square South)

Bath City battled to a deserved 3 - 2 victory over Eastbourne Borough on a fine spring afternoon in their Blue Square South game at Priory Lane.

Striker Wayne Gray gave Bath the lead with a powerful effort from the edge of the area in the 29th minute. Journeyman striker Clyde Wijnhard doubled Bath's lead with a well executed finish on 40 minutes.

Kouman scored with a powerful close range effort in the 50th minute to extend the lead further. Striker Andy Atkin pulled one back for Eastbourne Boro after 51 minutes with a placed shot.

Gray then had a chance to score from the penalty spot on the 54 minute mark but missed his spot-kick. Then followed controversy as Bath were denied claims by midfielder Chris Allen for a penalty. An error from Matthew Carlisle allowed striker Jamie Taylor to score a powerful effort.

Attendance: 480

One down, 4 to go. Both Chelmsford and Braintree won their home games 1-0, but Salisbury tied up there match to fall within 2 points of us.

Another away game before the big home double header vs Braintree and Salisbury.
